Instant Pot Best Mississippi Pot Roast

Recipe Here!: pressureluckcooking.com/recip...
Due to the wildly unprecedented success of my traditional Best Pot Roast recipe in the Instant Pot, I felt I had to visit its sassy Southern sister, the Mississippi Pot Roast!
This roast differs from the traditional Pot Roast in the fact that the gravy strikes a balance of rich AND tangy at the same time and when paired with how fork-tender the roast becomes, it tastes like the most prestigious short ribs you'll ever have - without being short ribs.
And despite peperoncini being the core ingredient, once cooked, they aren't spicy at all! It's sort of like magic how spice transforms into tangy and makes the roast into something so grand, you'll be making this one often. SO if you fear spice, DO NOT fear this dish. It's completely mild.
The best part? Laughably easy to make and it'll be done quicker than it takes Tom Sawyer & Huck Finn to take an afternoon raft ride on the Mississippi.

I can say, without any shred of doubt, that you have one of the best KZbin channels for cooking! I made your Mississippi Pot Roast and added into the dish a dash (😉) of red wine and boom, the best goddamn pot roast I have ever tasted! I would literally put this gravy on my cereal without milk and be content lol! Seriously, I want to tell you to keep up the good work and keep posting your recipes! 😃

[@PressureLuck]

In love with this. Thank you so much!

[@michaelcorkery7108]

I cooked Mississippi Pot Roast yesterday. A friend suggested I try it, but he used a Crock Pot. I told him I would use my Instant Pot. I watched this video, pressure cooked my roast for the same time as the video. It was perfect. I watch a lot of Pressure Luck videos and learned how to use my Instant Pot. I have plenty of leftovers to bring to work for lunch. Thank you very much for these videos. 😁

[@angiecrocker9884]

My husband and I have made this recipe three times already. It is the most delicious pot roast either one of us has tasted hands down. Thank you, once again!

[@BrotherMotivational]

Well done. I made this for my family on Christmas Day while using my Instant Pot for the first time. They absolutely LOVED it! Not one person reached for salt, pepper, or anything else. I’m already being asked by my friends to make this for our Super Bowl party. Great channel, too.

[@AndreaM77]

Jeff. You have changed my life. I was scared of seasonings, growing up in the south where salt, pepper and fatback were pretty much IT. THEN I got my instant pot. And I found your channel!!! Now, I throw it all in there and experiment and I ain't scared no more!! 😂 Bless you. Thank you from Alabama. 💖

[@ceecee8757]

"Mississippi, smack ya lipssissippis!" @9:40 Yes!! Can't wait to try this. My mouth was watering the whole time! Lol!

[@megstaton3278]

OMG! Jeff, this is the best damn pot roast I have ever tasted. Hubby is raving!!! You definitely have hit another pot roast home run.

[@jodyradcliffe6525]

Love the pot roast recipe, the gravy is amazing! You mentioned how much it makes for leftovers. We turned the leftover into a simple beef pot pie using the gravy as the sauce and adding a bit more veggies. This recipe also makes an amazing pot pie!!

[@johntucker7075]

I tried it, I loved it! Cut recipe in half in my 3 qt pot, worked great. Thanks.

[@cynthiamartas]

Made this for dinner today. Old time cook here 👍. Perfect Sunday dinner and my family has passed out after eating seconds and thirds during our quarantine. It was durn good. Yes I spelled it like that on purpose 🥰 Be safe everyone

[@MsRubicon1]

I made this tonight and I added almost a whole container of sour cream to the gravy and used corn starch for thickener, took it to a whole new level!!

[@goofyleen80]

I'm gonna have to try that!!!

[@hollyodii5969]

I made this tonight! It is just as amazing as Jeffery says! And no, the dip isn't too weird or salty and the pepperoncinis are just perfect and not spicy. Heavenly gravy too!

[@Costcohotdog12]

Jeffery you made my favorite meal of all time!! I can't like this video enough. Keep up these videos because what you make is a good chance of what I try and make. (so far everything you've made that I have done has turned out amazing!!) see you next video!

[@mikitta47]

I love this roast. When I made it in my 3 quart IP, I used ranch dressing mix and onion soup mix. Turned out amazing. Thank you for doing this recipe for us. Appreciate it so much!

[@loripiontek]

I used the onion soup mix with the only small onion I had and a bottle of ranch dressing (which was all I had. ) Delish!

