Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients

  • 2-4 lb chuck roast
  • 2 T avocado oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 T Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 T balsamic vinegar
  • 12 oz beef broth
  • buns
  • butter optional
  • provolone cheese
  • prepared au jus gravy I used a packet since I haven't perfected a scratch recipe yet

Instructions

  • Season all sides of the roast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Push “sauté” on instant pot and add the oil.
  • Sear the meat for about 90 seconds per side. 
  • Add the Worcestershire, vinegar, and broth.
  • Close the lid, seal the steam valve and cook on the “meat/stew” setting for 100 minutes (for anything bigger than 4 pounds do 110 minutes, for a frozen roast do 120 minutes).
  • After it is done cooking, let it do a natural pressure release for at least 20 minutes before twisting the steam valve to “venting”.
  • Shred the meat. 
  • Butter some buns and broil for 45 seconds. 
  • Top the bottom bun with meat, then cheese, and broil for another 45 seconds. 
  • Serve with Au Jus gravy, and if you want to make it next-level, add some sautéed onions and mushrooms. So good!!
