Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 3-4 pound chuck roast
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 oz packet dry au jus mix
  • 12 slices of provolone cheese

Instructions

PREP INSTANT POT:

  • Remove the lid and set the Instant Pot to the “Saute” setting.

PREP AND SEAR ROAST:

  • Season the roast with salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder. Rub the seasonings into the roast.

  • Place shredded roast on a hoagie bun (toasted or not) with cheese.
  • Strain off some of the au jus from the instant pot for dipping the sandwiches.
