  • 2.5 lbs boneless beef chuck roast

  • 2 cups baby carrots
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Place the Instant Pot on the saute setting on high heat
  • Season the beef with salt and pepper and add oil to the Instant Pot

  • Pour in the broth and Worcestershire sauce and scrape any of the browned bits from the bottom of the pot
  • Turn off the saute setting and select the manual setting to adjust the pressure to high and set the time for 30 minutes. Make sure the valve is in the sealed position

  • Remove the beef from the Instant Pot. Set the instant pot to the soup setting and add the baby carrots.
  • Mix together the water and corn starch until it makes a slurry. Once the broth is boiling, stir in the corn starch mixture until the sauce thickens
  • Slice the roast into 1/2 inch slices. Serve with gravy and add salt and pepper to taste, garnish with fresh thyme if desired
