On the Menu – Mississippi Pork Roast

It is crock pot time year round at my humble abode, but when it is chilly outside, I really love using it to make roasts and stews. This has to be the hands down, easiest recipe I have ever made. It took 5 minutes prep time, then cooked low and slow in my crock pot. Such a yummy dish served over potatoes or even on some ciabatta sandwich rolls! This is a fantastic meal to serve to a crowd that is so beyond easy and delicious. Enjoy!

Serves 6

2 lbs. pork tenderloin

1 packet ranch seasoning mix

1 packet au jus seasoning mix

6 pats of unsalted butter

8 whole pepperoncinis

1/4 cup juice from pepperoncinis

Salt/pepper

Put all ingredients in the crock pot and turn on low for 6 hours. Shred and serve over potatoes, on a sandwich or alone!
