1 lb of baby white potatoes (the best kind for this dish).

1 oz packet of any beef gravy flavor (I used Au Jus but any will do).

3 tbsp of cornstarch + 3 tbsp of water to form a slurry.

1 cup of a dry red wine (use one you would drink and not a red cooking wine – a Pinot Noir is great).

2 yellow onions, sliced longways into thick wedges.

Get a nice, marbled cut with visible, thick fat strands for the best experience Another excellent cut of meat to use are the boneless short ribs from Costco like the ones I use in my Short Rib Recipe or a cut of meat that is labeled “Pot Roast.” Whichever you pick, make sure the cut of meat is nice and MARBLED – meaning there are plenty of strands of fat visible within the meat. Costco has excellent cuts of chuck/pot roast. 3-5 lb chuck or rump (bottom) roast (NOTE: 3-5 lbs is perfect to me and will easily feed 4-5.After, I sautéed some onions and then deglazed with red wine, loosening up all the browned bits that accumulated from the beef and onions, which added SO much flavor to the base. One of the best features of the Instant Pot is that you can sear the meat right in the pot before cooking it, rather than getting another pot dirty doing it on the stovetop.Īfter seasoning the beef roast VERY generously with salt and pepper, I seared it on all sides in some olive oil right in the pressure cooker. The pot roast was SO flavorful, and so easy to cook up in the pressure cooker! And best of all, I cooked up the potatoes in the Instant Pot at the same time, and made gravy from the drippings in the pot after everything was done. You can watch this super dorky video of me (and baby Ella) opening up the box right after it got delivered to see what’s inside and how it was packed.

I made this Instant Pot Pot Roast with a bottom round roast from my very first ButcherBox. And, if I’m being honest, if I see a conventional steak next to a grass-fed one and it’s a lot cheaper, I’m usually tempted to go the cheap route.Ī ButcherBox subscription takes the thinking out of it. I don’t know about you, but I often feel overwhelmed with all the choices at the grocery store. Select the manual or pressure cook function and set for 15 minutes. ButcherBox makes it easy to purchase and eat high quality meats without even thinking about it. Pour the chicken broth into a pressure cooker.
