How To Make Our Instant Pot Mississippi Pot Roast:
Get out your Instant Pot, plug it in, and press the SAUTE button and allow the inner pot of the Instant Pot to heat up.
Then, add in the olive oil and let that heat up.
Once the oil is hot, place the beef roast inside, and let it sear on one side for 4 minutes and then using tongs, flip it over to the other side and let it sear on the other side for another 4 minutes.
After the beef is done searing, pour in the beef broth and then use a wooden spatula to scrape off any of the pieces of beef stuck to the pot.
PRO TIP: This will keep the Instant Pot from giving you the BURN signal, but leave the pieces in there because they also hold a lot of flavor.
Next, pour in the pepperoncini juice and sprinkle the dry ranch dressing mix and brown gravy mix on top of the beef roast.
Once that is done, place the peppers on top of and around the beef roast, and then place the pieces of butter on top of the roast.
When that is all set, place the lid on the Instant Pot and turn the valve to the SEALING position.
Now press the MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK button and set the timer for 60 minutes (or 20 minutes per pound of beef you bought).
When the timer runs out let the Instant Pot do a natural release of the pressure. This will take about 20 or so minutes.
Then, remove the beef from the inner pot, and either shred it or slice the beef and serve it warm!
