Ever since the Crock Pot Mississippi Beef Roast hit the scene, we have been “Mississippi” crazy around here. Now, truth be told, I don’t have the first clue why this flavor combo is dubbed Mississippi other than my guess is it originated from a home kitchen in Mississippi, but regardless, we just love the flavor. So much so we have a whole library of Mississippi- style recipes:

Can I add vegetables to a Mississippi Roast?

One of the most common question I get asked is how vegetables will do cooking along side a Mississippi Roast. So this weekend when I was making a Crock Pot Mississippi Pork Shoulder, I decided to add my favorite roast veggies to see how I liked the flavor combination. The results were fantastic… and will change how we make our Mississippi dishes from here on out. We loved the flavor and the convenience of having a one-pot meal.

Notes on Slow Cooker Mississippi Pork Roast with Vegetables

If you don’t like peppers, don’t worry… we don’t eat the pepperoncinis we just use them to add flavor during cooking. If you are not a fan of their flavor, feel free to leave them off.
I have made this recipe with all varieties of pork roasts. If you choose a leaner roast like a tenderloin or a loin, I like to add 1/4 cup more butter and 1/2 cup of water to dilute the mixes since not as much liquid is produced as it is with a fatter roast.
