Directions

  1. 1

    Season the roast on all sides with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Set instant pot to sauté, coat the bottom of the pot with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the roast and sear on all sides. Remove the roast and set aside.

  3. 3

    Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil with the onion, celery and garlic. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes, until tender.

  4. 4

    Pour the red wine in the pot to deglaze the bottom, stir until all the bits from the bottom have come off, about 3 to 4 minutes. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the pot so there are no burned bits stuck to the bottom, which can give you the burn notice.

  5. 5

    Add the roast, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, potatoes and carrots to the pot. You may need to move the vegetables around a little to get them to fit with the roast.

  6. 6

    Place the lid on the pot and lock it in place. Make sure the vent is sealed. Switch the instant pot to pressure cook, high and set for 60 minutes.

  7. 7

    Let the instant pot naturally release the pressure for 10 to 15 minutes, after cooking. Then do a quick release for any remaining pressure. (Just turn the valve on top.)

  8. 8

    Whisk to combine the the cornstarch and water in a small bowl.

  9. 9

    Turn the instant pot to sauté, pour the cornstarch slurry into the pot and stir until blended. Stirring often, sauté for 2 to 4 minutes, until the gravy has thickened.
