Best 3 Pot Roast Recipe Pressure Cooker Recipes

Pot roast is a classic comfort food that can be made in a variety of ways. One of the easiest and most convenient methods is to cook it in a pressure cooker. This allows you to create a delicious and tender roast in a fraction of the time it would take to cook it in a traditional oven. Pressure cookers use high pressure to quickly cook food, which results in tender, flavorful results. With a pressure cooker, you can make pot roast in as little as an hour, compared to the several hours it would take in a traditional oven. Additionally, pressure cookers require less liquid, which means less chance of the roast drying out.

PRESSURE COOKER POT ROAST RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Pressure Cooker Pot Roast Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by PineyCook

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1 boneless, 4 pound chuck roast
3 cups well seasoned beef broth
1 cup red wine
3 medium carrots, cut in 1 inch pieces
1 large onion, quartered
2 rib celery, cut in 1 inch pieces
2 medium potatoes, cut inch large pieces
8 ounces whole, white button mushrooms
3 whole garlic cloves
1 bay leaf
Salt and pepper
4 1/2 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons all purpose flour

Steps:

Tie the roast securely with kitchen twine to help hold it's shape and to make it easy to remove from the pressure cooker when done. Season on both sides with salt and pepper. Brown the roast well on both sides in a non-stick skillet. Place on a rack in a pressure cooker. Add the broth and wine. Following your pressure cooker instructions, cook under pressure for 60 minutes. Let the pressure fall according to your cooker instructions before opening the lid and remove the roast. Cover it with foil to keep it warm and set aside. Strain the liquid and skim excess fat. Pour into a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and add all of the vegetables, garlic cloves and bay leaf. Lower the heat and simmer until tender (about 15 minutes). In a small skillet melt the butter and add the flour to form a roux. Cook for a minute over medium heat and add to the simmering cooking liquid and vegetables. Bring back to a boil and gently stir until thickened. Add the meat back to the gravy and heat through.

Tips:

Sear the meat: Searing the meat before cooking it in the pressure cooker helps to develop flavor and color.
Use a good quality cut of meat: A good quality cut of meat will be more tender and flavorful than a lower quality cut.
Don't overcrowd the pot: If you overcrowd the pot, the meat will not cook evenly.
Add enough liquid: The amount of liquid you add will depend on the type of meat you are cooking and the desired doneness.
Use a pressure cooker that is the right size for your needs: A pressure cooker that is too small will not be able to accommodate all of the ingredients, and a pressure cooker that is too large will not be able to build up enough pressure.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your pressure cooker: Each pressure cooker is different, so it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions for your specific model.

Conclusion:

Pressure cooker pot roast is a delicious and easy way to make a hearty and flavorful meal. By following these tips, you can ensure that your pot roast turns out perfect every time.
