    Instant Pot Beef Stew

    Gentle whispers of stewed to perfection beef and vegetables echo through the home like the memories of seasons past as you place your cold hands around a warm bowl of this American classic. Tender chunks of fresh braised beef, suspended in gravy like soup, patiently await your taste as you carefully chew through hot chunks of filling potatoes being careful not to burn your tongue. I love to enjoy a meal like this with subtle seasonal music playing softly in the background as my family quitely slurps through the contents of their bowls. Family traditions are easily established on the foundation of good food accompanied with a relaxing atmosphere. Fresh ingredients are key to the success of this dish as the bay leaves provide a soft note of enhancement to the profile of this well structured bowl of stew.

    This is another fine example of how the pressure cooking feature of the Instant Pot locks in flavors that would take hours to release over a stove top. Watch the video then follow the instructions below to have this robust stew ready to serve with your favorite cornbread, fresh bread or cracker.  Like and share this or any of the recipes you find interesting from my growing catalogue of daily suggestions.
