Mississippi Pot Roast Sliders

Mississippi pot roast sliders are stuffed with tender chuck roast, tangy pepperoncini peppers, and melty provolone cheese tucked inside sweet Hawaiian rolls.

Why this recipe works

Mississippi pot roast sliders are easily my favorite way to use up leftover pot roast. In fact, they were born entirely from using our instant pot Mississippi pot roast recipe.

Nothing beats the tangy, pull-apart tender chuck roast that the instant pot provides. All the flavors meld together in the pressure cooker creating a melt-in-your-mouth experience. Sandwich it all between soft Hawaiian rolls? You have my heart.

Ingredient Info and Substitution Suggestions

ROAST – You can make the roast using our slow cooker Mississippi pot roast (good for taking on the go) or our instant pot Mississippi pot roast (good for hosting, or as a quicker method).

CHEESE – We used deli-sliced provolone but Swiss, muenster, Havarti, mozzarella, or pepper jack are all great options as well.

BREAD – Sweet Hawaiian rolls pair really well against the robust flavors of the meat and peppers. You can make homemade Hawaiian rolls or buy them prepackaged from the store. Otherwise, you can use any type of bun you prefer.

Serving Suggestions

Mississippi pot roast sliders are the perfect party food whether it be for football, potlucks, or just as dinner. These sliders do well all on their own, but if you’re serving them for dinner and would like a side they pair well with au gratin potatoes, mashed potatoes, or something lighter like roasted broccoli, carrots, or a dinner salad.

For potlucks or larger crowds try serving them with potato chips, pasta salad, potato salad, or a tray of veggies.
