Instant Pot Venison Roast
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 (2 pound) venison roast
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 (1.5 ounce) package beef stew seasoning mix (such as McCormick®)
  • 1 pound baby potatoes (such as Little Potato Company®), halved
  • 1 (8 ounce) package baby carrots
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Turn on your pressure cooker and switch it to its sauté mode. Heat some olive oil in the pot for 1 minute, then carefully place your venison roast into the hot oil and sear it from both sides for 2 minutes each. Switch off the sauté mode.
2
Next, mix some water and stew seasoning in a small bowl and whisk it until the seasoning is fully incorporated. Pour this mixture over the venison roast, making sure it's evenly coated.
3
Close and secure the lid of your pressure cooker. Follow the manufacturer's guidelines to set it to high pressure, and then set a timer for 120 minutes. Allow about 10 minutes for the pressure to build up.
4
Once you've released the pressure using the quick-release method, about 5 minutes should have passed. Now, add some potatoes and carrots to the pot, spooning their sauce over them to coat everything evenly.
5
Close and secure the lid again. Set your pressure cooker to high pressure once more, and set a timer for 10 minutes. Allow about 10 minutes for the pressure to build up again.
6
Finally, release the pressure using the natural-release method, and let it take about 15 minutes. Season your dish with some salt and pepper to taste
