Healthy Mississippi Pot Roast

This healthy(ish) Mississippi pot roast is not only absolutely delicious but is SO easy to throw together on a busy week and requires just 5 ingredients. Set the crockpot and forget it until you're ready to serve! I suggest serving with some homemade mashed potatoes and a side salad for a balanced and delicious dish your whole family will love!

Equipment

  • 1 6 Quart Crock Pot or Slow Cooker
  • 1 Large Pan

Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 Pounds Chuck Roast
  • 1 Packet Kinders Bone Broth Gravy This packet is used instead of the Au Jus Gravy Mix Packet.
  • 1 Packet Ranch Seasoning Feel free to make your own ranch seasoning at home!
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Avocado Oil
  • ½ Jar (8 ounces) Peperoncini Peppers Add more or less depending on desired spice level
  • ¼ Cup Peperoncini Pepper Juice from Jar

Instructions
 

  • Sear the Beef. Heat a large pan or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear your beef chuck roast for about 4-5 minutes on each side. This helps lock in flavor and builds those delicious brown bits that enrich the gravy. If you have a multicooker, you can also sear straight in the multicooker.
  • Load the Crockpot. Transfer your roast to the crock pot or slow cooker. Sprinkle on the Kinder’s Bone Broth Gravy Packet, then the ranch seasoning mix. Drizzle with some avocado oil, then add in your pepperoncini peppers plus a splash of their liquid.
  • Slow Cook. Cover and cook on low heat for 8–9 hours (or on high for 4–5 hours) until your roast is fork-tender and practically falling apart.
  • Shred + Serve. Shred the beef with two forks, letting it soak in the rich beef juices. Serve hot over mashed potatoes, cauliflower rice, or alongside green beans and a crisp side salad for freshness.
  • Hint: while you can cook this pot roast on high, low and slow is the way to go!
    Hint: Add chopped baby potatoes and carrots directly into the crockpot or slow cooker along with your beef to make an easy one pot meal. You may need to slightly increase cooking times to make sure they are soft, tender and cooked through!
