Calories 415 kcal
- 2-3 lb Chuck Roast (I prefer un-trimmed)
- 4-6 Golden Yukon Potatoes
- 2 C Baby carrots
- 1/2 C Onion
- 2 C Beef broth
- 1 T Worcestershire
- 2 T Soy sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 4-6 Pickled Pepperoncini's
- 1 Bay leaf
Season your roast on all sides with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Optional (but recommended) step: quick sear the outside of your roast in the skillet with a Tablespoon butter for about 3-5 minutes each side. Browning the outside of your roast will help to trap the juices inside the meat and will add a savory smokiness to your finished roast!
Place your roast in the crockpot and add quartered potatoes, chopped onion, whole baby carrots, and broth. Add sauces and bay leaf or preferred extra seasonings/herbs of choice. Finish with whole pepperoncini's and add a tablespoon of the juice from the pepperoncini jar. Toss lightly to ensure all contents have been covered.
Cover and cook on low for 10+ hours. I've found the sweet spot to be between 11-12. You'll know it's ready when it easily falls to shreds when poked with a fork!
