Step 1

Heat oil in a large skillet on high heat. Season roast on both sides with salt and pepper and sear 2-3 minutes per side.

Step 2

To the Crockpot, stir together French onion soup, 1/2 cup of the pepperoncini pepper juice (discard the rest), the pepperocini peppers, au jus packet, ranch packet and sliced mushrooms. Transfer the roast to the Crockpot. Swirl 1/4 cup water in the skillet and pour into the Crockpot. Place butter on top.

Step 3

Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours. Once complete, remove the roast, shred, and return to the Crockpot.

Step 4

Broil hoagie buns with cheese. Remove from the oven, drain and add meat/veggies to each bun, more cheese, and broil again until toasted and cheese is bubbling. Serve with Crockpot juices for dipping.
