Pressure cooker will make it fall apart tender

Put it on the stove in a pot just like you would your vegetables,add salt,pepper,garlic salt,sun jus gravy mix,dry ranch seasoning ,banana pepper rings and a little of the juice. You can add your carrots and potatoes. Cook on medium heat for about 4 hours and you will thank me later. My oven went out in 1989 and I was determined to cook that roast and I have been fixing that way every since.

We season ours. I pour about 8-12 ounces of coke (regular only coke don’t substitute; my son gets the rest of the 2 liter) placed in Dutch oven and baked at 200 for 12 hours (overnight) our oven shuts off at 12 hours. Perfect every time and I use the drippings to make gravy

How long do you cook it?

Sear it first on both sides. Make pan really hot and add butter. 3 minutes each side. It will lock in moisture. Then add to crock pot with your usual ingredients.

If it's coming out tough you're not cooking that long enough. Sometimes you literally have to cook roast all day long. Especially if it's not a tender cut meat. I always cook mine in the crock pot.
