Mississippi Pot Roast
This Mississippi Pot Roast is piled high with tender smoked and braised chuck roast, mozzarella, peppers, and creamy Sriracha aioli on toasted French bread.
Ingredients
- 2-3 Whole loaves French bread
- 4 lbs chuck roast
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2-3 tbsp Your favorite beef seasoning
- 1 Whole onion
- 1 bottle Pepperoncini
- ½ bottle Mild banana peppers
- 4 cloves Smashed garlic
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 1 Lager beer
- 1 tbsp Dried basil
- 1 tbsp Dried oregano
Sriracha Aioli
- 1 cup Mayo
- 2 tbsp Sriracha
- 1 tsp BBQ seasoning
- 1 tsp Dried basil
Instructions
- Pat the chuck roast dry. Coat it with hot sauce as a binder, then season generously with beef seasoning.
- Preheat the smoker to 250°F and add apple wood chunks.
- Place the chuck roast on the smoker and smoke for about 3 hours, or until a deep mahogany bark develops.
- Add the sliced onion and garlic to a Dutch oven.
- Place the chuck roast in the Dutch oven. Add the juice from the pepperoncini along with half of the pepperoncini, the banana peppers, beef broth, lager beer, oregano, and basil.
- Return the Dutch oven to the smoker and increase the temperature to 275–300°F.
- Cook for about 2 more hours, then begin checking the roast for tenderness. It should be probe-tender with very little resistance.
- Remove the chuck roast from the Dutch oven and place it in an aluminum pan. Rest for 20–30 minutes.
- Shred the beef and return it to the Dutch oven with the cooking liquid. Simmer for another 20–30 minutes.
- Cut the French bread into approximately 6-inch sandwich rolls. Butter and toast the bread.
- Combine the mayonnaise, Sriracha, BBQ seasoning, and dried basil to make the aioli.
- Strain the meat and solids from the cooking liquid, reserving the liquid for dipping.
- Spread Sriracha aioli on the toasted bread. Add shredded beef and mozzarella cheese.
- Serve each sandwich with the reserved au jus for dipping.
