This recipe is a classic that has been around for a while, but it’s still a favorite that is perfect for the colder winter months — or any time of year!
1 (3-3 1/2 pound) chuck roast
1 stick butter
1 package dry ranch dressing mix
1 package dry au jus seasoning mix
3-4 pepperoncini peppers (optional)
Place chuck roast in a slow cooker. Top with a stick of butter. Sprinkle dressing mix and seasoning mix over top. Add pepperoncini peppers, if you wish. Cook on low setting in a slow cooker for six to seven hours or until the roast is fork-tender and pulls apart easily.
