Instructions
Directions
- In a large bowl, mix together ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, ranch seasoning, au jus gravy mix, chopped pepperoncini, pepperoncini juice, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir gently until just combined to maintain tenderness—avoid overmixing!
- Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it on parchment or foil inside the crock pot. For even cooking, use rolled foil balls to elevate the meatloaf slightly above the bottom of the pot.
- Top the meatloaf with sliced butter and arrange extra pepperoncini slices on top.
- Cover and set your slow cooker to LOW for 6 to 7 hours or HIGH for 3 to 4 hours.
- Once cooked, let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Spoon the flavorful juices over the sliced meatloaf and serve alongside comforting sides.
Notes
Optional: Garnish with fresh parsley for added color and flavor.
