Mississippi Roast

This is an easy meal to set in the crock pot in the morning before you head to work. It is the most flavorful meat, and makes excellent leftovers as well!

Prep Time: 

5 minutes

Cook Time: 

Ingredients: 

• 1 chuck roast (I use 2-3 lbs for my family)
• 2 tbsp cooking oil (I use avocado)
• Pinch of salt, pepper, garlic powder
• 1 stick of butter
• 1 packet of ranch dressing mix
• 1 packet of onion soup mix
• 8 whole pepperoncini (and a bit of the juice)

Instructions: 

1. I prefer to make this in my instant pot because I can prep and slow cook all in one container!
2. I heat my instant pot to sauté on high for 10 minutes. As soon as it heats, I add the oil, then the beef roast. I cover it in the salt, pepper, and garlic on all sides. (If you are using a traditional crock pot, you can do this process in a pan and then transfer to a crock pot when it's time to slow cook.)
3. Sear the meat on all sides until it has a nice coating (1-2 minutes per side). 
4. Turn the instant pot to slow cook (8 hours on low, 4 hours on high)
5. Add the remaining ingredients right on top of the beef. 
6. Let the pot do it's thing all day long. Serve at supper time. We love to eat this with baked or mashed potatoes.
