Mississippi Pot Roast

By Beth Jorgensen 2 hours+

Ingredients

  • Beef chuck roast, 4-5 pounds
  • ½ 32 oz jar pepperoncini
  • 1 envelope Hidden Valley Ranch mix
  • Beef broth to cover
  • 2T wondra flour
  • Mashed potatoes or noodles for serving

Method

  1. Place beef in crockpot, top with ranch mix and prick with fork all over to tenderize meat.
  2. Add pepperoncini and ½ of liquid from jar. Add enough broth to barely cover meat.
  3. Cook on low for approximately 4 hours until meat is falling apart.
  4. Remove meat chill liquid separately.
  5. Shred meat and remove fat.
  6. Skim fat from liquid once solidified and strain.
  7. Make a gravy by adding 2T wondra flour to heated liquid and boil away until hot and slightly thickened.
  8. Add shredded meat to heat through and serve. I have peeled and julienned a large parsnip and cooked with the meat. I then removed the “french fry” shaped parsnips and roasted in 400F oven as an additional side.
