Print Recipe

A simple and delicious slow-cooked pot roast recipe that yields tender, juicy sliders perfect for parties and casual gatherings. Made with pantry staples and cooked low and slow in a crockpot for melt-in-your-mouth flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 lbs beef chuck roast
  • 1 oz ranch dressing mix packet
  • 1 oz au jus gravy mix packet
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 6–8 pepperoncini peppers
  • 1/4 cup pepperoncini juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 12–16 slider buns (Hawaiian rolls recommended)
  • Optional: provolone or cheddar cheese slices
  • Optional: pickles or extra pepperoncini for garnish

Instructions

  1. Pat the chuck roast dry and trim excess fat, leaving some for flavor. Lightly season with salt and pepper on all sides.
  2. Place the roast in the center of a 5-7 quart crockpot.
  3. Sprinkle ranch dressing mix and au jus gravy mix evenly over the top of the roast without rubbing in.
  4. Cut the butter into 4-5 pats and place evenly on top of the roast.
  5. Arrange pepperoncini peppers on and around the roast and pour 1/4 cup of pepperoncini juice over it.
  6. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours until the roast is fork-tender.
  7. Check for doneness; if not tender, cook an additional 30-60 minutes on low.
  8. Shred the meat in the crockpot using two forks or tongs, mixing it with the juices.
  9. Slice slider buns in half and pile shredded pot roast on the bottom buns.
  10. Optionally top with cheese slices and broil until melted.
  11. Cap with the top buns, add extra pepperoncini or pickles if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

If crockpot runs hot or roast seems dry, add a splash of beef broth or water before cooking. Avoid opening the lid during cooking to maintain heat. For gluten-free, use gluten-free buns or lettuce wraps. Butter is key for rich sauce; do not skip. Let meat rest before shredding to lock in juices. Leftovers taste better the next day.