[@florab6970]

The absolute best! I'm a really good cook , but still getting used to my Instant Pot. Saw your video for the 1st time and decided to try this because I like pepperoncini and it's the bomb!!! Everyone is asking for the recipe, will certainly try more of your recipes. Keep up the great work

[@maryreynolds5310]

What Synfully said.....also, because of you I want to cook. I follow several KZbinrs who have cooking channels. You make cooking so easy!! For me that’s so important. I’ve never been one to understand food, what goes well with what, or how to make something good. I’ve just never been a cook! You have changed this for me 100%! I hope you realize just how important you are to many of us here...if you don’t realize it, start, because we/I appreciate you so very much for what you are teaching me! Thank you!!

[@robinclemons7044]

I made this today for Easter dinner. Oh my goodness it was amazing. The whole family loved it. There was a lot of gravy so we had mashed potatoes with it.

[@korilynntillmon2864]

This turned out so amazing! My family really loved it. Even my picky 8 year old thought it was good. I did half the recipe as stated in the directions. The meat was so tender. The technique for making the gravy was spot on. This will be a favorite of ours for sure. Thank you!

[@Roytubechin]

Jeffrey! I love your vids...best on KZbin! Thank You and keep 'em coming!

[@lexalove1154]

When the intro alone makes your mouth water you know the recipe will be amazing. The original pot roast recipe was delicious now I'm going to try this one 🤤

[@brennatracy501]

Thank you so much for addressing the spice in the pepperocinis! I wanted to try this and hate spice sp I used mild pepper rings (and it was amazing) but now I feel confident after hearing this that I could handle the jar of what it actually calls for. Thanks!

[@jennifergonzalez3216]

O My Goodness Jeff!!!!! I just made this and my family LOVED it. I was so scared to use the peperoncini because I've never had them but I read the comments and I went for it and I'm so glad I did. Keep the recipes coming, Thank you so much for sharing.

[@BigDaddyG65]

I am from near Chicago and we have this thing called Italian beef. If you do basically the same thing but use Italian dressing to replace the ranch you will have Italian beef for an amazing sandwich served on a good Italian bread and the gravy for dipping or soaking the bread. You will thank me later!

[@_gatsby]

I owned a Chicago Beef restaurant in So Cal (I'm from Chicago). BUNCH of WHINERS here, It's too wet, blah blah, or the pizza is too thick, etc, California has NOOOOO LOVE for authentic Chicago Food, I even bought Al Capones chimney to brick a wall. No one cared!!!

[@Bigheadedwon]

Jack Deagon don’t have much experience with Chicago food, but I’m from so cal and do like the beef sammichs I’ve had at Portillos.

[@irProteus]

Any Ital. Beef sandwich I've ever had, has been a different texture of beef than what you get in this recipe. If memory serves me correct, its a sliced beef as opposed to a shredded beef which is what the pot roast is

[@_gatsby]

irProteus exactly!

[@irProteus]

@@_gatsby see this link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWa6ZHd7hM-Eh6M for Chicago Johnny's Italian Beef... which uses a Top or Bottom Round cut of beef. Enjoy

[@normadouglas4213]

I have had my instant pot for about 3 years and I have tried other recipes from other people. Non of those were a hit with my family. I only use your cookbook, videos and recipes now and my family raves about my cooking. I made the Mississippi Roast tonight and when it was time to make the gravy I had my mom, husband and a daughter saying you can't make it like that! I made it the way you said to and they all loved it. I made doggy bags of gravy for them to take home. You rock!!!!!!!

[@marvingaye5669]

Made this yesterday. Super easy! I did the sliced peppers and it came out a bit spicier than I thought it would but it's incredible! I thought it was a bit salty at first (maybe consider using unsalted butter to make the gravy). But the next day, the salt had mellowed and actually it was a bit more spicy but even better!!! Love it! Will definitely make again!

[@Mommyofcurlies]

Your recipes are delicious. When you made cabbage rolls with your mom I made them and my kids requested them again and again. Can't wait to try this

[@markl.2299]

When I saw your video on the Instant Pot Roast I have to admit I rolled my eyes. I tried it anyway because I’m a curious person. The result was fantastic- it literally exploded with flavor and now it’s one of my favorite recipes. Now I’m watching this video with a great deal more respect. I’m looking forward to trying it! 😬

[@cocojo9529]

This is the PERFECT recipe! Thank you!

[@Sandra-D20]

Thank you so much for this recipe, I've never had luck cooking roast beef or making gravy and both turned out wonderfully. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent and look forward to your book in April.

