1 packet onion soup mix
1 bottle dark beer (or 2 cans)

Where to find ingredients
You can find beef cuts like inside round at local butcher shops (buchas) or the meat section of major supermarkets. Onion soup mix is typically available in the dry goods or seasoning aisle. If you cannot find a specific Brazilian cut like coxão mole, any lean, tender beef roasting cut is an excellent substitute.
Preparation method
- In a pressure cooker, combine the dark beer and the contents of the onion soup mix packet.
- Add the sliced coxão mole to the pot, ensuring the pieces are well distributed.
- Secure the pressure cooker lid and cook over high heat until full pressure is reached.
- Reduce the heat and cook for 40 minutes after reaching pressure.
- Turn off the heat and allow all the pressure to release naturally before opening the lid.
- Serve the pot roast while hot.
Observations
This quick pot roast recipe is perfect for when you want a flavorful, no-fuss meal without spending hours at the stove.

It is a crowd-pleasing dish that is just as suitable for a busy weeknight as it is for special occasions that require efficiency in the kitchen.
