Instant Pot Italian Beef Sandwiches
Description
This recipe uses a 3-pound roast beef cooked in an Instant Pot along with chopped red bell pepper, zesty Italian dressing mix, butter, pepperoncini peppers with juice, and beef broth. The high-pressure cooking for 70 minutes with a natural release allows the meat to become tender enough to shred easily and soak in the flavorful cooking juices.
The shredded beef is placed on hoagie rolls that are briefly broiled for a toasted, crisp base. Slices of provolone cheese are layered over the meat and the sandwich is broiled a final time to melt the cheese. The combination of the buttery, peppers, and Italian seasonings creates a flavorful and moist filling inside the crunchy, toasted buns.
These sandwiches serve as a hearty lunch or dinner option, easy to assemble once the beef is cooked. Pepperoncini peppers, both in the cooking liquid and reserved as toppings, add a tangy brightness to balance the richness of the beef and cheese. The broiling step crisps the bread and melts the cheese for texture contrast.
