Mississippi Pot Roast & Broiled Sub Recipe

 I'm sure you've heard of Mississippi Pot Roast before, and I of course did not come up with the recipe myself! I have noticed inconsistencies amongst the available recipes when Google searching it. Some differ in amount of butter you add, some in the pepperoncini amounts and some might add different seasonings to the roast once it's in the slow cooker. 

Below you'll find our favorite way to make a Mississippi Pot Roast and also what we do with the delicious leftovers! 


Ingredients:

Chuck Pot Roast (We usually grab a 2 lb or little bigger roast from Aldi as they are quite a bit cheaper than Walmart.)

1 stick (8 TBSP) unsalted butter

1 packet Au Jus gravy seasoning 

1 packet ranch seasoning

5 or 6 pepperoncini (This depends on how spicy you like your food! If you're not a spice fan, I'd recommend adding 4 or 5. The flavor is incredible so don't skip in fear of spice!)


Add pot roast to slow cooker.

Empty both seasoning packets to top of pot roast.

Add butter in several chunks to top of pot roast

Place your pepperoncinis on top of roast and place lid on pot.

Cook in Crockpot on low for at least 8 hours.

That's it! Your home will smell amazing while this slow cooks all day. We like to have mashed potatoes on the side and dinner rolls with a vegetable like asparagus or broccoli. No need for making gravy for your potatoes because the juice left in the crock pot is phenomenal as gravy!

Now, for what we do with the leftovers... 


Of course you could just have the same meal again, but if you're looking for something a little different here's what we like to do.

Grab some hoagies from your grocery store and sliced or shredded Colby jack cheese (or your favorite. Pepper jack is so good, but of course a bit spicy.)

Turn your oven to a low broil. Place hoagies face up (think open face sandwich) 

Apply warmed pot roast to the subs and then add sliced cheese on top. 

broil til edges of bread are browned and cheese is bubbly. Broilers can be so fickle, so make sure you watch for any signs of burning! About 3-4 minutes. 

That's it! You could sauté some peppers and onions as well and add after the broiler step. If you have any juice left it's also good to dip it into the gravy. 

I hope you enjoy! This is one of our very favorite meals. 


With heart from our home,

Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

 I had a few hours to myself today and decided to search for a good single serving chocolate chip cookie recipe. I found one by cookingclassy.com and thankfully it turned out so great! It was similar to the taste and size of Crumbl Cookies chocolate chip cookie (they are my favorite!) The dough is a very crumbly consistency so I recommend once you have your baking sheet lined with parchment paper to just dump it on top and form it into a large disc. I had a hard time trying to get the dough to come together so I opted to do this instead. See the recipe below! Ingredients: 2 TBSP butter (I used unsalted) 3 TBSP packed light-brown sugar. 1 pinch of salt. 1 TBSP whisked egg (crack egg in bowl and mix up well then scoop out 1 TBSP and add to your bowl.) 1/4 tsp vanilla. 1/3 cup all purpose flour. 1/8 tsp baking soda. 3-4 TBSP chocolate chips.  Recipe: Melt butter in microwave until only a little left is unmelted. mix together so that all is melted. Place butter in fridge to cool s...

Easy Chili Recipe

 I recently made a large crock pot batch of chili on a cold Saturday. We took the pot to my in-laws house and enjoyed it together. My MIL made delicious corn bread (she said it was Zattarans boxed mix) and cajun crackers to eat along with it.  The chili was SO easy, packed with protein, cheap to make and our 3 year old loved it! See recipe below. Ingredients: 1 lb ground beef 1 lb ground turkey 2 onions, chopped Garlic Powder to taste 4 cans diced tomato 1 can tomato sauce 1 can chili beans 2 cans kidney beans 2 packs of chili powder (ours was from Aldi) Recipe: Brown ground turkey, ground beef and two onions in skillet. Add garlic powder. Drain and place in crock pot. Add in all other ingredients in pot and mix well. Cover and place on low for flavors to come together. We left ours on low for about 4 hours. Pair with corn bread, saltines or crusty bread! Easy and delicious cold weather meal. I hope you enjoy! With heart from our home,  Jordan
