Never would have thought to add pepperoncini… sounds like an excellent pot roast.

That Montreal Steak Seasoning is also good to season soups. I made a batch using leftover beef from the Christmas roast, Polk's spicy pork sausage (I microwave it like venison sausage rolled up in paper towels to lighten the grease load), a 24 oz. bag of frozen mixed vegetables, a bag of cut okra, a quart of beef broth, a large can of crushed tomatoes, and a large can of diced tomatoes. Bring to a gradual boil then simmer for about 45 minutes. Season to taste and enjoy.

The photo below is before it came to a boil. I transferred some to another pot so it wouldn't boil over.
