Are you tired of cooking a beef roast the traditional way? Look no further! Today, we’re going to show you how to make a mouth-watering beef roast using an Instant Pot. This recipe is not only easy to make but also packed with flavor.

You’ll be using a few simple ingredients, and the best part is that you can have it ready in just over an hour.

Ingredients Needed

Before we dive into the recipe, let’s take a look at the ingredients you’ll need:

  • Onion
  • Garlic
  • Cilantro (or Italian parsley if you prefer)
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • Beef roast
  • Broth

Preparation

To start, peel and roughly chop the onion and garlic. You can also use a food processor to make it even easier. The onion and garlic will cook with the roast, breaking down perfectly to add flavor to your dish.

Next, chop the cilantro. While it’s not a traditional ingredient in beef roast, it adds a unique and delicious flavor. If you’re not a fan of cilantro, feel free to swap it out with Italian parsley.

Searing the Meat

Now it’s time to heat up your Instant Pot. Set it to sauté on high and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, place the beef roast in the pot and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sear the meat until you get a nice crust on it.

Adding Aromatics and Broth

Add the chopped onion to the pot and stir it around. Add a splash of broth to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom to avoid any burning. Now, add the garlic, cilantro, salt, and pepper, stirring everything together. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the pot to incorporate all the ingredients.

Pressure Cooking

Add the meat back into the pot, along with the juices and remaining broth. Close the lid, making sure the silicone ring is in place. Set the Instant Pot to high pressure for 1 hour and 15 minutes. After the cooking time is up, allow for a 30-minute natural pressure release.

Shredding and Serving

Once the pressure has been released, remove the roast from the pot. You can shred it using two forks, or slice it up if you prefer. The beef is incredibly tender and flavorful, making it perfect for sandwiches, nachos, tacos, and more. You can also save the broth to make a delicious gravy or use it as a topping for the roast.

And that’s it! Your Instant Pot beef roast is ready to be devoured. This recipe is a game-changer for those who want to cook a delicious beef roast without spending hours in the kitchen.
