EASY INSTANT POT POT ROAST (TENDER AND JUICY)



Easy Instant Pot Pot Roast (Tender and Juicy) image

How to make Instant Pot pot roast that is so tender, it melts in your mouth. This easy recipe makes ultra-flavorful beef guaranteed to satisfy the entire family. Use an Instant Pot or another brand of electric pressure cooker. The best cuts of beef for pot roast are tougher cuts of meat like chuck, brisket, and round. Baby potatoes are optional. They get very soft and can be served whole or mashed and served alongside the pot roast. The carrots, celery, and garlic add a lot of flavor to the dish. They will become quite soft after cooking. If you like them this soft, feel free to serve them with the beef. If they are too soft for you, leave them off the plate and consider them flavoring agents. FAQ: If you do not have the same size cut of meat as called for in the recipe, assume 20 minutes of cook time for every pound of meat. So a 4-pound roast will need 80 minutes of cook time and a 5-pound roast will need 100 minutes of cook time.

Categories     Main Dish

Time 2h30m

Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 pounds beef chuck, brisket, or round, see notes
Salt
1 ½ teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 large onion
5 medium carrots (12 ounces)
4 celery stalks
5 to 6 garlic cloves
1 ½ tablespoons high heat cooking oil
3 cups beef broth
1 to 2 bouillon cubes or use bouillon mix, optional, see notes
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
4 rosemary sprigs
4 thyme sprigs
1 bay leaf
12 ounces baby potatoes, optional
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons corn starch
2 tablespoons cream, optional

Steps:

  • Season all sides of the beef with a generous amount of salt (2 to 3 teaspoons) and then set aside, at room temperature, for one hour.
  • Meanwhile, make a spice mixture by stirring the onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper until blended.
  • Prepare the vegetables. Peel and cut the onion into large chunks. Peel the carrots and remove the ends. Slice the carrots and celery into thick long sticks. Smash garlic cloves with the flat side of a knife and peel away the skins.
  • After an hour, use paper towels to pat the beef dry on all sides (this helps the meat brown), and then rub the beef on all sides with the spice mixture. The beef should be well seasoned on all sides with the spices. (You might have some leftover.)
  • Add oil to the bottom of a 6-quart Instant Pot (or electric pressure cooker). Select the "Sauté" setting and choose high heat. When the oil is hot and shimmering, add the beef. Cook until well-browned on all sides, about four minutes per side. Transfer the browned beef to a plate.
  • Add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic cloves to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally until they start to sweat and lightly brown around the edges, about 6 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a plate.
  • Pour in the broth, bouillon, and apple cider vinegar, and then use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pot (not doing this may result in an error while cooking at pressure).
  • Turn the 'saute' function off. Place the beef back into the pot and scatter the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic around the beef. Add the rosemary, thyme, bay leaf, and baby potatoes (optional). It is okay if the liquid in the pot does not completely cover the beef and vegetables.
  • Select the "Pressure Cook" or "Manual" function and cook on high pressure for 60 minutes. Note that the timer will not start until there is enough pressure inside the pot, so the timer may not start for a few minutes. If your roast is not 3 pounds, you will need to adjust the cook time. As a general rule, when cooking beef roasts in a pressure cooker, assume 20 minutes of cook time for every pound of meat.
  • When the cooking time is up, do not immediately open the lid and instead let the pressure naturally release for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, release the remaining pressure by using the quick-release button (be careful to keep your hands and face away from the venting steam).
  • Taste the liquid and adjust with additional salt and pepper. Transfer the beef roast to a cutting board and gently shred to your desired size and place onto a serving platter.
  • If you added them, remove the potatoes and gently mash them for serving or serve whole on the platter alongside the pot roast.
  • The remaining vegetables will be very soft, if you enjoy them this way, transfer them to the serving platter. If you do not like vegetables to be so soft, you can discard them. They have already done a wonderful job of flavoring the broth and roast.
  • Serve drizzled with some of the liquid left in the pot. (Or make a quick gravy.)
  • To make a quick gravy with the liquid left in the pot, use a strainer to remove any bits of vegetables and herbs from the liquid. Select the "Sauté" setting and choose high heat then bring the liquid to a boil and cook until it reduces by a quarter, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the cornstarch and water together. When the liquid has reduced, slowly whisk in the cornstarch mixture. Continue to boil until the gravy thickens. Turn off the pressure cooker, and then season the gravy to taste with additional salt, pepper, or spices. (For a creamier gravy, add a small splash of cream.)

