Turn the instant pot on the sauté setting. Add 1 pound ground beef, 1 pound Italian ground sausage, ½ diced onion, and 1 tablespoon minced garlic.
Cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until the beef and sausage are browned and the onion is softened.
Drain any excess grease and return the insert to the Instant Pot.
Turn off the sauté setting.

Place the lid on top, and make sure the valve is set to sealing.
Hit the manual button and set the time for high pressure for 15 minutes.
When finished do a quick release to release the steam. Stir.
Serve meat sauce over your favorite pasta and enjoy!
