Common Questions
Why is my roast still tough?
The roast hasn’t cooked long enough. Some cuts of meat, especially thicker cuts just take a little more time than others. If the meat is tough, continue cooking another hour or until beef is easily shredded.
Is the roast spicy?
No, not at all. You can easily control the heat by adding more or fewer pepperoncini. If you want the roast spicy, double the number of pepperoncini that we have indicated.
