Crockpot Mississippi Roast

This crockpot recipe can be find on numerous blog and recipe sites for the simple fact that its very easy and very tasty.  I don't use as much butter and ranch dressing mix as many of the recipe sites, but it still turns out great!

Printable Recipe

Ingredients

3-4 lb. chuck roast
½  packet of Ranch Dressing mix
1 packet of Au Jus mix
½  stick of butter
5-6 pepperoncini peppers  (whole or rings)

Note: I'm not a huge fan of peppers so I use only a few to flavor the dish, as you will see in the picture below.  Also note that no water is needed for this recipe.  You can use the entire packet of Ranch Dressing mix, but it will be on the salty side.

Directions: 

Place roast in crockpot and sprinkle Ranch dressing packet and Au Jus mix packet over the top.  Add peppers and place butter on top on roast.

Cook on Low for 8 hours.  I like to stir this after the butter melts to ensure that the gravy incorporates all the wonderful flavors.
