Hello there, roast masters! I’m in the midst of cooking a Mississippi Pot Roast, and I'm looking for ways to thicken up the gravy. It’s a bit on the watery side right now. Any pro tips or tricks to achieve that rich, velvety texture? All advice is appreciated! Thank you!

I think using a cornstarch slurry works great. Mix some cornstarch with water and stir it into the roast. It thickens up nicely!

No worries! To thicken that gravy, try mixing a tablespoon of cornstarch with equal parts water, then stir it in. It should help get that gravy nice and velvety! Thanks a bunch for the tip!

To thicken up a Mississippi pot roast, you can mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with water to create a slurry and stir it in during the last 30 minutes of cooking, or remove some liquid and reduce it on the stovetop.
