Directions

  1. 1. Place the thawed tri-tip roast in the bottom of the crockpot.
  2. 2. Add the stick of butter, pepperoncinis, and 1/4 to 1/3 cup ranch seasoning depending on how strongly seasoned you want the roast.
  3. 3. Peel and wash the russet potatoes, cut them into thirds, and pack them around and over the roast up toward the top of the crockpot.
  4. 4. Cover and cook on LOW for about 6 hours, until the roast is tender and the potatoes are fully cooked.
  5. 5. Serve the roast with the potatoes and cooking juices. The potatoes are one of our favorite parts because they absorb the butter, pepperoncini, ranch, and beef juices.
