Instant Pot Ground Beef Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Add the oil to the Instant Pot® and set to saute (see Cook's Note).
• Meanwhile, toss the beef with the flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and a generous amount of pepper in a medium bowl. Add the meat and all the flour to the Instant Pot® in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Stir once and allow to brown for another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir to coat. Add the wine and bring to a boil. Cook for 1 minute, scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon.
• Add the carrots, celery, thyme and onions and stir to coat. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and set to pressure cook on high for 40 minutes. After the pressure cycle is complete follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick release cycle is complete. Careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Melt butter and cook beef chuck cubes in batches until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch.
• Return all beef chuck to the pot. Add potatoes, mushrooms, onion, carrots, and garlic; cover with beef broth. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and rosemary. Close and lock the lid. Select Meat/Stew function according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 35 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.

Steps:

• Press SAUTE button. Once heated up, add in ground beef, onion, and celery. Cook until beef is no longer pink and onion is translucent. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
• Press CANCEL button so that it stops cooking the beef.
• Add in the potatoes and carrots sprinkle the onion soup mix on top.
• Pour the beef broth, tomato sauce, and diced tomatoes on top of the potatoes and carrots. Gently mix together.
• Place the lid on top of the Instant pot. Move the valve to SEALING (not venting).
• Press the MANUAL button and set timer for 8 minutes.
• When the timer is done, allow the Instant Pot to do a natural release for at least 15 minutes (you can go longer if desired).
• Move the valve to VENTING and release remaining pressure.
• Remove the lid and mix in the cream of mushroom soup and frozen mixed vegetables. Let the stew sit for 3-5 minutes so that the vegetables can cook.
• Dish into bowls and serve!

Steps:

• On a cutting board, pat the cubed chuck roast dry with paper towels. Season all over with the salt and pepper.
• Set the Instant Pot to sauté and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the beef, working in batches to avoid overcrowding, and brown on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the browned beef to a plate to rest.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the onion to the Instant Pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften, 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, 1 minute.
• Add the tomato paste and thyme and stir to combine, about 1 minute. Add the Worcestershire sauce and ½ cup of beef broth and stir to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Add the carrots, celery, potatoes, seared beef, and remaining 2 cups of beef broth to the pot and secure the lid. Set the Instant Pot to pressure cook on high for 30 minutes. When the timer is up, let the Instant Pot naturally release for 10 minutes. If there is any remaining pressure, switch the valve to quick release.
• Remove the lid from the Instant Pot and set to sauté.
• In a small bowl, stir the cornstarch and water together until the cornstarch is dissolved.
• Add the cornstarch slurry and peas to the Instant Pot and stir to combine. Cook until the broth thickens, about 1 minute.
• Ladle the stew into bowls and garnish with the parsley.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Place your trivet in the Instant Pot. Pour in one cup of water. Place your frozen beef on top of the trivet.
• Put the lid on the Instant Pot and turn the knob to sealing.
• Push the MANUAL button (or pressure cook button) and set the time for 25 minutes.
• Once the timer is done, let the Instant Pot do a NATURAL RELEASRE for 10-15 minutes. Turn the knob to release any additional pressure.
• Take your meat out of the Instant Pot and place in a bowl. Cut or chop the meat up (I love using a Chop Stir for this).