PRESSURE-COOKER POT ROAST



Pressure-Cooker Pot Roast image

With an Instant Pot or pressure cooker, the classic Sunday afternoon pot roast can be on the table in under two hours -- without ever turning on your oven. We seasoned this one with North African ingredients -- dates, olives, and oranges -- but remained loyal to the traditional American chuck roast, which, like other inexpensive cuts, braises well. This recipe appears in our cookbook "Martha Stewart's Pressure Cooker" (Clarkson Potter).

CL BEEF POT ROAST AND GRAVY - 6-QT PRESSURE COOKER



CL Beef Pot Roast and Gravy - 6-Qt Pressure Cooker image

Entered for safe-keeping, adapted from Julianna Grimes, September 2010 Cooking Light. Calls for 6- or 8-quart pressure cooker. For best results, use Pressure Cooker Beef Stock for lower sodium but rich taste. Don't omit the parsnips or turnips -- they provide a very mellow flavor. I don't see many potatoes labeled Yukon Gold any more; now they might be called "yellow". A serving = 3 oz. beef, 2/3 cup vegetables, and 2 tablespoons sauce.

RED WINE POT ROAST (PRESSURE COOKER)



Red Wine Pot Roast (Pressure Cooker) image

Easy and delicious. This is extremely flavorful, so you can dial down the spices a bit, but it is amazing! I use an electric PC, but I also have a stove top, and I think the times would be the same for either. Cut the pieces into serving pieces beforehand, so each is browned and simple to serve. Use a drinkable red wine. I buy box wines to keep on hand for cooking, and they are perfect for this. I serve this with garlic roasted mashed potatoes and honey-glazed carrots.

SL ROAST WITH ONION AND MUSHROOM GRAVY - 6-QT. PRESSURE COOKER



SL Roast With Onion and Mushroom Gravy - 6-Qt. Pressure Cooker image

Entered for safe-keeping, adapted from Donna Davidson in November 2000 Southern Living, times are for 15 psi 6-qt. (or larger) stovetop pressure cooker. See notes at the end of directions for necessary changes to prepare in an electric pressure cooker, such as Instant Pot. 5/24/18: I loaded the recipe as I would prepare it in a 6-quart Instant Pot electric pressure cooker; it is available here: http://www.food.com/recipe/sl-roast-with-onion-mushroom-gravy-6-qt-instant-pot-535868

Provided by KateL

Categories     Roast Beef

Time 38m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 -3 lbs boneless chuck roast, trimmed
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix
2 beef bouillon cubes
2 cups water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Sprinkle roast evenly with pepper. Place in 6-quart or larger pressure cooker.
  • Add mushroom soup, onion soup mix, beef bouillon cubes and 2 cups water.
  • Secure lid. Over medium-high heat, bring to HIGH pressure (2nd bar,15 psi). Adjust heat to stabilize just at high pressure. From moment high pressure was reached, cook 20 minutes. (Check recommended cooking time in your manufacturer's manual.).
  • Remove from heat and use quick pressure reduction method recommended by your manual. The recipe recommended running cold water over the lower edge of the cooker.
  • Remove lid, directing steam away from you.
  • Remove roast, and keep warm.
  • Stir together cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water. Add to liquid in pressure cooker. Bring to a boil, then cook for 1 minute.
  • Serve gravy with roast.
  • -- MODIFICATIONS FOR USING ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER, added May 11, 2018 --.
  • DO NOT ADD canned condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup during Step 2. The safety sensors of the new electric pressure cookers will give a "Burn" error if you do. (We'll add the condensed soup after pressure cooking.).
  • For an electric pressure cooker, cook at High pressure for 40 minutes.
  • DO NOT RUN COLD WATER OVER THE LID of an electric pressure cooker for quick release! Allow pressure to reduce naturally for 12 minutes, then you can do a quick release of remaining pressure.
  • Add the Cream of Mushroom soup after pressure cooking, before the cornstarch step. If you want to make your own condensed cream of mushroom soup, "This Old Gal" recommends: 1) in a liquid measuring cup, whisk 1 cup cold milk with 2 Tablespoons cornstarch until well blended. 2) Add to pressure cooker pot, press SAUTE button. 3) Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons butter, 1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules (or Better than Bouillon), 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt, and a dash of pepper. Oh, and add a (drained) small can of mushrooms or 1/4 cup of sauteed mushrooms to make it "mushroom" soup. (Or, if you are a Mushroom Lover, saute 8 ounces of mushrooms on the stove, and add them to the pressure cooker pot at this point.) 4) Heat to a boil, stirring frequently. 5) Simmer on low for one minute more to thicken.
  • After incorporating the cream of mushroom soup ingredient(s), decide if you still need to add the additional 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of cold water to reach desired consistency.
