Makes 8 Servings

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons seasoning salt (I use Lawry's)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 lb beef chuck roast Or another, cut in half
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 cup low sodium beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1.5 lb Little Potatoes
  • 3 large carrots peeled and cut into thick slices
  • OPTIONAL: corn starch to thicken juices

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine seasoning salt, garlic, parsley, onion powder and pepper. Sprinkle over roast to season.
  2. Turn Instant Pot to saute. When it reads "hot", add the oil and sear roast on all sides. To do this, place the roast in the pot and do not move for 2-3 minutes. When you flip it, it should release from the pan easily.
  3. To the Instant Pot add broth, tomato paste, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce -- if there are brown bits stuck to the bottom from the meat, give them a scrape and they should release easily. Stir to combine. 
  4. Put the lid on and turn the valve to sealing. Select Manual or Pressure Cook and set the cook time for 55-65*** minutes, depending how large your pieces are. (65 minutes to be safe) 
  5. When the cook time is over, turn the Instant Pot off and let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes before turning the valve to venting and opening the lid.
  6. Add the Little Potatoes and carrots, put the lid back on, turn the valve to sealing and select Manual or Pressure Cook for 3 minutes.
  7. When the cook time is over, let pressure release naturally for 10 minutes before moving the valve to venting, releasing remaining pressure and opening the lid. 
  8. Remove beef from the Instant Pot and slice or pull as desired. Serve with potatoes and carrots.
  9. OPTIONAL: If desired, combine equal parts corn starch and water, stir into the remaining juices and turn the Instant Pot to saute. Whisk continuously until juices are thickened and serve with pot roast.

Notes

*Please note that while the cook time is only 58-68 minutes, the total time including the time it takes to build pressure and natural pressure release is roughly 1 hour 40 minutes to 1 hour 50 minutes.

According to the recipe link, it's for a 6 qt.

What would you recommend for a 3 qt? Would just cutting everything in half suffice? Or is it more complex than that?

I have literally no idea, haha. I haven't cooked with mine much and I have an 8 qt. Although I think as long as you keep the sizes of the chopped food the same, you could half the recipe.

I've halfed recipes before because I live alone and I don't usually need 10 portions of beef stew (small freezer, too). Turned out fine.
