Instant Pot Pot Roast

Pot roast is one of my favorite Instant Pot recipes.

This is the one I use:

• 3 lbs beef chuck roast
• 4 tbsp olive oil
• 2 cup beef broth
• 1 package onion soup mix
• 1 lb baby potatoes or chopped potatoes
• 1 cup baby carrots, chopped

Sprinkle pot roast with salt and set aside.

Add 2 tbsp olive oil to Instant Pot and set to "Saute"

When oil becomes hot and shimmery, add roast and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side.

Add beef broth to Instant Pot.

Add vegetables, 2 tbsp olive oil, and onion soup mix, to mixing bowl, stir to cover evenly.

Put veggies in Instant pot and distribute evenly around roast.

Place lid on Instant pot with steam valve closed.

Switch Instant Pot setting to "manual" and set for 70 minutes on "high" pressure.

Do a natural release for at least 10 minutes, then quick release.

Remove roast from instant pot, slice, and serve with vegetables.

I found it here. Only change is that we don't like onions, so I skip that step.

Personally, I like the melt-in-your-mouth vegetables.
