    Ingredients you need to make Mississippi Pot Roast:

    Pot Roast - We used a boneless chuck roast in this recipe. You can also use a tri-tip roast, London broil or round roast. I like to use whatever is on sale at the market!

    Pepperoncinis - You'll need about 10 whole pepperoncinis with some of the juice.

    Butter - Salted or unsalted butter both work fine in this recipe. You'll need a half stick or ¼ cup.

    Beef Broth - We used low sodium beef broth but you can use regular beef broth, or beef bone broth. If you are in a pinch, chicken broth or vegetable broth will work as well.

    French Fried Onions - You'll need about one cup of French fried onions. You can get these at any grocery store. These add such a delicious flavor to the recipe!

    Seasoning Blend - Dried Parsley + Onion Powder + Garlic Powder + Black Pepper + Dried Dill + Paprika + Ground Mustard

    Tools to have on hand:

    • Slow Cooker – You will need a slow cooker to make this recipe. 
    • Measuring Cups + Spoons – To properly measure the ingredients for this recipe.
