Step 1

Place the chuck roast in the crockpot. Sprinkle ranch powder and au jus gravy mix all over the beef roast.

Step 2

Place pepperoncinis on top of the roast. Place a stick of butter on the top of the peppers.

Step 3

Put the lid on and set it on the low setting. Cook for 8-9 hours. Do NOT open the lid to check on the roast until it has cooked for at least 8 hours on low. This roast may be cooked on high for 5 hours but I wouldn't suggest it as it won't be as tender.

Step 4

Shred the beef with two forks. Taste for seasonings and add salt and pepper, if needed. Serve with the gravy on top of mashed potatoes.
