These Mississippi pot roast style beef tips are so tender and rich. These are just beef tips cooked like the popular Mississippi pot roast. It’s butter, ranch seasonings, beef gravy, pepperoncini pepper all cooked together with some juicy beef tips. Buy cut beef tips in the store or buy a roast and cut into pieces like I did. Either way, this recipe is simple and delicious and takes less than an hour to make.
Lately, I’ve been trying to think about recipes that are obvious, but just a little different and off the beaten path. I had a large chuck roast and that’s the only thawed meat that I had one night. Obviously, no time for a typical Mississippi roast recipe. All I did was chop it up and cook it in a Dutch oven like beef tips. It came out literally perfect. I made it the same way you would normally make a Mississippi roast. However, it came out more like beef tips and gravy. It was perfect and took less than a hour to make.
Equipment You’ll Need
You’ll need a Dutch oven and a spatula for this recipe. I find that stew meat or store-bought beef tips are super tough and just not that great. I like to cut up a chuck roast into beef tips. The fat makes them more tender. So, if you choose to do this, you’ll also need a kitchen knife.
Ingredients You’ll Need
Beef:
I used a chuck roast and chopped it into bits. You can always buy store-bought pre-cut tips. I find these won’t be as good, but will be more cost effective. You’ll need about 3-4 pounds.
Butter:
I typically don’t make a recipe without butter. You’ll need a half of a stick to brown your meat in.
Seasonings:
I used a mix of salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. I seasoned my meat before browning to add a little flavor.
Pepperoncini Peppers:
You’ll need a whole jar of whole pepperoncini pepper. You’ll pour in the juice too.
Ranch Packet:
I used one packed of ranch seasoning.
Au Jus Gravy Mix Packet:
I also used a packed of au jus gravy mix. This helped thicken up the gravy.
Can of Beef Gravy:
I used a can of beef gravy. It’s simple and already has lots of flavor without making homemade.
