Best Beef Roast Slow Cooker/Crockpot/Ninja

Name: Best Beef Roast Slow Cooker/Crockpot/Ninja
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 3 lb Beef chuck roast (3-4 pound) if you use smaller one, just use half the ingredients in recipe; 1 packages McCormick Au Jus Gravy envelope pack; 1 packages Hidden Valley Ranch dry mix dressing envelope pack; 1 jar (MT. Olive Pepperoncini Peppers.regular not hot *Use only about 5 peppers, and ALSO reserve some of the juice from jar.; 1 Yellow onion- sliced in strips; 1 stick UNSALTED BUTTER-you can use less, but use Atleast half a stick. It's better using a whole stick though.; 1/2 envelope Beefy Onion soup mix. You can also use just the regular French onion soup mix one, if you can't find the beefy onion soup one. 1 or 2 envelope packs come in a box, just use 1/2 of one envelope from the box.; As needed-Meat tenderizer, garlic powder, onion powder; 3/4 cup Water-the water is better to me, since this roast gives off its own broth. And it makes a lot of gravy, and broth with the water, broth from roast cooking, and then the packets that go in it too. So use water, and not any type of can broth.; 1/2 cup pepperoncini juice from jar-this really gives it the best flavor to the gravy. These peppers and juice are not hot, make sure you get regular.

Love this roast, so tender and good! I cook mine in my ninja cooker. It makes Alot of gravy. I served it over some steam rice I made in my rice cooker. Although, in my pic I just spooned a little bit of gravy from the pot over mine, but you can put however much you want over yours, because it makes a good bit. I also served this with my Mexican cream cheese corn which is also very good!!! You can also serve this roast on hoagies sandwiches, and dip into a side of the gravy. I do it both ways sometimes.

Steps

1

Season both sides of roast with meat tenderizer, garlic powder and onion powder and sear it on stovetop until it's got that brown color on both sides. And then put it into your slow cooker/crockpot. I have a ninja so I can just that on my stovetop function, in the same pot I'm gonna cook it in.
2

Add the water and pepper juice to pot. Also, the sliced onions.
3

Now...sprinkle all on the roast, and around it - the 1 pack of McCormick Au Jus Gravy packet first, the 1 pack of Hidden Valley ranch packet, and then the beefy onion soup mix packet on roast. Then lay the whole stick of butter on top of the roast. Then scatter the peppers on top of the roast, all around the butter.
4

Cook on high 4-6 hours or low 6-8 hours. Serve over rice. (you can click on this picture and it will show you the whole and bigger pic). ALSO, my mexican cream cheese corn recipe is on here too.
