  • Author: Avery

Description

This Slow Cooker Pepperoncini Beef Roast is the kind of effortless comfort food that fills your home with irresistible aroma and delivers melt-in-your-mouth tenderness. The combination of juicy pepperoncini, fragrant rosemary, and slow-braised chuck roast creates a bold, tangy, deeply savory flavor that pairs beautifully with mashed potatoes, rice, or toasted rolls. It’s hearty, simple, and guaranteed to become a family favorite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 1 jar (16 oz) pepperoncini peppers, with juice
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast with salt and pepper, then sear each side for 3–4 minutes until beautifully browned.
  2. Transfer the roast to the slow cooker. Add the sliced onion, minced garlic, and the entire jar of pepperoncini (including the juice).
  3. Mix the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and chopped rosemary in a small bowl. Pour evenly over the roast and vegetables.
  4. Cover and cook on LOW for 8–10 hours or HIGH for 4–6 hours, until the beef is fork-tender.
  5. Let the roast rest for a few minutes, then shred and serve with the pepperoncini-onion mixture spooned over the top.

Notes

  • For extra richness, add 2 tablespoons of butter during the last hour of cooking.
  • If you prefer a thicker sauce, stir in a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch + 1 tablespoon water) and cook on high for 20 minutes.
  • This dish tastes even better the next day as the flavors deepen.
