- Heat avocado oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Sear the beef for about 3 minutes per side until a nice crust forms. Remove the beef and set aside. Add the broth to the pan and scrape up the brown bits. Add the beef back to the pan and add the pepperoncinis, pepperoncini juice and giardiniera on top.
- Cover and transfer to the oven. Cook for 3-4 hours until the beef is tender. Remove from the oven and shred the beef.
