Step 1

Trim fat from meat. Cut meat into eight equal pieces. In a small bowl, combine cumin, paprika, garlic powder, pepper, and salt. Sprinkle mixture evenly over meat pieces; rub in with your fingers. In a 6-quart pressure cooker, heat oil over medium-high heat. Brown meat pieces, half at a time, in hot oil, turning to brown on all sides. Remove meat from cooker; set aside. Drain fat from cooker. Cool slightly.

Step 2

Add stock to the cooker. Add the cooking rack to the cooker. Place meat pieces on the rack. Lock lid in place. Bring to pressure over high heat; immediately reduce heat to stabilize and maintain pressure. Cook for 25 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside to depressurize cooker.

Step 3

Transfer meat to a serving platter. If making Beef & Noodles (see associated recipes), reserve cooking liquid. Slice meat or cut into chunks to serve.
