People are taking Mississippi Pot Roast and making it into more sinfully delicious things

The steadily rising popularity of Mississippi Pot Roast—the ultimate Pinterest-friendly recipe that originated in Ripley and has turned into a supper staple among busy moms nationwide—has given way to plenty of variations when it comes to ingredients, cook time and even how to prepare it.
