Pot Roast (Pressure Cooker)

This pot roast has been honed over the years to suit my taste. I prefer a pot roast with slices of beef, instead of shredded like some recipes, but if you like shredded, you can shred the beef instead. I use a pressure cooker to speed the process up, but if you don't have one, you can roast this traditionally in the oven with a dutch oven (adjustments are in the recipe). I find that 3 cups of total liquid is the right amount for using a pressure cooker but if you're using a dutch oven, add extra water as needed while it cooks.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prep the ingredients. Combine the water, wine, boullion, Worcestershire, and fish sauce. In a bowl layer the mushrooms, carrots and potatoes. This is so when the vegetables go in, the potatoes will be in the liquid and the mushrooms on top.
- 2
In the pressure cooker, add 1 Tbsp oil and heat on high. Add the onions and cook until browning, or they release their liquid. (If you're using a dutch oven, brown the meat first [steps 5-7] in the dutch oven on the stovetop, remove and then follow these directions).
- 3
Add the garlic, tomato paste, and spices.
- 4
When the paste begins to stick to the bottom, add the liquid.
- 5
Season the beef chuck with salt.
- 6
Sear the chuck in a skillet on high heat with a little oil.
- 7
Degaze the pan with the vermouth and add it to the pressure cooker.
- 8
Add the chuck to the pressure cooker.
- 9
Cook on high pressure for 35 min followed by immediate pressure release. If using a dutch oven, cook covered in a 300°F oven for 2-3 hours adding more water as necessary.
- 10
Add the veggies so the potatoes are on the bottom and mostly submerged, then the carrots, followed by the mushrooms. Cook on high pressure 15 minutes followed by natural pressure relief. If using the dutch oven, cook with the cover ajar 40-50 min more or until the potatoes are tender.
- 11
Combine the starch with 1/4 cup of water.
- 12
Remove the pot roast from the pot and set aside.
- 13
Bring the liquid in the pot to a simmer and add the starch slurry, stirring to thicken.
- 14
Slice the pot roast, return it to the thickened sauce to reheat.
- 15
Sprinkle the parsley on and serve in large bowls. I like to add simple steamed green peas as a side.

Pot Roast - Instant Pot Pot Roast - Instant Pot
How to make Instant Pot pot roast that is so tender, it melts in your mouth. This easy recipe makes ultra-flavorful beef guaranteed to satisfy the entire family. Use an Instant Pot or another brand of electric pressure cooker. The best cuts of beef for pot roast are tougher cuts of meat like chuck, brisket, and round. Baby potatoes are optional. They get very soft and can be served whole or mashed and served alongside the pot roast.FAQ: If you do not have the same size cut of meat as called for in the recipe, assume 20 minutes of cook time for every pound of meat. So a 4-pound roast will need 80 minutes of cook time and a 5-pound roast will need 100 minutes of cook time.Source: https://www.inspiredtaste.net/41089/pressure-cooker-pot-roast/ Tyler Campbell -

Perfect Pot Roast & Vegetables Perfect Pot Roast & Vegetables
I tried many times over the years to make pot roast in the crock pot. Everyone always raves about crock pot roast being so tender and juicy, but I never once got a tender, juicy roast out of my crock pot. Seriously, how do people rave over crock pot roast? It just never gets tender for me.However, I learned how to make delicious pot roast the "traditional" way (aka oven) and have perfected the methods of my own recipe over the last couple years.This recipe comes out fork tender every single time, and it's always bursting with flavor. This is definitely best suited for a weekend meal if you're a busy cook. It's a lengthy process, but worth the effort! StephieCanCook -
