Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.

Step 2

Place beef bones, carrots, celery, onion, and garlic on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Roast in the preheated oven until browned, about 45 minutes.

Step 4

Scrape roasted bones and vegetables into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Add boiling water, bay leaves, vinegar, sea salt, and peppercorns. Close and lock the lid. Select Manual function according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 120 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
