Press SAUTE button on Instant Pot and allow pot to heat up.

Add beef roast and sear on one side for 4 minutes. Flip roast over and sear other side for 4 minutes.

Pour beef broth in the bottom and use a wooden spoon or spatula to scrape and loosen any cooked bits on the bottom of the pan (but keep them in the pan because they will add so much flavor!).
