This was the first full meal we attempted in our new Instant Pot. We made rice previously. If you follow the link you’ll see nicer photos of the end product instead of mine soaked in gravy.
This was a good recipe that I’d use again. Next time around I might add a little extra salt. We followed the recipe with no alterations. I was happy to be able to sear the meat and saute the onions etc. in the pot. A true one pot meal. The new potatoes I bought at our Farmer’s Market were so good. We decided on an instant pot instead of a new Crock Pot. Our son and DIL went with the Fryer Instant Pot combination and they are happy with it.
Here’s the link to the recipe we used.
I’m happy that I attempted this recipe to bond with the pot. It’s always a little scary trying a new multi functioning small appliance. At least for me…

…I guess that we are still living in the past, we still use our crock pot.
Hello, I still use my crock pot too. This recipe sounds yummy.. Take care! Enjoy your day!
I love my instant pot. I have to get in the habit of using it more. I still have not used it for rice. So far everything I have made in it has come out quite yummy.
It looks like an amazing buy. We have a crock post but I have to brown the meat beforehand so it’s still a bit labour intensive. Yours looks like it could be a pressure cooker too. B x
Barbara, it is a pressure cooker along with being a slow cooker. It has multi-functions.
Is it a new pressure cooker? Used one of them quite often once upon a time.
Yes, it is a multi cooker, a pressure cooker, slow cooker, with a saute function, too.
All I’ve made with mine are hard boiled eggs. I should expand my horizons. The beef stew looks great to me!
Wow – that looks delicious! I’m glad to hear you are liking your Instant Pot – been thinking of getting one too. My daughter loves hers. I have a very good crock pot and will make do with that for now.
I think I was the last person on earth to buy a crock pot! I am glad you like this Instant Pot and thx for sharing the recipe.
We have thought about getting an instapot but decided not too—well I didn’t decide but the other half did. I will show him your blog—it might work . Haha

I don’t have an Instant pot, but use a crockpot when it’s hot and humid. Your roast looks delicious!
