Mississippi Pot Roast Instant Pot Recipe
Description
This Instant Pot recipe uses a 3 to 4 pound chuck roast layered with ranch seasoning mix and topped with a stick of butter and half a jar of pepperoncini peppers along with their juice. Beef broth is poured around the roast before sealing the pot and cooking under pressure for 70 minutes. The stew is finished with a natural release and a quick release to ensure tenderness.
The peppers add a subtle piquancy without spiciness, resulting in a soft, shreddable meat infused with buttery and tangy flavors from the butter and pepperoncini. Shredded roast is stirred into the remaining sauce, creating a moist, flavorful dish.
This pot roast can be served as a hearty main dish accompanied by sides such as mashed potatoes or vegetables. The leftovers keep well refrigerated up to five days.
Ingredients
- 3-4 pounds chuck roast
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix (1 ounce packet)
- 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
- ½ jar Pepperoncini peppers 16 ounces, with the juice
- ½ cup beef broth
Instructions
- Place your roast in the bottom of your instant pot.
- Sprinkle the ranch mix over the roast.
- Place the stick of butter on top and pour the Peppercinis with juice over it.
- Pour the beef broth around the roast.
- Add the lid and make sure it is turned to sealing. Click the manual button and change time to 70 minutes.
- After the cook time, allow the pressure to release naturally from the instant pot for 15 minutes and then do a quick release to release any remaining pressure from the instant pot.
- Shred the beef with 2 forks and then stir the beef back into the sauce in the instant pot.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Pepperoncini peppers provide mild flavor but feel free to use banana peppers if you prefer a less tangy option.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
