Description

This Instant Pot Roast is a heartwarming dish that combines tender beef with carrots and potatoes, all enveloped in a rich gravy. It’s easy to make, perfect for busy weeknights, and promises a delicious meal every time.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 lbs. chuck roast
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp smoky or sweet paprika
  • 2 tbsp canola oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 large sweet yellow onion
  • 3 large carrots
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 cup low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 1 lb. baby Dutch yellow (or baby red potatoes)


Instructions

  • Set Instant Pot to 'Sauté' and season the chuck roast with salt, pepper, and paprika.
  • Sear the roast for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  • Sauté onion and carrots in the pot for 3-4 minutes, then add garlic for another 30 seconds.
  • Deglaze the pot with beef broth, scraping any browned bits.
  • Place the trivet over the broth, set roast on top, add wine and herbs, and seal the lid.
  • Pressure cook on HIGH for 35-40 minutes with vegetables or 55 minutes without them.
  • After cooking, release steam and add potatoes if needed, cooking again for 15-20 minutes.
  • Transfer roast and vegetables to a platter, cover with foil, and prepare gravy.
  • Blend pan juices and veggies until smooth, simmer to thicken, and season to taste.
  • Slice the roast and serve with veggies and gravy.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, use all oil instead of butter.
Feel free to substitute with your favorite root vegetables or adjust herbs as desired.
