Mississippi Roast is a classic beef roast dish that originated in the southern United States. It is also sometimes referred to as 'The Roast that Broke the Internet' due to its popularity on social media. The dish is made by slow-cooking a beef chuck roast in a Dutch oven with butter, beef broth, and pepperoncini. The result is a tender and succulent roast with a tangy and savory flavor that is sure to satisfy. Mississippi Roast is often served with mashed potatoes or rice and a side of steamed vegetables to make it a complete and satisfying meal.

Instructions

1.	Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
2.	Season the beef roast with salt and black pepper.
3.	Place the flour in a shallow bowl and coat the beef roast in the flour, shaking off any excess.
4.	Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and brown the beef roast on all sides.
5.	Add the beef broth to the Dutch oven, followed by the butter and pepperoncini.
6.	Cover the Dutch oven and place it in the preheated oven. Cook the roast for 4 to 5 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
