INSTANTPOT ROAST RECIPES

Steps:

• Liberally season all sides of the pork roast with salt and pepper. Select the Sauté button to heat up the Instant Pot inner pot.
• When the display reads “Hot,” add the butter to the pot. As soon as the butter melts, add the pork roast to the pot and sear it on all sides, approximately 4 minutes per side.
• Add the apple juice to the pot and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the onion. Press Cancel to turn off the Sauté function.
• Secure the lid, ensuring the valve is turned to the Sealing position. Press the Pressure Cook button and set the time to 20 minutes.
• When cooking is complete, let the pot sit for another 15 minutes, and then turn the valve to the Venting position to release any remaining pressure.
• Remove the lid and transfer the pork to a cutting board. Let the pork rest for 5 minutes, and then cut it into 3/4-inch slices. Top the pork roast with chutney and fresh pomegranate seeds, if using.
• Place all the ingredients in the Instant Pot inner pot and combine them with a good stir. Secure the lid, ensuring the valve is turned to the Sealing position. Press the Pressure Cook button and set the time to 10 minutes.
• When cooking is complete, turn the valve to the Venting position to release the pressure. Remove the lid, stir, and serve the chutney either hot or cold.

Steps:

• Cut the beef in half crosswise (for quicker cooking), then season with salt and pepper. On a 6 quart Instant Pot®, select the Saute setting. Heat the oil. Add the beef (in batches, if needed) and cook for 15 minutes or until well browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot. Add the wine and cook, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Press Cancel.
• Layer the onions, carrots, potatoes, thyme and beef in the Instant Pot®. Spoon the soup over the beef (the order is important, so don't stir until after the cooking is done).
• Lock the lid and close the pressure release valve. Pressure cook on High pressure, setting the timer to 45 minutes (timer will begin counting down once pressure is reached- it takes about 10 minutes). When done, press Cancel and use the quick release method to release the pressure.
• Remove the beef to a serving plate, cover and keep warm. Select the Saute setting and cook the vegetables and gravy for 10 minutes or until the gravy is slightly thickened. Remove and discard the thyme. Season to taste. Slice the beef and serve with the vegetables and gravy.
