Ingredients
- 3-4 Pound Chuck Roast
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 Teaspoon Seasoning Salt
- 1 Teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 Teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 Medium Onion sliced thin
- 1 Cup Beef Broth
- 2 Cups BBQ Sauce
Instructions
-
Season both sides of the chuck roast with seasonings.
-
Press the sauté button on Instant Pot when the screen reads hot add the olive oil into inner pot. When oil is warm place the chuck roast in and cook for 2 minutes on each side. Remove meat from inner pot and place on a plate.
-
Sauté the onions for a minute with remaining olive oil until translucent. Add a bit more olive oil if needed.
-
Deglaze the inner pot with a bit of the beef broth and scrape with a spatula. Make sure to get all bits off of the bottom of the inner pot.
-
Turn the sauté button off and place the meat back into the inner pot. Add in the rest of the beef broth.
-
Place lid on Instant Pot and set for 60 minutes on high pressure. Smaller roasts may need less time.
-
Once cooking time is done let Instant Pot do a natural release. This may take 15-20 minutes.
-
Remove the roast from the inner pot and place it into a medium bowl then shred the meat. If the meat isn't shreddable place it back into Instant Pot and cook for 10 to 15 minutes more.
-
Once the chuck roast is shredded add in your favorite bbq sauce and serve on a sandwhich bun.
