Recipe ingredients

• London broil steak. In this recipe we are obviously using London broil steak which is reflected in the name of the post. Try to get fresh meat, but frozen will work as well. Thaw is overnight in the fridge or on the counter for a few hours.
• Ranch. I use dry ranch powder but you can definitely use about 1 cup of ranch dressing instead.
• Brown gravy. This gravy is sold in small paper sealed packs in pretty much any grocery store.
• Butter. Needed in this crock pot London broil recipe to create that melt in your mouth texture since London broil cut doesn't have much fat in it.
• Pepperoncini peppers. They add a nice pleasant spice kick . Become soft when cooked and extra delicious when soaked in gravy.

How to make London broil slow cooker recipe with ranch

Rinse steak with cold running water and pat dry with paper towels. Heat oil in the large skillet. Brown meat in the pan on both sides for about 2 minutes each side. You need the meat to be well browned but not burned.

Browning process is important and adds lots of extra flavor to the dish. If you think you don't have time for this you can skip this step as the final dish will be delicious either way. I didn't brown steak this time as you can see in the pictures. The flavor was still fabulous!

Transfer steak to the crock pot and add all other ingredients. Season steak first with ranch and brown gravy mix and than place butter on top. Peppers can be arranged around meat or on top as well. No extra liquid is need since the butter will melt and steak will release lots of juices.

Also no other spices are needed in this crockpot London broil recipe. Since ranch dressing has a very rich flavor. Brown gravy will thicken juices and also has a ton of flavor in it. If you like mushrooms you can substitute brown gravy to mushroom gravy.

Cook on Low for 8 hours or on High for 5. If you want London broil to cook faster, cut it in large chunks. This way you can cut cooking time by an hour or two. I do this all the time to speed up cooking process.

Meat substitutes

London broil steak is not the only one cut of meat you can use in this recipe. Chuck roast is my other favorite cut that is amazing when slow cooked. Pretty much any tough cut of meat will do great in crock pot and will come out tender. Bottom round and top round is a great choice too.

Brisket is more expensive but delicious meat for any slow cooker creations. I will stick to cheaper cut due to its price and availability. After all the meat will be so tender and juicy either way.

Besides beef you can use pork or chicken. Get a pork shoulder and you will have delicious shredded pork dinner with ranch and a spice kick. Chicken thighs (boneless) are great since they have some fat in them, but chicken breast will work too. It will soak up all the flavors and will be juicy.

Cook it in oven

Mississippi London broil roast is easy to make in the oven. Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. In the large skillet heat the oil and brown meat on both sides. Transfer to the roasting dish. Add the rest of the ingredients right on top. Top the dish with lid or foil. Bake for 3 hours or until the meat is shredded easily, covered.

Cook it in pressure cooker

Any pressure cooker will work (Instant pot, Ninja Foodi etc...). Heat oil in pressure cooker using saute button. Sear London broil for 3 minutes on each side. Cut meat in smaller chunks and add o your pressure cooker.

Add other ingredients PLUS ½ cup of water, close and lock the lid. Pressure cook (high pressure) for 80 minutes. Naturally release the pressure for 15 minutes than quick release the rest. Shred and serve.

What to serve it with

My favorite way to eat slow cooker London broil steak is of course with mashed potatoes. They are so creamy and the gravy just pairs so well with it! Try to make sweet mashed potatoes or even mashed zucchini.
My second favorite is plain white rice.

Rice soaks all the steak juices and becomes extra delicious. On the picture below there is a slow cooker London broil steak served with brown rice and quinoa mixed together. Also a great option!

More healthy side dish options are steamed or roasted asparagus, Brussels sprouts or some broccoli. These will be nice for a late dinner or just a low carb meal.

Do not forget to top cooked meal with chopped green onions or chopped cilantro. It will brighten colors and great for additional flavor.
