Instructions
  1. Take chuck roast and cut in half so it can fit in the instant pot and pat dry.
  2. Turn instant pot to saute on high. In the meantime, generously season roast on all sides with S&P
  3. Once hot, add a splash of veggie oil and sear each side of the roast. Take your time and do this step right.
  4. Sear both pieces and set aside. Cube them into 1-2 pieces.
  5. In bowl mix remainder of spices and stuffs.
  6. When beef is done searing, deglaze pan with stock scraping up the fond.
  7. Hit cancel and throw the beef back in.
  8. Dump in the spice mixture and stir it a tiny bit. You want some of that goodness to remain on the beef.
  9. Put the lid on and pressure cook on high for 50 mins
  10. Natural release for 20-25 mins
  11. Remove beef and press saute to reduce stock by half. Taste your sauce and adjust as needed. I usually add a little more adobe sauce from the can where the chipotle came from.
  12. Shred beef and then throw it back into reduced stock. Toss to combine.
  13. HIGHLY recommend you eat this with my jalapeno slaw and use flour street taco tortillas. Top with whatever you want.
