Ingredients

  • A generous spoonful of butter
  • Sliced onion, a half
  • Diced garlic cloves, a handful
  • A piece of ginger root, peeled and finely grated, approximately one inch in size
  • Seasoned rice vinegar, two tablespoons
  • Chuck roast, three pounds, trimmed and cut into large pieces
  • Brown sugar, half a cup
  • Soy sauce, one-third cup
  • Sesame oil, a tablespoon
  • Chile-garlic paste, a spoonful
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to your liking

Step 1

Heat up your versatile pressure cooker and set it to Saute mode. Start by melting butter and sautéing onion until it turns tender and translucent, which should take around 5 minutes. Introduce garlic and ginger to the mix, letting their fragrant aromas fill the air for about 30 seconds. To infuse more flavor, deglaze the pot with a splash of vinegar and make sure to scrape up any tasty bits stuck to the bottom.

Step 2

Now, it's time to add in the chuck pieces, along with brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, a kick of chile-garlic paste, and a pinch of salt and black pepper for a well-rounded taste profile.

Step 3

Once all the ingredients are in, seal the lid securely and make sure the vent is closed. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to set the cooker to high pressure and adjust the timer to 45 minutes. Give it some time, about 10 to 15 minutes, for the pressure to build up and work its magic.

Step 4

When the timer goes off, carefully release the pressure using the quick-release method as per the manufacturer's guidelines, which should take roughly 5 minutes. Unlock the lid and unveil the delicious aroma that awaits. Take out the beef, shred it into succulent pieces, and savor the flavorful results of your efforts.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your go-to Korean BBQ marinade in a mason jar for easy access and to infuse more flavor into your tacos.
  2. 2. Utilize magnetic spice containers on the side of your refrigerator to store all your essential Korean spices like gochugaru and sesame seeds.
