Family and friends will destroy this classic (and classy) meat and potatoes dish. It’s special enough for a holiday feast but too flippin’ good to only make once or twice a year.
INGREDIENTS
- 3 lbs beef chuck roast
- kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 3 garlic cloves minced

- 3 cups low-sodium beef broth

INSTRUCTIONS
-
Generously season chuck roast with salt and pepper. Set Instant Pot to Sauté for 15 minutes, and heat oil.

When oil is shimmering, add beef and sear on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove beef and add onion.
-
Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, rosemary, thyme, and tomato paste, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in flour, then whisk in wine until combined. Bring to a boil and cook until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
