Ridiculously Tender Beef Tips with Mushroom Gravy

butter

chuck

all-purpose flour

onion, diced

baby Bella mushrooms,

½ teaspoon EACH: garlic powder AND sugar

EACH: onion powder, dried thyme, AND mushroom powder

Worcestershire sauce

bay leaf

pepperoncini peppers, thinly sliced

cornstarch

SEAR: Season the beef with the flour, a big pinch of salt and pepper; mix well. Heat the butter in the instant pot on the sauté setting or a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. When it melts sear the beef in batches to form a brown crust, remove to a plate, and continue searing the remaining beef. Add the onions and switch to a wooden spoon. Sauté them for 1 minute, scraping the bottom of the pot to make sure no brown bits are left stuck on.

SLOW COOKER: Place 2 cups of beef stock...

SLOW COOKER: Place 2 cups of beef stock along with the remaining ingredients in the slow cooker (except the corn starch) and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 5-7 hours. 35 minutes before the cooking time is up, combine ½ cup of the liquid from the slow cooker and the cornstarch in a small bowl, whisk until smooth. Add to the slow cooker and allow for the food to cook for the remaining 30 minutes. If the gravy is too thick, add a few tablespoons of water to thin it to your desired consistency. If you still find your gravy is thin, add more cornstarch mixed with a tablespoon of water. Adjust salt and pepper to preference and serve over rice/mashed potatoes/cauliflower mash, etc.

OR INSTANT POT:  Place 1 ½ cups of...

OR INSTANT POT:  Place 1 ½ cups of beef stock along with the remaining ingredients in the instant pot (except the cornstarch) and select the meat/stew setting. Cook on manual high pressure for 35 minutes. Once the stew is cooked allow natural pressure release for 10-15 minutes. This gives the meat a chance to really soak up all those flavors. Click the ‘sauté’ setting. Dissolve the cornstarch with 2-3 tablespoons of water and add that to the instant pot once the liquid starts bubbling. Allow the sauce to thicken, about 1-2 minutes, stir to combine. If the gravy becomes too thick, you can add a couple more tablespoons of water to thin it to your desired consistency. Adjust salt and pepper to preference and serve over mashed cauliflower, mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.

Instant Pot Beef Stew is a simple and hearty meal done in under an hour from start to finish thanks to our friendly Electric Pressure Cooker, the Instant Pot! The beef chunks are tender, the potatoes and carrots are perfectly cooked and that gravy is to die for! 

Instant Pot Beef Stew

lb stew meat (regular

flour

salt

tbsp butter

beef broth

pkg au jus seasoning mix

ketchup

tsp parsley

onion

petitie carrots

potatoes

Preheat the Instant Pot by setting it to saute HIGH.

While the Instant Pot is preheating, combine the flour and salt in a large zip top bag.

Add the stew meat to the flour and shake to cover the stew meat.

Once the Instant Pot display reads HOT add the butter to the Instant Pot and allow it to melt.

Once the butter is melted, add in the floured stew meat (discarding the extra flour) and brown the meat.

Once the meat is browned (about 10 minutes) add the beef broth and water. Scrape the bottom of the Instant Pot until all stuck on bits are removed from the bottom of the liner.

Add in the au jus seasoning mix, worchestershire sauce, ketchup and parsley.

Secure the lid, position the knob to sealing. Cook on manual HIGH. If using tenderized stew meat, cook for 20 minutes. If using regular stew meat, cook for 35 minutes.

While the stew meat is cooking, prepare the veggies.

When the stew meat is done cooking and the Instant Pot beeps, quick release the pressure.

Add in the veggies and pressure cook on HIGH for an additional 2 minutes. Again, quick release the pressure.

Salt and pepper to taste, and serve!

PASTE: Combine the ingredients for the paste in a small bowl and slowly stir in 1/2 cup of hot water. Mix and set this aside for now.

SEAR THE MEAT: Season the meat with a...

SEAR THE MEAT: Season the meat with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a large chili pot over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the pot and add a few pieces of meat at a time. Sear the meat on all sides, about 2-3 minutes and remove it to a plate. Repeat the process until all the meat is seared. You may need a little more oil than what's listed just depends on how well marbled the meat is.

CHILI: If you need it, add another drizzle...

CHILI: If you need it, add another drizzle of oil to the pan along with the chopped onions and the poblanos. Use a wooden spoon to help scrape any brown bits left behind by the meat and cook for 5 minutes. Then, add the garlic and jalapeños and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes or until fragrant. Add the prepared chili paste to the pot and stir it in so that it coats everything nicely. Allow the paste to cook for 1 minute before adding the brown sugar, Worcestershire, beef broth, tomato sauce, 1 cup water and ½ teaspoon salt. Use the wooden spoon to scrape the bottom so that none of the chili paste is sticking.

COOK: Add the seared meat and allow the chili to come to a boil before lowering the heat to low and allowing it to cook for 2 ½ - 3 ½ hours. Set aside 1 cup of water and add in a ¼ cup every time you stir the chili if it's thickened. Stir the chili every 30-45 minutes to make sure it's not sticking. You may not need all of the water if you're going bean-free, with beans you generally need a little more. I like to add the beans around the 2-hour mark so that they have a chance to cook for at least half an hour before serving. Serve topped with all your favorite chili toppings!
