Beef Shings Instant Pot Pressure Cooker
Jump to Recipe
Preparing classic Osso Buco has never been this easy or fast! When you make Osso Buco in your Instant Pot, the meat comes out ultra tender and the sauce is rich and delicious, and it's all cooked in about an hour!
Why it Works
Osso Buco is a fabulous classic Italian dish known for its simple elegance and rich flavor.
The meat is fall apart tender, and the marrow inside the bone becomes ultra creamy and delicious. It's cooked in a sauce deeply flavored with tomatoes, herbs, vegetables, and wine.
It's s a cozy, hearty meal perfect for family or entertaining friends.
Traditionally, Osso Buco would be cooked slowly over several hours, but no more!
Making Osso Buco in the Instant Pot means it's cooked in under an hour, and it's almost all hands-off. It tastes like it's been slowly simmering away all day, but it hasn't!
That's the beauty of cooking Instant Pot recipes, don't you think?

Ingredients
- Osso Buco (Beef or Veal Shanks). This cut is a cross cut portion of the veal or beef shank.
- White Wine. Choose a drier, crisp white wine, like Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc. White wine is preferred in Osso Buco, but a dry red wine would be a suitable substitute.
- Beef Stock
- Diced Tomatoes
- Olive Oil
- Produce: Carrots, onion, celery, and garlic.
- Herbs: Dried thyme, rosemary, and oregano.
👉 Tip: Save the vegetable and herb scraps and make Vegetable Stock in your Instant Pot!
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1: Turn the Instant Pot to Sauté Mode and set it to High heat. Meanwhile, take a few paper towels and pat both sides of the osso buco dry. Season both sides of the meat with salt and pepper.
👉 Optionally, tie a piece of kitchen twine around each piece of meat, following the circular width of the shank. This will help to keep the pieces together as it cooks, but it does not change the flavor or cooking time at all.
Add the oil to the inner pot, then add the meat. Allow it to brown on each side for about 3-4 minutes, then set it aside. If necessary, brown the pieces one at a time to avoid overcrowding the pot.
Step 2: Keep the Instant Pot set to Sauté mode. Add the carrots, onion, celery, and garlic to the pot. Saute the vegetables for 4-5 minutes, until softened slightly.
Step 3: Deglaze the pan by pouring in the wine and using a wooden spoon to scrape all the brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Those brown bits are flavor city!!
Step 4: Assemble for cooking. Add the tomatoes, stock, and herbs to the Pot. Give it a quick stir.
Step 5: Return the browned meat to the Instant Pot, nestled into the liquid and vegetable mixture. It does NOT need to be completely covered by liquid.
Step 6: Cook the dish. Close the lid and turn to High Pressure for 45 minutes. Allow for a NPR (natural pressure release), which means simply waiting for the pressure to naturally dissipate over time. It usually takes 15-20 minutes. Carefully open the lid and remove the meat. Serve in bowls with the rich, chunky sauce ladled on top.
👉 I don't recommend using the "Keep Warm" function for more than 30-40 minutes. It continues the cooking process (at a super low rate!). It could potentially overcook your meal, so it should only be used for shorter periods of time.
Optional: Osso Buco is traditionally served with a bit of zesty gremolata on top.
Make a simple gremolata by combining 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 2 tablespoons minced parsley, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon oil together. Sprinkle each bowl with a bit of gremolata.
Expert Tips & Info
What to serve with Osso Buco?
Serve with cauliflower mash, spaghetti squash, mashed potatoes, risotto, crispy potatoes, or crusty bread. Traditionally, the dish is served with a gremolata on top (see the recipe below), but that's optional.
What cut of meat is Osso Buco?
Osso Buco is a cross cut of the shank part of veal or beef. The Italian Osso Buco literally translates to "Bone with Hole." It has a hollow bone in the middle, which is filled with rich, creamy, tasty marrow. It's a tougher cut of meat with plenty of fat, and is best prepared slowly over low heat or in a pressure cooker until it's fall apart tender.
How to get tender meat in the Instant Pot?
Using a natural pressure release helps to keep the meat tender. If pressed for time, NPR for at least 10-15 minutes, then turn or press the steam release valve.
How to store leftover Osso Buco?
Allow the Osso Buco to cool, then transfer to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, per USDA.
