Mississippi Pot Roast

Mississippi Pot Roast

Ingredients:

  • Approximately 3 pounds of Riverbend Cattle Co. dry-aged chuck roast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 packet au jus mix
  • ½ cup salted butter
  • 5-8 pepperoncini peppers
  • ¼ cup juice from pepperoncini jar
Instructions:
  • Heat a large skillet with olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Season roast with salt and pepper.
  • Quickly sear each side of the roast in the hot skillet. (You can skip this step to save time, if necessary) Transfer roast to slow cooker.
  • Add all remaining ingredients to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours.
  • Once tender, remove roast from crock and shred into large pieces using 2 forks.
  • Return to gravy. Serve warm and enjoy.

Notes:

This recipe is a big hit here! Not only is a chuck roast my favorite, hands down, but this recipe is also so easy and simple. Especially with easy sides like cornbread and a simple vegetable!

  • Don’t add any additional liquid. It will make enough on its own as it cooks.

  • To reheat, spread meat out on a baking sheet. Bake at 350°F for about 7-10 minutes, or until heated through. Heat gravy on the stove in a saucepan or in the microwave in a microwave-safe dish. You can also reheat meat in the microwave for a quicker method.

  • Storage: Store covered in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
