This venison roast Instant Pot recipe came to my rescue! Cooking venison pot roast used to be a weekend-only thing for me because of the 10 hours of slow cooking it took to get the meat tender. Then there was the guesswork of when to add the veggies. If you added them in the beginning, they became mush. If you waited too long to add them, they were underdone, and to get them done, the venison got overdone. This Instant Pot recipe results in perfectly tender venison roast and perfectly crisp-tender veggies in 3 hours.
