Pressure Cooker Pot Roast

Randall Hauk says:

Anything that has my two young ones walking in the front door and immediately asking "what smells so yummy, Daddy?" is already well on its way to a high review. The fact that both of them ate more beef and potatoes than I've seen them eat in a sitting sealed the deal. Classic flavors worked perfectly here. Tip 1: Start it earlier than you think. Pressure cooker will take a little bit to release naturally and rebuild for veggies. Tip 2: Put the herbs in a cheesecloth bag. Otherwise, you're picking mushy herbs out of everything later. WHOOPS!

Caro Hodgin says:

Woah, so easy and delicious. I can't believe I made this! Will definitely make again, and again, and again.

Tarragon Boi says:

I've been making pot roast in my Dutch oven for years, but I just tried this in my pressure cooker and it turned out great. I didn't think I'd be able to get a good sear on it, but I was! I like my pot roast with more gravy, so I took all the liquid and veggies and pulsed it in a blender. SO GOOD

Tal Levitas says:

Who knew that you could make Pot Roast in an hour and a half. My old recipe took 4 and a half hours of slow cooking. Tastes great, and it's perfectly shreddable. I'm going to take this recipe and turn it into a barbacoa beef recipe with a few spice changes!

Steve Failows says:

hard to go wrong with pot roast, such a comfort food - like one of the other reviewers, I was worried about getting a good sear, but it turned out delicious. Any root veggies are the perfect compliment, I threw parsnips in there and it was a delight.

Katie Hason says:

My favorite part about this recipe is that you can cook the meat, potatoes, and carrots all at one time. This is the best, easiest pot roast recipe I've ever tried! Amazing flavor, it tastes like my parents and grandparents cooking. It also makes generous portions to feed all your guests.

Sam Dalton says:

I love this pot roast recipe. The meat turned out so juicy and tender, it melts in your mouth. The pressure cooker also drastically cut the cooking time. We are going to make this again on Thanksgiving. Definitely a 5-star dish.

Greg Jones says:

This pressure cooker pot roast is incredible. Perfect, hearty meal for cold weather. The onion, garlic, and fresh herbs give it so much flavor. The meat is under and mouthwatering. This is a must have for your kitchen repertoire.

Kecia Jerome says:

My husband said this was the best pot roast I have made for him. It was tender, juicy and perfectly cooked. Something I used to spend the entire day roasting done in an hour and a half and better that I could have done in the oven. I used the drippings to make a pan gravy which was rich and delicious. I will be making it again for him soon!

Hector Jonass says:

Reallly great recipe! The vegetables came out perfect! Followed the recipe as written. Very easy and excellent results. The meat was very, very tender. Served with egg noodles for taking on the gravy made from the drippings. Also, dont' forget a crusty loaf of bread. What a dinner!

Amber Callahan says:

Today was my first use of my Multi Cooker. The pot roast was a big hit with everyone at it only took about an hour. What more can you ask for.

Kelly Hahlbeck says:

The roast was perfect and very flavorful and done in no time. But the video says to cook for 22 mins, the directions say 55 mins, and the recipe book that came with it says 45 mins. Little confusing but still very tasty!

Julija Zi. says:

This was my first time making pot roast and it turned out really delicious - the meat was SO tender! I added in a bit of flour to the sauce to thicken it up and I will also add some mushrooms the next time I make this recipe but overall, this recipe was AWESOME!

Dianne Theriot says:

delish...I added 1 tbs of worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, 1 small can of chopped chilies and replaced the carrots with Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes.. also added 1 tbs of arrowroot to thicken after cooked. Next time want to add mushrooms!

Barbara Davis says:

This pot roast is so incredibly delicious, it’s in heavy rotation at my house. If I don’t have red wine, I find that using a good balsamic vinegar in place of the wine works well and is still amazingly tasty. Also, I live at 7100 feet elevation, so if you’re in the mountains too, add 20 to 30% more time to the cook time— I pressure cook for 80 minutes, not 55; and depending on how many carrots and potatoes I add in the second phase, I cook again for 7 to 9 minutes, not 4, and it turns out perfectly. Thanks, Multi Pot!!

Ruth Juneau says:

When I read the recipe.... It was hard to believe that the meat could be tender in only 55 min ...... Well, I was definitely proven wrong! Meat was moist, tender & very favorable! I added the potatoes (small Yukon cut in half) and fresh carrots cut in chunks in the last 4 or 5 min as indicated in recipe, because we like our veggies a little crisp & not super soft! My hubby loved this recipe & I loved it because I didn’t have to constantly watch it on my stovetop for 4 hours! Will be making this again soon! Oh by the way .... this was my first meal in my Multipot & it surely exceeded my expectations!

