I love a simple dinner that just happens to be delicious. Mississippi pot roast is tender, flavorful, and no fuss. With just five ingredients, it can’t be any easier. Place everything in the crock pot and walk away for eight hours. It’s that easy. Make some mashed potatoes to go along with the wonderful gravy that results from meat, butter, and au jus cooking all day. Dinner is served.
The pepperoncinis add a nice, yet subtle, flavor. I like to add some of the pepperoncini juice to the slow cooker, but you don’t have to. Ranch dressing and au jus make the roast so tasty. If you want a super easy and super flavorful roast, give Mississippi pot roast a try. My family loves this recipe and I think you will too.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Matthew 5:6
Mississippi Pot Roast
Ingredients
1 chuck roast (2 to 4 lbs.)
1 packet ranch dressing mix
1 packet au jus gravy mix
4 tablespoons butter
4 to 6 pepperoncinis
Instructions
- Place the chuck roast in the slow cooker. Sprinkle ranch dressing mix and au jus gravy mix over the top of the roast. Put the butter and pepperoncinis on top of the mixes.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
- Shred with forks and serve over mashed potatoes with the delicious gravy. Enjoy!
Notes
*Add a little of the juice from the pepperoncini jar for some added flavor.
*Use as little or as many pepperoncinis as you like.
*No water or liquid is needed. The juices from the meat and the butter will make plenty of gravy.

I haven’t been consistent with blogging or monthly recipes and you may not like everything I share. If you want me to just send you a copy each time I share a recipe, that’s fine. I can do that, I just don’t want to go through the trouble if it’s not a recipe you want. I’m just sharing recipes that I like or I know my readers will appreciate.
