A low-carb twist on the classic Mississippi pot roast, served as tender, flavorful beef wrapped in crisp iceberg lettuce leaves for a fresh and satisfying keto meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 lbs beef chuck roast
  • 1 packet (about 1 tablespoon) ranch dressing mix
  • 1 packet (about 1 tablespoon) au jus gravy mix
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick, 113g) butter
  • 1/4 cup pickled jalapeños, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 head iceberg lettuce leaves
  • Optional toppings: sliced pickles, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream

Instructions

  1. Trim excess fat from the chuck roast and pat dry. Rub ranch dressing mix and au jus gravy mix evenly over all sides.
  2. Place butter in the bottom of the slow cooker. Add minced garlic and chopped pickled jalapeños to the butter.
  3. Place the seasoned roast on top of the butter mixture. Pour any remaining seasoning over the top. Add cayenne pepper if using.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours or on high for 4-5 hours until meat is fork-tender and shreds easily.
  5. Shred the roast directly in the slow cooker using two forks, mixing it with the buttery sauce. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Separate, rinse, and pat dry lettuce leaves to prepare for wraps.
  7. Spoon generous amounts of shredded pot roast onto each lettuce leaf. Add optional toppings as desired.
  8. Serve immediately to enjoy warm meat and crisp lettuce.

Notes

Do not rush the slow cooking process to avoid dry meat. Shred meat directly in the slow cooker to soak up sauce. Adjust seasoning gradually and prepare lettuce just before serving to keep it crisp. For dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut or avocado oil and use dairy-free ranch seasoning. Instant Pot can be used with sauté and high pressure for 60-70 minutes with natural release.
