Sunday Supper {Mississippi Roast}

Ohhh, I have a good one for y’all tonight!!  Sister has been raving about this recipe for ages and I finally made it.  I really wish it hadn’t taken me so darn long because it’s SO easy and SO good!!

Mississippi Pot Roast
3-4 lb chuck roast (I just picked one that looked nice, not sure if it was a chuck roast)
pepper
packet ranch dressing mix
packet au jus gravy mix
1 stick butter
7-10 whole pepperoncini peppers (from jar)

  1. Season the meat with pepper (I wouldn’t salt it, plenty of salt in this recipe already). Set a large skillet to medium-high heat. Add a little olive oil, when the oil is hot, add the roast. Brown on all sides.
  2. Add the roast to a slow cooker.  Sprinkle the ranch packet and au jus packet on top of the roast. Add the stick of butter on top.  Scatter the peppers around the roast.
  3. Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours.
  4. Shred and return to pot to mix with juice and peppers.  Serve on couscous, rice or mashed potatoes.

Note: I skipped step 1 for lack of time.  Mine was still AMAZING!

I generally don’t like pepperoncinis but they were really yummy in this and I may or may not have fought the boys for them.  Everyone loved it.

The best thing of all?!  At Sister’s urging we used the leftovers for delish sammies!!  I split hoagie rolls, filled them with pre-heated meat and topped them with provolone.  We popped them in the oven on broil for a few minutes and they were delish.

This one is a keeper and will be on rotation until the end of time.

It was so gorgeous here in Atlanta.  It made me realize just how much I have been missing warm sunny days!  I did get out for a quick walk, but between mass, school projects, and some room mom duties, I didn’t get to enjoy it nearly as much as I should have.

Happy Sunday, y’all.

xoxo
