Instant Pot Red Wine Beef Roast
Description
The recipe uses either eye of round or top sirloin beef roast, seasoned with kosher salt and black pepper, seared in olive oil using the Instant Pot’s sauté mode to develop flavor. The addition of red wine and beef broth creates a rich braising liquid along with aromatic ingredients such as garlic, onion, bay leaves, rosemary, and thyme. The roast is then pressure cooked according to thickness to achieve a tender internal temperature around 120°F, with a natural pressure release allowing the meat fibers to relax. This method results in a beef roast that is juicy and easy to slice.
Potatoes, carrots, and onions are cooked in the liquid, also gaining flavor and becoming tender yet holding shape. After cooking, the roast is sliced and served with the vegetables, which makes for a straightforward, hearty main course suitable for family meals. A simple cornstarch slurry gravy can be prepared from the cooking juices to accompany the roast if desired.
