Description
The crowd-pleaser known as Mississippi pot roast features a beef chuck roast cooked with ranch dressing, au jus mix, and pepperoncini peppers until the meat is meltingly tender and flavorful. This oven-braised version is extra-easy. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Sara Mellas.

This is a time commitment, but worth it. I didn't catch to do a dry rub and made the gravy instead by mistake. It still turned out great. Will make it again for sure. had plenty for leftover lunches all week long. I knew it was good when the neighbor took 3 servings. 😆

Wowzers. This made me look like such a good cook. This was insanely delicious. We loved the kick from the pepperoncinis! I even had a 9-year-old boy at the table who enjoyed it. We also made some garlic mashed potatoes that I found on Yumly and it was a perfect pairing. Very happy chef!!!!

My 15 year old son took the first taste of the a little after 3 hours of roasting. His eyes got big and his jaw dropped. He loved it!! And so did I.
I followed the recipe exactly. It turned out amazing! Soooo GOOD!

this recipe was a little off. it doesnt need beef broth for it makes its own juice.instead of 1 tablespoon of butter it takes one whole stick of butter just put it all in a crock pot and slow cook for 8 hours its very delicious
