4-Ingredient Juicy Pot Roast

1 packet au jus gravy mix
1/2 cup butter (1 stick), sliced

Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix evenly over the roast.
Sprinkle the au jus gravy mix on top.
Place slices of butter over the roast.
Optional (for extra flavor)
4–5 pepperoncini peppers (many people add these, though the classic “4-ingredient” version skips them)
Cook
Low: 8–10 hours

Shred with a fork—it should fall apart easily. Serve with:

Rich, tender, and incredibly easy!
