Ingredients

• 3 pounds beef chuck roast
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 cups beef broth
• 0.5 cups red wine (optional)
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 4 large carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
• 4 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
• 3 stalks celery stalks, cut into chunks
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons cold water

Directions

Step 1

Season the beef chuck roast on all sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 2

Set the pressure cooker to the sauté function and heat the olive oil. Sear the roast for 4-5 minutes per side until browned. Remove the roast and set aside.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pressure cooker. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Deglaze the pot with the beef broth and red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.

Step 5

Stir in the tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce.

Step 6

Return the roast to the pot and secure the lid. Cook on high pressure for 45 minutes.

Step 7

Perform a quick release of the pressure, then add the carrots, potatoes, and celery to the pot.

Step 8

Secure the lid again and cook on high pressure for an additional 10 minutes.

Step 9

Perform a quick release and carefully remove the roast and vegetables to a serving platter.

Step 10

Set the pressure cooker to the sauté function and bring the liquid in the pot to a simmer.

Step 11

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and cold water to create a slurry. Stir it into the simmering liquid to thicken into a gravy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 12

Slice the roast and serve with the vegetables and gravy on the side.
