My prep isn't pretty, but I did banana peppers instead of peppercinis and added some of the juice from the jar. I also did a quick browning of the meat. Standard ranch packet and au jus packet.

    I have done the same. Still tasty!

    I made this for the first time a couple weeks ago. It was by far the best pot roast I’ve ever had!

    I was a bit skeptical at first, since the recipe doesn’t call for any liquids. But by the time it was done, there was plenty of liquid in there.

    Protip: After browning of the meat, put the ranch & au jus powders directly on the roast(as a dry rub)versus just mixed in the braising liquid. The roast’s flavor is deeper I find, and I can fortify the gravy if it’s bland with more au jus. I tried it both ways so you could pay attention to this if you want to try it later.
