Why is it called Mississippi Pot Roast?
A woman from Ripley, Mississippi adapted a recipe that was given to her in the 1990s. She modified the ingredients and the result was a pot roast that was later named a Mississippi Pot Roast.
She shared it with a friend who included it in one of those community cookbooks. And, the recipe became an overnight sensation.

Can I substitute brown gravy for the au jus mix?
I love the way this Mississippi Pot Roast tastes with au jus mix. Au jus mix is typically made from a roast and condensed. Beef gravy mix is made from a roast and thickened with cornstarch.
But, you can substitute a beef gravy mix or dry onion soup mix if you don't have au jus mix.

Mississippi Pot Roast without pepperoncini
Yes, if you cannot find pepperoncini peppers in your grocery store, you can leave them out. It will still taste delicious. And, it will still fall apart easily.
You can also substitute banana peppers for the pepperoncini peppers if you have those instead.
