Instant Pot Roast Beef is the perfect family meal. It’s delicious, savory, and comes together quickly!

We love Instant Pot Beef recipes! Some of our favorites include Instant Pot Beef Stew and Instant Pot Ground Beef and Rice.

INSTANT POT ROAST BEEF

Roast beef is one of those family favorites that brings you back to Sunday dinners at Grandma’s or holiday family feasts. It’s so satisfying and delicious! It’s also very versatile. Roast beef makes a wonderful family dinner, but it’s also amazing on sandwiches, in appetizers, and more!

However, it usually also takes hours and hours of slow roasting to get that tender, juicy beef and gravy. Who has that kind of time? That’s where the Instant Pot comes in!

CAN YOU ACTUALLY MAKE A GREAT ROAST BEEF IN AN INSTANT POT?

Since roast beef usually takes the better part of a day to get to the point where it is falling-apart-tender, this is a valid question. The answer is yes!

By pressure cooking the roast beef, you can get that “simmered all day” taste and texture in a fraction of the time. No more having to start cooking your dinner at breakfast time!

WHAT SHOULD I SERVE WITH INSTANT POT ROAST BEEF?

Instant Pot Roast Beef is one of those dishes that really kind of shines on its own. You can cook some root vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and onions along with it, but you can also serve it alongside Cheesy Garlic Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes or Instant Pot Baked Sweet Potatoes. Add in a quick salad and whip up a batch of Southern Cornbread Muffins, and you’re good to go!

WILL INSTANT POT ROAST BEEF FREEZE WELL?

Oh my goodness, this recipe freezes beautifully. Feel free to portion out the meat and freeze it for future meals! However, you may also wish to keep it in the fridge for delicious lunches throughout the week. Either way, I hope you enjoy my Instant Pot Roast Beef – it’s a family favorite at our house!

This is a photo that my son sent me when he went on a choir trip to Mexico when he was in junior college.  He is now studying social work at a university in Missouri.  We are certainly proud of him.  He had a great time on his trip!

  • Amorette DavisUser of the Free Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Menu

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

  • Dawn S.Buyer of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebook Series
    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
