This is an old recipe, pretty much as I've been doing it ever since I can remember, and not far removed from how my mother did it when she was raising three hungry kids. It's pure comfort food in the truest sense of the word.
The pressure cooker contributes two aspects to the cook. First, the roast is actually totally cooked and falling apart tender in 45 minutes, not the typical 3 hours for a pot roast. Second, the pressure and temperatures inside it infuse all the flavors together in ways that just don't happen the same any other way. I've done pot roasts many times in the oven, and they're fine, but I always come back to the pressure cooker when I want it MY WAY.
