Ingredients
 

  • 2 pounds chuck roast, cubed with fat trimmed
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 cups celery, chopped
  • 2 cups turnip, peeled and chopped
  • 3/4 cup carrot, peeled and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 2 Bay leaves
  • 32 ounces beef broth

Instructions
 

  • Add the olive oil to the instant pot and turn on the saute function. When the oil starts to sizzle add the seasoned, cubed meat. Cook the meat until browned on all sides. You may want to do this in two batches.
  • Remove the meat from the slow cooker and set aside.
  • Add the onion and garlic. Sauté until the onions have softened. Add the tomato paste, and spices. Stir the sauce until smooth.
  • Add the browned beef, vegetables, broth, Worcestershire Sauce, and bay leaves. Stir well.
  • Place the lid on the Instant Pot. Make sure the valve is sealed and set the machine to pressure cook for 35 minutes.
  • Allow the machine to naturally release the pressure for 10 minutes when the cooking time has finished.
  • Remove the bay leaves before serving.
  • If you wish to make your stew thicker simply turn the saute function on after the cooking time and allow the mixture to simmer without the lid until it reaches your desired consistancy.

Notes

Stove Top Beef Stew Instructions:

Add your oil to a large pot or dutch oven on medium high heat. Sear beef until all sides are browned. Remove from pot, then add onions and garlic to sauté.
Once onions are soft, add in your tomato paste and spices. Stir until it forms a smooth sauce, then toss in your browned beef, broth, Worcestershire Sauce, and bay leaves. Stir well.
Bring this to a boil, then turn the heat down to low and cover. Let this simmer 1.5-2 hours or until beef is tender. If the broth level looks low, add a little more.
Once beef is very tender, add vegetables and continue to simmer for 30 minutes (or until vegetables are tender). If you prefer a thicker soup, allow to simmer longer uncovered.

Slow Cooker Beef Stew Instructions:

Arrange all cut vegetables, cubed beef*, and other ingredients into a slow cooker. Stir well so that liquid and seasoning coats all ingredients. Cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high 4-5 hours. If the meat doesn't feel tender, let it cook a bit longer.
**If possible, brown your cubed beef in a skillet on medium heat before putting into the slow cooker. This adds a ton of flavor and helps create juicy, tender, flavorful chunks of meat! However, if you are unable to do this, your stew will still be delicious!
