Notes

Tips and Tricks

Use pre-cut vegetables to save time on preparation.
Cut the beef into evenly sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
Sear the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the Instant Pot.
Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot before adding the vegetables and liquid.
Allow the pressure to naturally release for at least 10 minutes before manually releasing the remaining pressure.
Use the Instant Pot's "sauté" function to thicken the stew after cooking, if desired.
