Recipe tips and notes

  • This recipe makes 8 servings which is a lot but the leftovers were really good and make great sandwiches. You can try a low carb bread if you are a roast beef  sandwich fan. 
  • I used a jar of mild banana peppers and this dish was not hot – spicy wise. I’m not even sure they make hot banana pepper rings but I would stick with the mild.
  • The cream is not totally necessary but if you are going to use it add it at the end. Try to whisk the ingredients together at the end but it probably won’t get real smooth but it will taste delicious!
  • I used a chuck roast because I feel they have to most flavor and are inexpensive. Use what ever cut of beef you normally use for a pot roast and it will work fine.
