CHUCK ROAST FOR INSTANT POT

Steps:

• Turn on your instant pot and set it to "saute". In a small bowl stir together salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Rub mixture all over the roast to coat all sides.
• Drizzle oil in instant pot, wait about 30 seconds, then use tongs to place roast in the pot. Do not move it for 3-4 minutes until well-seared and browned. Use tongs to turn the roast onto another side for 3-4 minutes, repeating until all sides are browned.
• Switch instant pot to "pressure cook" on high and set to 60-80 minutes (60 for a 3 pound roast, 80 for a 5 pound roast. see notes if using baby carrots). Add potatoes, onions, and carrots to pot (just arrange them around the roast) and pour beef broth and worcestershire sauce over everything. Place lid on the pot and turn to locked position. Make sure the vent is set to the sealed position.
• When the cooking time is up, do a natural release for 10 minutes (don't touch anything on the pot, just let it de-pressurize on it's own for 10 minutes). After 10 minutes, turn vent to the venting release position and allow all of the steam to vent and the float valve to drop down before removing the lid.
• Transfer the roast, potatoes, onions, and carrots to a platter and shred the roast with 2 forks into chunks. Use a handheld strainer to scoop out bits from the broth in the pot. Set instant pot to "soup" setting. Whisk together the water and corn starch. Once broth is boiling, stir in corn starch mixture until the gravy thickens. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
• Serve gravy poured over roast and veggies and garnish with fresh thyme or parsley if desired.
• Recipe Notes.
• If you'd like to use baby carrots, keep in mind that they will cook much faster than large chunks of whole carrots. To make sure they don't turn to mush, set your pressure cooking time 10 minutes shorter than the recipe states and leave the carrots out of the pot. Once the pressure cooking time is finished, add baby carrots to the pot and set the pot to pressure cook for 10 more minutes.
• The recipe is written for a thawed roast. If using a frozen roast, you will need to add about 20-30 minutes to your pressure cooking time. You can also skip the searing step and simply rub the spices on the roast and then place it in the pot and then move ahead to the pressure cooking step.

INSTANT POT ROAST WITH GRAVY

Steps:

• Press Saute button on electric pressure cooker to heat up pan. When the display says "Hot", add the oil, and wait until it shimmers.
• Sprinkle roast evenly with pepper.
• Brown chuck roast in one layer (if it doesn't all fit, brown in 2 batches, but it is best if all fits on one level) on both sides. Remove chuck roast temporarily.
• Add onion soup mix, beef bouillon cubes, and 2 cups water. Using a flat spatula, deglaze bottom of pan. Return chuck roast to pan.
• Secure lid. Set for Pressure Cooking at High pressure, adjust time if necessary to 25 minutes. Begin "SAUTE MAUSHROOMS".
• When pressure cooking has completed, allow pressure to reduce naturally, until the pin drops on its own, about 20-30 minutes. Remove lid, directing steam away from you.
• Remove roast, keep warm. Press Saute button.
• SAUTE MUSHROOMS:.
• While roast is cooking, saute mushrooms. Once sauteed, toss in a splash of dry sherry, and let cook down until liquid evaporates. Magic is happening. Once cooked, remove from heat.
• MOCK CREAM OF WHATEVER SOUP:.
• In a 2-cup liquid measuring cup, whisk milk and cornstarch until well blended. Whisk in softened butter, beef bouillon granules, salt and pepper.
• In the pressure cooker pan (which should be on Saute on the "Normal" or "More" setting), whisk continuously as you slowly add the milk/cornstarch mixture to the pressure cooker pan.
• Whisk until the contents come to a boil (easier at "More" setting). Press Keep Warm/Off button. Press Saute button, then press Adjust button until it shows "Less". Simmer for one minute to thicken.
• FINISH:.
• Add sauteed mushrooms to sauce, and simmer for 1-2 minutes.
• Slice roast into large chunks or thick slices, and plate.
• Pour onion and mushroom gravy over slices, or serve in a gravy boat.

REVERSE-SEARED INSTANT POT PRIME RIB AND GRAVY

Steps:

• Make 4 evenly spaced small slits about 1/2 inch deep on the top of the roast with a small paring knife. Put a few rosemary leaves on top of each slit and push them in using a piece of garlic. Repeat on the other side of the roast. Make two slits on the ends of the roast and stuff with the remaining rosemary and garlic.
• Combine 5 teaspoons salt and 1 tablespoon pepper in a small bowl and stir to combine. Sprinkle all over the roast, firmly pressing the mixture onto the exterior and stuffing some into the slits.
• Place the trivet in the bottom of the insert of a 6-quart Instant Pot®. Pour in the beef broth and 1/4 cup of the wine. Place the roast on the trivet, fat-side up, then set it to pressure cook on low for 10 minutes with the keep warm feature turned on (see Cook's Note). Once the pressure cook cycle ends let the pot stand, closed, for 45 minutes. Open the lid and transfer the roast to a plate. Remove the trivet and pour the broth into a heatproof container. Rinse the insert and return it to the machine.
• Set the machine to sauté and add the butter. Once the butter is melted and foamy add the roast and sear until dark brown on all sides and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 120 degrees F for medium rare, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, immediately add the remaining 1/4 cup wine to the insert, scraping up the browned bits that are stuck to the bottom. Continue to cook until almost all the wine has evaporated then sprinkle in the flour. Stir until a uniform paste forms then whisk in the reserved broth. Bring to a boil and simmer until the flavor of the flour has cooked out, about 5 minutes. Adjust the seasoning, if needed, and whisk in a bit more beef broth if the gravy becomes too thick. Strain through a mesh strainer into a gravy boat and stir in the herbs right before serving. Serve alongside the roast.
