Mississippi Pot Roast
Report
This 5-ingredient beef recipe is one of my family's favorite comfort food dinners. Fork-tender and flavorful, this easy pot roast recipe comes together in your slow cooker.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 (3 to 4 pound) boneless beef chuck roast (see note 1)
- 1 cup whole pepperoncini peppers and 1/2 cup of juice from jar, plus more for serving
- 1 (1 ounce) packet Ranch dressing mix (see note 2)
- 1 (1 ounce) packet au jus gravy mix or brown gravy mix
- 1 tick butter cut into large pieces (1 stick)
Instructions
- Place beef in slow cooker. Top with 1 cup pepperoncini peppers and 1/2 cup pepperoncini juice. Sprinkle au jus gravy mix and ranch dressing mix over beef and peppers. Top with butter pieces.
- Cover slow cooker and cook on low until meat is fork-tender, about 5 to 8 hours.
- Remove the beef to a rimmed baking sheet and shred with 2 forks, discarding any gristle, large pieces of fat, and pepperoncini. Serve on top of mashed potatoes or as sandwiches, garnishing with pepperoncini as desired.
Notes
- Beef roast:I like chuck roast best here (also known as shoulder steak or boneless chuck roast). Your butcher may also recommend brisket or round roast (another name: rump roast.) Each one of them excels at long, slow cooking. Choose a size that will fit in your Dutch oven. A 3.5-quart pot can hold a 3-pound roast well. If you’re sizing up to 6 quarts, choose a 4.5-pound roast.
- Ranch mix: To make homemade ranch dressing mix, whisk together 2 tbsp. powdered buttermilk, 2 1/2 tsp. dried parsley, 1 tsp. dried minced onion, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 1 tsp. onion powder, 1/2 tsp. dill weed, and salt (I like 1/4 teaspoon).
- Yield: This recipe makes 12 servings, 3 to 4 ounces, cooked roast per person.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