[@SynfullyWkd67]

Because of you, I am a "Pothead" every since I got mine for Christmas. I only make your recipes. I tried one other person recipe and I thought my pot was shot when the burn light came on. Your recipes are the only ones I Make now. Everything comes out perfect! I hate meatloaf but made yours the other night ( added some green pepper to mine) and I actually LOVED it. Thanks for all your time and effort. Can't wait to make this one,maybe my hubby will eat roast again LOL

This is just amazing! It was my very first time trying this recipe and I absolutely love it! ❤️

[@cowboyup545]

OMG, Pressure Luck, I made this yesterday 01/22/2019 after watching this video. Except I made half the recipe. Just the wife and I. I have to tell you this was the BEST roast beef that I have ever made, So tender and the gravy was out of this world over some smashed potatoes Keep up the GREAT VIDEO"S. Thanks.

[@jacobharris2373]

Jeff....amazing! I normally make this style in a crackpot but I am going follow the steps and make it in the instant pot this week. You have NEVER let me down and I am excited to try another one of your recipes. Your channel is amazing thank you for everything!!!!

[@kyr7707]

I’ve done a lot of research and your recipe is the most flavorful. Adding garlic and brown sugar takes it over the top. I really enjoyed this dish. Only change I made was adding Worcestershire sauce like you did in the Mississippi Chicken recipe. So flavorful. I’ll definitely make this one again. That gravy is amazing. It’s lick-your-plate-clean good. I love your recipes so much.

[@peanutbutter4829]

This is the Best recipe for the pot roast I've ever made The Gravy is fabulous!!!!

Made this today and you saved our Monday night! First dish I’ve made that my boyfriend completely finished. We have no leftovers at all. Going to be a weekly staple in our home :)

[@Shelley9090]

Just made this one and it is fantastic! I've made the Mississippi Pot Roast in my slow cooker a couple of times and it was really good. Your Instant Pot reinterpretation of this recipe is out of this world, and spot on in flavors. However, the meat is even more tender and delicious. I thought you could never beat your original pot roast recipe (which we love!), but this one is tied for winner. Thanks again for another out of this world Instant Pot recipe.

[@maryreynolds5310]

OMG...my mouth is watering!! Thank you so much for this recipe! And kind Sir, thank you for explaining things instead of just doing it.

[@loripiontek]

Delight! husband loves this recipe and has made it in the instant Pot for several years now. He became the Instant Pot king by using your recipes! I tried it my 1 at time tonight with onion soup mix and Ranch dressing w/ the au jus mix. The heavy was rich and creamy and delicious! You are a mensch! Todah!

[@rdalby35]

Phenomenal! Best gravy I have ever had anywhere!

[@sadie4me2]

OMG.....CANT WAIT! I was almost sorry I bought this pot.....you are changing my mind.

[@davisreid7265]

Just saw this today and made it for dinner. Holy smokes.... it was packed full of flavor the acid from the peperoncini cut through the rich gravy and it was perfect. Can’t wait to try your other pot roast!!

[@gayleboyken6447]

Oh my, that looks so good! I'll have to make that soon!! I love those peppers.

[@ctcynderella]

It's also good made with chicken too ! The chicken comes out so soft and flavorful. Obviously way less cook time too.. I love this recipe both ways 😋

[@ktuc1358]

ctcynderella can you post the chicken recipe please?

[@lamonadb]

OMG, so very yummy!!! I made this recipe with just 5 peperacini's & 1/3 cup brine. I added 1/2 cup red wine & pork butt instead of beef. It's absolutely fantastic. Added mashed potatoes & fresh green beans, perfect dinner. Thank you for your fabulous recipes as this is not my first recipe to cook of yours & my family has never been disappointed.

[@bnm0312]

I made it this evening and it was a huge success! The meat was so tender and full of flavor. I used the "deli-cut" pepperoncinis so you don't have to cut the stems off! Next time (and there will be a next time!), for ease, I'll brown the meat in my cast-iron skillet.

[@loripiontek]

That's what I do, too. Brown it in my skillet. Part of that reason is because I need a step stool to teach the top of the Instant Pot! haha

I did a whole chicken the other day and now I need to sell my showtime rotisserie because the PC did the same thing if not better in 20 minutes :) Side note: to avoid the sticking issue; hot pan + cool fat= non stick. :) Heat the pan first, add the fat/oil, then the meat right after the oil/fat and it will not stick.

I had something similar in just a regular crock pot with almost the same envelopes but without the peppers and thickening agent. It was good but it took much longer and had to sear in a different pan. This looks better because of the peppers. I'm am strictly counter top cooking now. Got introduced to the Instant Pot late but i have arrived.
