There’s nothing quite like a slow-cooked roast that melts in your mouth with every bite.

This Mississippi pot roast combines savory seasonings, butter, and tangy pepperoncini for a dish that’s hearty, flavorful, and comforting.

It’s the kind of meal that feels effortless but tastes like it’s been simmering with love all day.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

The slow cooker does all the work, making this meal nearly hands-free.

It’s rich, juicy, and tangy with the perfect blend of butter, spices, and peppers.

The roast is versatile—serve it with potatoes, rice, or in sandwiches.

It’s always a crowd-pleaser for family dinners or gatherings.

What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Beef chuck roast is the star cut, perfect for slow cooking until tender.

Ranch dressing mix adds creamy, herby flavor to the meat.

Au jus gravy mix deepens the savory richness of the dish.

Unsalted butter ensures a juicy, melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Pepperoncini and their brine bring a zesty tang that balances the richness.

Pro Tips Before You Start

Sear the roast before slow cooking for extra depth of flavor.

Use unsalted butter since the mixes already contain sodium.

Adjust the number of pepperoncini based on your spice preference.

Cook on low for best results—slow cooking makes it fork-tender.

Shred the roast directly in the slow cooker to mix with the juices.
