TOTAL TIME
1
In a food processor or blender, combine low-sodium beef broth, minced garlic, chopped chipotle pepper, chopped red onion, fresh lime juice, chili powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until smooth, then set aside.
2
Press the 'Saute' setting on a 6 or 8 quart Instant Pot, add olive oil, and wait until the setting reads 'HOT'.
3
Add beef chuck roast cubes and sear, stirring about every minute, until the meat is browned on all sides. This should take about 10 minutes.
4
Press the 'Cancel' button on the Instant Pot, pour your blended sauce over the meat, and toss until the beef is evenly coated.
5
Close the lid, set the vent to 'Sealing', and press 'Pressure Cooker'. Set to 'High pressure' and set the cooking time to 55 minutes using the '+/-' buttons.
6
Allow about 10 minutes for the Instant Pot to come up to pressure, then the cooking time will start.
7
When the cooking time is completed, use a gloved hand or long tongs to carefully turn the vent to 'Venting' and allow steam to quick release. Vent until all steam is released and the pressure valve has dropped.
8
Remove the lid and use two forks to lightly shred the beef. Toss the beef in pan juices and serve warm.
