Mississippi pot roast

[smilie]

Has anyone made this? I've read so many recipes but don't know which one to follow.

 

[Owlpost23]

I have.I didn't care for the flavor profile.

To contrast the only post so far, it's the only way I make it, it's that good, LOL.

I don't do a recipe. There's no need for all the added fat, most recipes have massive amounts of butter. Why?

I just dust the roast with ranch seasoning, and put it in the pot along with pepperoncini and that's that.

Never heard of it, so I googled it. Looks delicious!
I’m gonna make it.

Yes, I make it on occasion in the winter. I saw it on the Today Show years ago and this is the recipe I follow. (I use sliced pepperoncini peppers)

One of my husband's favorite meals!

This is the recipe I use. Don't make it much, but it's good in the fall/winter.

Is it made from possum or muskrat??

I actually use the McCormick's seasoning packet and follow the directions out of convenience-but it's super simple to make. My family loves it. Also, it says "instant pot" recipe on it, but I use it in my crock pot

I was skeptical the first time I made it, but the family loves it.

I'd never heard of this, interesting recipe...I'm not much of a fan of dry ranch seasoning though, but looks worth a try once.

I made it once, when pregnant, and it was so foul that I couldn't even attempt again for years.

I have made riffs on it in the recent years. Being vegetarian, I can only assume them eating it means it tastes alright. I am not super thrilled with the sodium content on it, but it's a rare make.

I'd never heard of it, but from the recipes it doesn't sound appealing to me. I'm not a fan of ranch or pepperoncini. I'll stick with my mom's pot roast.

Yes, I occasionally make it. I got a recipe off pinterest years ago, I didn't realize there were different ones.
I love how salty it is, and I don't mind the butter because I eat low carb

 

[elgerber]

Yep, we love it. My dd who didn't used to like meat, is the one who told me about it. One of her friends made it and she loved it. She chose it for her birthday dinner last year.

I'm waiting for this to make it to a Slo Poll morning.

The recipe I use was similar to Mississippi Roast but used zesty Italian seasoning instead of ranch so that's what I have used (or just my own spices if I don't have a mix packet).

Looking at some of the other recipes, mine is a bit different.

I season and sear my roast first so it has more flavor and some nice caramelization.
I use Italian dressing mix instead of ranch.
I use an entire jar or more depending on how much meat (including all the liquid) of sliced pepperoncini peppers (or a combination with spicy banana peppers). The peppers basically melt and are incorporated when you shred up the meat.

We eat this as sandwiches on nice rolls so the bread absorbs the flavor and you can dip it in some of the liquid from the roast.

intersting, my husband LOVES banana peppers, maybe I will change it up next time.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll give it a try...my usual go-to are a large jar of Dill pickles or the good old onion soup packet and cream of whatever mixed together. I need a new method.

Learn about something new all the time.
My entire paternal family is native to, and still resides in, Mississippi, and I've never once, in my nearly 60 years of life, heard of Mississippi pot roast.
Maybe it talking referring to the river and not the state? That would explain it
Or do I put it in the same category as Nashville Hot Chicken, which I'd never heard of till about the past 10 years, or less, despite having moved to Nashville when I was 2 and living within a few hours of it since. Having quizzed anyone I grew up with we came to the same conclusion, it's a new invention since Nashville became a destination outside of those coming for country music. None of us get the bachelorette thing, but that's a whole other subject.....

That's how I do it too! Sear with S&P, add to crock pot, douse with zesty Italian and jar of sliced pepperoncini.
