Mississippi Pot Roast Cheesesteak | Super Bowl Special | Food Wishes

Hello, this is chef john from foodwishes.com with mississippi pot roast cheesesteak.

That's right, i made a cheesesteak with what is arguably the best braised beef recipe ever, and it was so amazing i

had a share. And according to my sources in new orleans, the timing for this is perfect.

So with that, let's go ahead and get started with the five ingredients we're going to need for the beef, which

will be four to five pounds of beef chuck roast.

And then we'll also need two packets of magic dust in the form of powdered ranch dressing mix, as well as some powdered au jus, and

then we'll also need some mildly spicy pepperoncini peppers, as well as half a cup of the brine they're packed in.

And then last and certainly never least, an entire stick of unsalted butter that we cut into slices. And please

notice, i had to buy two beef chuck roasts to make five pounds, right?

A common mistake with this recipe, people just buy one of these roasts, but

then use the same amount of the other ingredients, which ends up coming out way too salty in my opinion.

So make sure you buy enough beef or cut the other ingredients in half. And what we'll do is take our meat and

head to our slow cooker, or in my case, instant pot.

And what i did is poured in a little bit of vegetable oil, since besides the slow cooker setting, an instant pot also has a saute setting.

So i figured, hey, let me go ahead and

brown the meat first, since brown meat always tastes better than non-brown meat, generally. Right?

In the classic recipe, the meat is not brown first, so

if you are using a slow cooker, you can just transfer the meat.
