Instant Pot Beef Selection

  • 1 ¼ pound Beef Chuck Roast Cubed

Ingredient To Add To Instant Pot

  • 2 cans Cream of Mushroom Soup
  • 14.5 oz can Beef Stock
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 medium Onion Julienne / long cuts
  • 1 large Carrot Cut into coins
  • 6 Yukon Gold Potatoes Peeled/cubed

Instant Pot Beef Seasoning

  • 1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder

Instructions
 

How to Make Instant Pot Beef

  • Combine all the beef seasoning ingredients into a medium-sized bowl
    Cut the chuck beef roast into 1 to 2 inch pieces, larger if you desire.
    Add the beef to the seasoning.
    Allow the beef to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. 
  • Slice the onion and carrots how you enjoy them. The potatoes need to be cut into larger pieces due to the fact that pressure cooking can cause them to fall apart.
    Add cream of mushroom soup and the beef stock to the instant pot and mix together well. Then add the vegetables and stir. 
    Add the seasoned beef and stir. 

Instant Pot Settings

  • Instant Pot Mode: Stew / Meat
    Temperature: "Normal" see in the photo below where my finger is pointing? The 3 settings listed as "less", "Normal" and "More are temperature settings.
    Timer: Set for 40 minutes

Instant Pot Natural Release

  • Once the timer goes off allow the Instant Pot to natural release for 10 minutes. Then you can do a quick release. The cream of mushroom soup would just spray everywhere if you do not give it a few minutes to natural release.
    Natural release = doing nothing at all once the timer goes off

Cooking Suggestion

  • If the chuck beef has already been cut and cubed from the grocery store and the pieces are small, reduce the cook time on the Instant pot from 40 minutes to 35 or 30 minutes depending on the size of the cubed beef.
