Keto Crock Pot Beef Roast Ingredients

The ingredients for the keto crock pot butter beef roast recipe are the same as the Instant Pot version. Ranch seasoning which I buy by the bottle, zesty Italian dressing mix, banana pepper rings, and butter.

How to make slow cooker butter beef

Simply put the beef roast into the slow cooker or crock pot. I have put the roast in frozen before. Cover the roast in the seasoning mix, the banana peppers with the juice reserved, and the stick of butter. Just add about ¼ cup of the pepper juice. Put the lid on and let the butter beef roast cook.

Cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours. When it has cooked, shred apart with two large forks or use a knife to get the beef separated apart. You can serve this over potatoes or mashed cauliflower if you are on the keto diet. My family even enjoys it on buns like an Italian beef sandwich.

Tips for making low-carb crock pot butter beef

Use any kind of beef roast for this recipe. I prefer chuck roast, but if you find a good sale on a different roast, it should work just find.
Don't put too much of the banana pepper ring juice in the crock pot with the beef. It may end up being too salty.
You can substitute the Italian seasoning packet for a mix of Italian herbs. If you do this, you can put more pepper juice in since the herb mix will be salt-free.
The leftovers are great too. Don't be afraid to double the recipe and enjoy the leftovers the next day.

  Absolutely. Just won’t be as tangy. Use a bit of beef broth or water to add more liquid as well.

The Protein amount makes this almost not able to be eaten unless you fast for the whole day. 65gms??? In order to get 4 servings out of this recipie, each serving would have to be 12 ounces each....I had to cut it down to 12 servings each being 4 ounces each. That is more reasonable.
Unless my calculations are off the serving size and amount is incorrect.

Made this with a frozen brick roast from my deep freeze and it is now my Monday meal. I used a quarter cup of the reserve pepper juice as suggested and cooked on high for 6 hours. I personally made a sandwich using a fresh hogie and a slice of provalone cheesr and thought it was the best thing I have ever made, my lady had hers like a roast (as is and on a plate) and was upset I only made a 3lb roast for the two of us to share.

I made this for dinner today. I put the roast in the crock pot frozen, followed the recipe to the letter, and 9 hours later had the most delicious beef ever! It literally fell apart when I went to shred it so it was very quick and easy. I served it with mashed cauliflower. My husband went nuts for it! By far the best new recipe I've found in years. Thank you!!!

I have never liked a pot roast before making this dish. It’s so tasty and everyone in the family loves it. Now part of our regular rotation. We added small creamer potatoes and carrots, it comes out great.

LOOOOOOOVE this recipe.
I use a whole jar of whole pepperoncini's. The rings don't stand up to the length of cooking and I don't eat the beef, only the peppers (seeds included) and they are BRILLIANT with jasmine rice. SOOOO GOOD!! Especially because the whole peppers fill up with the yummy flavors and are so very, very juicy.
I don't add any water; only dump the whole jar of peppers, with all the juice, into the pot. I've also used an entire 32oz jar, or two 16oz jars...more peppers, the merrier - in my opinion.
I have never tried it with an au jus packet, like most people seem to, and am nervous to even try because I have picky eaters and they already love this, as-is.
