Do you have an Instant Pot yet? I’ve had one for a while, but just started really using it this year. The more I use my Instant Pot, the more I love it. This Instant Pot Beef Stew was so simple to make. Just sauté the stew meat, dump the rest of the ingredients in the pot and cook. With only about 5 minutes of hands on time, you are rewarded with an amazing meal! SO much better than going out to eat!

We served this beef stew with some cornbread. I just popped the cornbread in the oven when I turned on the Instant Pot and everything was ready at the same time. We ate this for dinner and leftover for lunch the next day. It was equally delicious reheated. Chicken Legs has already requested this again for dinner!
