CL Beef Pot Roast and Gravy - 6-Qt Pressure Cooker
.JPG)
Entered for safe-keeping, adapted from Julianna Grimes, September 2010 Cooking Light. Calls for 6- or 8-quart pressure cooker. For best results, use Pressure Cooker Beef Stock for lower sodium but rich taste. Don't omit the parsnips or turnips -- they provide a very mellow flavor. I don't see many potatoes labeled Yukon Gold any more; now they might be called "yellow". A serving = 3 oz. beef, 2/3 cup vegetables, and 2 tablespoons sauce.
