This easy Italian Beef Recipe for the Instant Pot is delicious!
The very first thing I made in the Instant Pot was mashed potatoes. It took me 8 minutes! They were super creamy and I loved that it took no time at all.
One of my favorite things to cook in it as well is roast beef. I can create a full roast dinner that super tender in under an hour and who wouldn’t love that?
Italian Beef
Once I mastered the classic roast I tried creating new dishes and this Italian Beef Recipe is most certainly a new favorite. It’s great all year around, but even perfect in the summer because you aren’t heating up your kitchen. No one needs their house temperature to rise when it’s already hot outside.
You certainly could just eat this on it’s own with a great pasta or potato salad on the side. It’s even better when it’s turned into a sandwich! Toast some lightly buttered hoagie buns, fill them with juicy shredded beef and some extra pepperocini peppers, then finish it off with some sliced provolone or pepper jack cheese. It’s practically perfect!

I like beef, but I can’t cook it. It always comes too soft. Your roasted beef looks incredible. I will definitely try this recipe.
