Equipment

Ingredients

32 oz pkg frozen meatballs
1 (1 oz) pkg au jus gravy mix
1 (1 oz) pkg ranch dressing mix (see notes below)
½ cup water
¼ cup pepperoncini juice or can use beef broth for less spice
½ cup butter (I think you can get by with 1/4 cup butter)
8 pepperoncini peppers

Instructions

Add the frozen meatballs to the bottom of a 6 quart slow cooker.
Mix the au jus gravy mix, ranch dressing mix, water, and pepperoncini juice (or beef broth) in a small bowl. Pour the sauce over the meatballs and stir to coat them.
Cut the butter into about 8 pieces and place the pieces on top of the meatballs.
Add the whole pepperoncini peppers on top the meatballs.
Cover and cook on low for 3 hours. Stir every half hour to prevent the meatballs from burning.
Stir together to coat the meatballs well before serving. Serve on top of mashed potatoes or rice.
