Description

An easy Instant Pot meal with seasoned beef, tender potatoes, cheddar cheese, and tangy pickles, all topped with a creamy homemade Big Mac-style sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 12 ounces Russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 1 Tbsp yellow mustard
  • 1/4 cup diced dill pickles
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Big Mac Sauce

  • 2 Tbsp mayo
  • 2 Tbsp ketchup
  • 2 Tbsp diced dill pickles
  • 1 Tbsp pickle juice

Instructions

  1. Turn Instant Pot to saute setting. When display says HOT add in the beef and break it up. Add in the onion. Brown for 5 minutes. Drain off excess grease. Stir in the salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  2. Pour in the broth and scrape bottom of pot so that nothing is sticking. Turn off Instant Pot.
  3. Add in the potatoes and mustard. 
  4. Cover Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 3 minutes. When time is up let pot sit for 5-10 minutes and then move the valve to venting. Remove the lid.

  6. In a bowl stir together the sauce ingredients (mayo, ketchup, pickles, pickle juice). 
  7. Scoop meat and potatoes onto a plate and drizzle with the sauce. 

Notes

This recipe can easily be doubled to serve 4-6 people. Double all ingredients except the broth.
