Instant Pot® Mississippi Roast

We seared the roast in a skillet with olive oil before moving it to the instant pot. We also added extra pepperoncini because we love it! This was our first meal with the instant pot, and it turned out so much better than when we cook this same type of roast in a crock pot!

I made it exactly as the recipe stated and it was AMAZING!! Would definitely make again.

Substitute hot pepper rings for pepperocini. Makes a fabulous French Dip (lots of broth). A great way to use leftover roast is to cook noodles half way, drain, put back in pan. Put frozen peas on top. Add heated roast and plenty of broth. Cover and cook on low stirring once until noodles are done.

Amazing! The only modifications I made were to salt, pepper, and sear the roast first in olive oil (5 minutes per side on the saute setting), and I added some fire roasted red peppers that I happened to have in a jar in the fridge. Tender, juicy, huge flavor and just the right kick.

This was GOOD! I used this as a base to what I wanted to do with my instant pot. The peppercinis add so much needed flavor but I got a little out of control adding the juice - so beware and control the pour!!! Ours in probably too spicy for our lil toddler man who is two years old so more for us haha. It was done in 2 hours like the recipe says and it was so tender. I seared the roast using sautée method on my instapot first and a little bacon grease. I also used two gravy mixes at the beginning of the recipe mixed with 2 cups water (instead of boullion or beef broth). I also had italian packet instead of onion soup mix. I added onion and carrots besides the peppericinins on the top. Definitely going to be a staple in my instant pot recipe book!!! So good.

This is wonderful! Flavorful and juicy, made just as in the recipe. Will definitely make again.

Everyone in my family absolutely loved this. It was so tender and moist and the flavor was wonderful. Will definitely make this again.

I made it exactly as the recipe was written, in an Instant Pot. I think it was cooked too long as the meat was dry.

Followed recipe to the T. Came out delicious. Definitely recommend this recipe.

But when you print the recipe, the subscription ad prints over the directions!

I used sliced pepperonis and it was great! Everyone got some pepperoni (and their wonderful flavor) with each bite! This is definitely part of the meal rotation from now on.

I make this all the time in my crock pot. It is so good, easy and flavorful. I like to add potatoes and carrots so they also have that great flavor. I also make the sauce into gravy after the roast is done. It is so good!

The flavor of this roast was amazing and so tender! I didn't have a packet of ranch mix so I substituted with 3 tablespoons of ranch dressing. I also added 1 red onion thin sliced like another reviewer suggested as well as seared the roast on both sides prior to adding the rest of the ingredients to the pot. We made mashed potatoes to go with this and made a gravy using the broth from the roast. It also reheated really well which was great! For leftovers we made a french dip style sandwich which was also awesome. Will definitely be making this again.

I used the drippings to make a gravy, shredded the beef and served it over egg noodles. EVERYONE loved it.

We loved this! It was tender and flavorful. I didn't have peperoncini so I used green chiles. I made my own onion soup mix also. I will definitely make this again.

I had to make a couple of substitutions and made a few careless mistakes. I didn't have pepperoncini so I used a jar of sliced jalapenos with the juice, I didn't have onion soup mix but used what I always have on hand, vegetable soup mix - I completely forgot the butter until the roast was almost cooked so didn't use it at all. I did sear the 6 chunks I cut up of the 5 pound roast and then added all the other ingredients. It was absolutely delicious - a little too spicy for some but that was because I used jalapenos. The meat was super tender and moist and I will definitely make again without the butter. Thanks so much for a great and easy recipe! I'm rating only 4 stars because of my mistakes and substitutions - I'm pretty sure the butter takes this dish of the charts - but I think I'll continue to make it without.

This was great!

This is a wonderfully delicious recipe as is. So easy and so scrumptious! I will make this again and add it to the dinner repertoire.

I cooked for 1 hour 10 minutes instead of 110 minutes. It was well cooked and tender. I used Pickled Vidalia Onion Strips in place of the pepperoncini peppers. I seared the beef first. I used 1 envelope gravy mix combined with one cup water and 1 cup beef bullion. I sliced the butter to distribute it more evenly. The roast was still frozen mid-afternoon, and by dinner time it was tender with a tasty au jus.

I love this recipe! So easy and I love putting the meat over rice! Definitely would recommend this recipe to anyone! Favorite meal ever!

Mostly followed the recipe, except browned the meat first using saute function. The Au Jus is delicious, used it for french dip sandwiches a few days later.

It was excellent! I used sliced pepperoncinis so nobody got a mouthful of pepperoncini instead of a small flavoring. Definitely loved how fast it was made in the Instant Pot.

I added carrots, cut into larger than normal chunks, and they had so much flavor! Two thumbs up from both me and hubs!

I used Oxo Beef rather than onion soup mix but added slivered red onion. The result was wonderful.
