Storage Tips

1. Cool Down:

Before storing, allow the roast to cool to room temperature. This helps avoid condensation and moisture buildup when stored in a container.

2. Storage in the Refrigerator:

Container: Place the leftover roast, along with any sauce or gravy, into an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag. This helps preserve the flavor and prevents odors from affecting other foods in the fridge.
Storage Time: Store it in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

3. Storage in the Freezer (for longer-term storage):

Package Properly: If you want to store Mississippi Pot Roast for an extended period, wrap the roast tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Then, place it in a freezer-safe, airtight container or a freezer bag to prevent freezer burn.
