Pot roast is a lot easier to make than most people think.  Select the meat, place in crockpot, top with some water, set the temperature to low or high and cover to cook.  When I first started living on my own, I used my slow cooker for everything and I still do.  I love the fragrant smell of slow-cooked beef after a long day at work.

If you’ve never made a Mississippi Roast in the slow cooker before, you’ll love how flavorful it is!  I make this recipe all the time and it’s finally just perfect to share the recipe!  Don’t skip the ranch and au jus seasoning packets for this recipe because it’s truly what gives this roast its flavor.  You can find the ranch packets by the salad dressing.  That’s usually where I find them in the grocery store.  Of course, the au jus seasoning packet can be found in the general section where all the seasoning packets are on display.

This Mississippi Pot Roast with carrots simmers all day in the slow cooker.  After 12 hours, the beef literally falls apart with just a fork.

I’ll admit, we love this roast so much that I usually start it the night before.  Two hours before bedtime, I’ll start the roast on high then switch it to low before bed.  It simmers away all night and finishes cooking by brunch.  Sometimes, I’ll let the roast simmer even longer as we really love slow cooked meat.

We love to add the carrots in at the start of this roast because some of the seasonings get absorbed into the vegetables and it tastes just like heaven.  I have heard of people that add the carrots at the end of slow cooking but I’ve tried this recipe both ways and I prefer to have all the ingredients added at once.

    This reminds me of my childhood. Pot roast was my absolute favorite thing that my Dad cooked. I love this. He didn’t use coke, that sounds interesting. I bet it caramelizes great. Thanks for sharing this!

    This pot roast looks so good! This would make a wonderful supper for Sundays and then the best part-leftovers for lunch during the week.

    What a wonderful meal for when the temperature starts to cool. Yummy and comforting. I like the touch of peperoncini in the mix of things. Reminds me of our Italian beef. And you are right — the carrots should be put in at the start.

    So I heard about making Beef Stew using pepperoncini peppers. I never have but I think I’m missing out. Thank you for sharing this recipe with me.
