Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil optional for slow cooker
  • 3-4 pound chuck roast lean and trimmed
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 cups beef broth organic and low sodium
  • 1 packet dry au jus mix
  • Provolone cheese optional
  • Buns for serving optional

Instructions

  • Turn Instant Pot on and set to Saute
  • After it warms up, add oil
  • Rub roast with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder
  • Sear the roast on all sides in the Instant Pot, remove and set aside
  • Add in broth to deglaze the bottom of the pot (so you don't get a burn notice later)
  • Place the roast back into the pot and sprinkle the au jus mix over top
  • Close the lid, turn the valve to the sealing position, and cook on high pressure for 1 hour and 40 minutes
  • After cooking allow the Instant Pot to naturally release for 20-25minutes, then perform a quick release to release the remaining pressure
  • Remove lid and transfer meat to plate to shred
  • Serve with bun and cheese or without either!
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator or freeze for later!

Slow Cooker Instructions

  • You can sear the roast on the stove or skip this step
  • Rub roast with seasonings and place it in the slow cooker
  • Top with au jus mix and add in beef broth
  • Cook on low for 7-8 hours or high for 4-6 hours
  • Serve and enjoy!
