Pressure Cooker Pot Roast
What You Need:
3 lb chuck roast
1 tbsp avocado oil
1 small yellow onion, roughly chopped
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups fingerling potatoes, halved
6-7 carrots, roughly chopped
2 cups bone broth
Handful of fresh thyme sprigs and any other roasting herbs (rosemary, sage, etc.)
Salt & pepper
What To Do:
Generously sprinkle salt on all sides of chuck roast
Turn instant pot to sauté mode and heat avocado oil
Add garlic and onions to IP, stirring frequently, until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes)
Remove garlic and onions from IP and set aside
Add chuck roast to IP and quickly sear on all sides (no more than 30 seconds per side)
Remove chuck roast from IP and add about half of the potatoes (enough to cover the entire bottom surface area)
Return chuck roast to IP, on top of the layer of potatoes. Then, add remaining potatoes plus the carrots, garlic, onions, herbs, and bone broth
Add a few pinches of salt, then close the lid and set IP to pressure cook for 2 hours
Manually release steam when done, serve & enjoy!
