3. 3 Bake in the preheated oven until bones are browned and charred in spots, about 40 minutes, turning once halfway through.
4. 4 Transfer bones to an 8-quart multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Add carrots, onion, garlic, apple cider vinegar, and bay leaves; pour in enough water to cover. Select Sauté function and bring to a boil, uncovered, for about 20 minutes.

Instructions

1. 1 Place chuck roast, onion, carrots, celery, peppercorns, cloves, garlic, cinnamon stick, rosemary, and bay leaves into a stockpot. Pour wine over meat and vegetable mixture to cover entirely. Cover and marinate for 6 hours in the refrigerator. Turn meat in marinade to make sure it is completely covered, then return to the refrigerator and marinate for 6 more hours.
2. 2 Transfer chuck roast to a plate to rest; pat dry thoroughly with paper towels. Pour marinade through a strainer and into a bowl to separate vegetable mixture from wine, reserving both separately.

Uncover, stir, and cook until meat easily shreds with a fork, 10 minutes to 1 hour longer. Transfer meat from the cooking liquid to a serving platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
5. 5 Return cooking liquid to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer until reduced to a sauce consistency, 20 to 30 minutes. Discard cinnamon stick, rosemary, and bay leaves.