Sharon Harbaugh says:

Husband said best pot roast he’s ever had!!! Made in our Motorcoach and didn’t have the fresh herbs...used garlic powder sautéed with a little onion to give extra flavor after browning meat. After reading other reviews I only cooked roast 40 minutes and raised the time to 10 minutes after adding veggies. I added quartered onions and thick sliced baby Bella mushrooms in with potatoes and carrots. After removing meat and veggies I thickened gravy with cornstarch dissolved in water, using sautée setting to bring to a boil. Delicious!! Definitely worthy of a company meal!

Marilyn Boyce says:

This was my first attempt at using the MealthyPot pressure cooker and I am thrilled. Followed the recipe to a T because I was nervous but there was no need to be. Everything came out so tender and flavorful. This is my new go-to pot roast recipe for sure. My husband couldn’t get enough of it

Ryann Burkart says:

So yummy! I added a little Dijon mustard when deglazing the bottom of the pot. Because we're trying more low carb stuff, we added brussel sprouts instead of the carrots and cooked it for 7 minutes and it was WONDERFUL! Super easy and really satisfying!

Julia Kang says:

Super delicious. Next time, I'll let it release naturally so the flavor really soaks it up. But overall, it was easy to make and really yummy. The meat was so tender it cut like butter. 5 stars!

Jason Owens says:

Very good! I now make a better roast than my wife. I was unable to find Yukon golds but used Klondike goldusts and they were tasty. I would next time, change the cooking time to 40-45 mins. Some parts were a little dry.

Jess Goodwin says:

I was hopeful when making this based on the reviews. It was average as I thought the taste to be a bit bland.

Ashley Pekalski says:

Really great but use a mesh bag for herbs they turn to mush after cooking but best pot roast ever!

Kari G says:

I was very skeptical about this one, but made it because the other reviews were so good. I made sure to use plenty of salt and pepper when seasoning the roast. It turned out to be so good. I used a three pound roast for three people and there wasn't but one serving of meat leftover. I will definitely make this one again!

Janice Stephens says:

Followed the recipe exactly. Came out AMAZING!

Tanya Larizza says:

Was easy and very tasty, 55 minutes was a bit to long for my liking so next time it try a little less time for the roast

Jason Plowy says:

Very good. I did this for my first meal! I had new potato’s needing to be used so I substituted them. It worked out welll so now I’m on to the next recipe.

Susan Emery says:

I don’t have a Pressure Cooker Pot, so I can’t really give a review. My husband is a meat and potatoes man. So I know he would enjoy a meal like this one! I used to make meals like this in my crockpot and they were delicious!!

Carol Wagner says:

Big hit with the family! Made as directed.

Abby Lozinger says:

FABULOUS. We put the thyme and rosemary in a cheesecloth satchel as others recommended - worked well. Cooked 2.75 lb chuck roast for 42 min, then added 30 mini peeled baby carrots and 2 lb mini halved red/gold potatoes and pressure cooked for 5 min. Perfect. Removed meat and veggies, turned pot on saute and added cornstarch mixed with water to the juice to make a gravy. We made a traditional crock pot pot roast a few weeks ago and this was much better and obviously faster. The Mealthy pot also allowed for the addition of WAY more vegetables than our 7 qt slow cooker. We used low sodium beef broth and even though we seasoned the beef with salt/pepper prior to browning, we did need to add a little salt. We'll be making this again, probably tomorrow. :-)

Roselyn Ham says:

I was a little bit anxious to try this cooker for the first time. I even called the help line to ask about frozen meat and was told to try to thaw the meat as much as possible before cooking. My roast was not completely thawed but I started to cook it after searing. When the cooker finished and I took the roast out, what a surprise. I've been cooking beef roast for 50 plus years and have never had one come out so tender and juicy. I'm 72 years old and have been married 50 years. I'm so happy to be using this product!

Kim Roberts says:

The flavor was great! I added salt, pepper and cornstarch to liquid and made a gravy. What I didn’t like was that the roast was over cooked. I bought a 3lb chuck roast and cooked just the way the instruction said and it came out over cooked and the meat was tough:( Any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated,😊

Chrissy Harris says:

First recipe I’ve tried through the Mealthy app. Based on the reviews, I was expecting it to be far better than the results I got... the meat was actually kind of dry and taste overall was very bland. I had to add more and more salt to get some type of flavor going... very disappointed.

Sue Steinhart says:

Love the recipe flavor. Gravy and veggies came out great! The meat was a little on the tough side though. I followed the recipe exactly other than adding corn starch at the end to make a gravy. Meat weighed just under 3 lbs. Did it cook too long or too little? Would like to know for next time because it was good except for that.

Marina Konko says:

I loved this recipe, this is my second dish in this mealthy pot. I followed the recipe but the time it took me to cook is twice longer then the recipe indicated. This is the only detail that was not accurate. Also I added salt and garlic powder to potato and carrots before putting it inside the pot with meat. It is very delicious!
