- 1 tbsp Kosher Salt
- 1 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Fresh Thyme - chopped finely
- 1 tsp Fresh Rosemary - chopped finely
- 1 tsp Fresh Sage - chopped finely
- 2 tsps Onion Powder
- 2 tsps Garlic Powder
- 2 tbsps Worcestershire Sauce
- 1/2 cup Cooking Red Wine
- 2 cups Beef Broth
- 2 tbsps Corn Starch
- 4 tbsps Olive Oil
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine: 1 tbsp Salt. 1 tsp Black Pepper, 1 tsp Fresh Thyme, 1 tsp Fresh Rosemary, 1 tsp Fresh Sage, 2 tsps Onion Powder, 2 tsps Garlic Powder.
- Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels. Rub the spice mix all over the roast, including the sides.
- With the Instant Pot on the sauté setting, heat 3 tbsps of Olive Oil. Once hot, place the seasoned chuck roast and brown on all sides (about 2 minutes each side).
- Carefully remove the chuck roast and set aside momentarily. Add the final 1 tbsp of Olive Oil into the pot and add the quartered Yellow Onion.
- Sauté the onion for just 1-2 minutes to slightly soften it. Turn off the sauté setting.
- Add the chuck roast back in. Add the 1 1/2 pounds quartered potatoes, 2 cups baby carrots, 2 tbsps Worcestershire Sauce, 2 cups Beef Broth, and 1/2 cup Red Wine.
- Place the lid on with the vent sealed. Cook on the beef setting or manual high pressure setting for 50 minutes.
- Allow the Instant Pot to naturally release the pressure for 5 minutes before releasing the rest of the pressure. Remove the roast, potatoes, carrots, and onions and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Stir together the 2 tbsps of Corn Starch with 2 tbsps of Water in small bowl. Placing the pot back on the sauté setting, add the corn starch slurry. Allow the gravy to come to a boil and thicken - about 2-3 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve with spoonful's of gravy over the top of the meat, potatoes and carrots. Also, highly recommend a little butter on the potatoes and enjoy!
