FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:<\/h2>\n
\n
Can you cook Mississippi Pot Roast on high? <\/strong> <\/p>\n

No. The meat comes out so tender and buttery by cooking it low and slow in the crock pot.\u00a0Cooking it too quickly will result in a tough cut of meat that does not shred easily. Also, keep the lid on while cooking. Don\u2019t keep lifting it and messing with the meat. This will result in tough meat that is hard to shred.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Do I have to use packet seasonings? <\/strong> <\/p>\n

Of course not! Try making your own Homemade Ranch Seasoning<\/a> and your own Homemade Dry Onion Soup Mix<\/a>. You\u2019ll need about 2 Tablespoons of the ranch seasoning and about 3 Tablespoons of the onion soup mix for this recipe. This will also help you control the amount of sodium in the recipe as well. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Can I use margarine instead of real butter? <\/strong> <\/p>\n

It\u2019s not recommended. The butter adds a lot of flavor to this. Margarine is basically oil. Use the real stuff here. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

What can I serve with Mississippi pot roast?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

Mississippi pot roast is delicious served with Crock Pot Mashed Potatoes<\/a>, rice, pasta, or vegetables like carrots, green beans, or broccoli. You can also serve it with a side of crusty bread, Butter Swim Biscuits<\/a> or rolls to sop up the flavorful cooking juices.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Can I use another cut of meat?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

A sirloin tip or rump roast will work. You want a cut of meat that will shred after it is finished cooking.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Do I have to use the pepperoncini peppers? <\/strong> <\/p>\n

They really add a lot of flavor to this dish so I wouldn\u2019t skip them. It doesn\u2019t add spiciness like you think it would. If you absolutely insist on substituting you can try using some dill pickles and a bit of pickle juice. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Do I need to add additional liquid?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

No. Do not add additional liquids. The meat itself along with peperoncini and the melted butter will produce enough juices. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Can you add potatoes and carrots?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

Yes, you can add them in at the start of cooking. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Why is my Mississippi Pot Roast tough?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

It hasn\u2019t cooked long enough or you opened the lid while cooking. Refer to my answer above about cooking this low and slow. Trust me, you just cannot rush this or you\u2019ll be severely disappointed. And do not open the lid while cooking as this also disrupts the cooking process. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Can this be frozen?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

Leftovers can be frozen. Just place in a freezer safe bag and remove all of the air. It will keep frozen for up to 2 months.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
