Let’sget started the recipe :
In a small bowl, mix the ancho chili powder, brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, cumin, and allspice together to make the Chili Seasoning. Set aside.
Season the roast pieces with 1 TBS of salt, 2 tsp black pepper, and 1 TBS of the Chili Seasoning.
Heat the vegetable in a pan.
Sear the roast pieces until all sides are brown. Do this in batches until all pieces have been seared. Do not crowd the pan.
Remove the roast.
In the same pan, add in the onion, bell pepper, and jalapeños.
Sauté until the veggies take on some color and the fond (brown bits at the bottom of the pan) have lifted and combined with the veggies.
Spray the Crockpot (slow cooker) with nonstick cooking spray
