How to cook beef chuck roast

There's nothing like pressure cooking beef. It comes out fall apart tender.

• Here are the first steps……and they're pretty darn easy I tell you.

• Once you have your piece of roast beef you're going to brown both sides using the saute function with a bit of olive oil in your pot.
• Then you'll add your spices and wine…yes you heard me right….red wine!
• Close your lid and steam valve and let it cook all by itself….go find something fun to do for 50 minutes. 😉
• You'll allow it to naturally release steam for 25 after that
• Add your potatoes and carrots (or other veggies) after that
• Let them soften for a little while
• Take everything out and enjoy!

You can make some pressure cooker gravy using the juices left in your pot if you want too….super easy to do and a great add.

Roast beef in a pressure cooker

• It cooks way faster…..that's the point right?
• Roast beef in an Instant Pot or Ninja Foodi comes out extremely tender
• You're able to cook everything all in the same pot which cuts down on dishes (yeah) and the vegetables/potatoes get to soak up all that goodness while they're cooking.
• You can just throw it all in and walk away instead of tending to it in the oven making sure it's basted etc…along the way.
• Because I'm just obsessed with my pretty Instant Pot and new Ninja Foodi pressure cooker and air fryer machines.

All large cuts of meat should be cooked under high pressure I say. It is the best way to get them all fork tender in about an hour. This and our Instant Pot rump roast are high on the list of favorites.
