This is an all-in-one dish.

FREEZER TO INSTANT POT: Run warm water around outside of plastic container 1-2 min to loosen the entree. Add 1 cup water to Instant Pot. Pop frozen entree out of container and place "onion-side" down in Instant Pot.  Lock lid into place and make sure valve is in the Sealing position. Pressure cook on high pressure for 55 minutes. Quick Release carefully - the steam will burn! (Tip: We use a kitchen towel to cover the valve and release the pressure in small increments.) Once the valve drops down and the pressure has been completely released, open the Instant Pot and stir. For a thicker gravy, turn the Instant Pot on Saute and simmer, uncovered, for up to 10 min, stirring constantly. 

OPTION: Can also do a Natural Release + Keep Warm if more convenient. Follow gravy instructions above. 

PRO INSTANT POT TIP: Occasionally the pressure valve on an Instant Pot won't pop up, but the timer will start. If the valve has not popped up, the Instant Pot has not reached pressure and the dish will not cook properly. If this happens, hit the cancel button and carefully open the Instant Pot. Stir dish, scraping up any bits off the bottom of the inner pot, and then restart the cooking process. 

CROCK POT: Thaw pot roast completely. Add 3/4 cup water to bottom of crock pot, stir in pot roast. Slow cook on high for 3 to 5 hours until beef is fork-tender. Crock pots can vary significantly; if beef is not tender after 5 hours, it needs to cook more! Before serving, stir gravy to mix well. If gravy is too thin, pour into a saucepan and simmer, stirring frequently, until thickens to desired consistency.
