Thanks to the Instant Pot this Venison Rump Roast with all the fixings does not need to be reserved for Sunday dinner.

Any day of the week you can enjoy this tender roast.

To begin I prepared the potatoes by peeling and cutting them into  quarters.  I also cut up an onion.

Next I put some olive oil in the Instant Pot, turned it to the saute function and when hot placed the roast in the Pot.

I browned the roast on both sides before removing it and setting it on a plate.

Now I removed the roast from the Pot and added a cut up yellow onion and some sliced mushrooms.

I cooked them on the saute function until the onions were soft.

Then I poured in 2 1/2 cups of beef broth and deglazed the bottom of the Pot making sure to remove all the brown bits.

Next I placed the trivet in the Instant Pot and lowered the rump roast on top of it.

I have a steamer basket for my Instant Pot and I used it for the potatoes and vegetables.  I placed the basket on top of the meat.

Then I placed the lid on the Instant Pot, turned the steam release handle to the sealing position and set the Instant Pot to Pressure Cook High for 32 minutes.

When the Instant Pot was done cooking, I allowed it to natural release for 8 minutes. Then I turned the steam release handle to the venting position to finish with a quick release.

After removing the lid I used oven mitts and carefully removed the potatoes and the roast.

Now I sprinkled 3 packets of gluten free brown gravy mix into the liquid in the Pot and turned it to the sauté function.

I stirred in the powder and stirred until it had thickened to gravy consistency.

When the gravy was ready I sliced the rump roast.

It was a real treat to sit down to this amazing meal after working all day!
