- Hello friends, it is a rainy
but it's not cold, we'll just pretend it's cold,
but it is a rainy, drizzly weekend afternoon here
and because fall is on it's way,
fall is here, by the time you see this, yes fall is here
so I'm making a big hearty pot of large family,
of course, Instant Pot beef stew.
So here's my beef stew meat.
This is from the pasture raised cow that I bought.
This stew meat is in nice vacuum sealed packages
which I really appreciate but of course,
whenever you pull frozen meat from the freezer,
even though you can cook from frozen in the Instant Pot,
I still have to get it out of it's packages,
so I follow the, I believe it's the USDA
or whoever, people, authority who write
these food safety guidelines.
One of the ways to safely defrost items
can be in a bowl of cold water
for no more than 30 minutes.
After that you have to change the water out.
So my stew meat has been in here
for right at about 30 minutes.
Right now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna get
four tablespoons of this grass fed Kerrygold butter
sauteing in the Instant Pot and then we're gonna,
I don't even have my onions sitting out yet,
then we're gonna saute that onion first
and then we'll add the meat.
So then if you are new to the Instant Pot
there is a saute setting. (Instant Pot beeping)
And that allows you to add in different vegetables
or meats or whatever you want to saute before you cook it.
(butter sizzling)
There's the butter going.
And then I'm just gonna stir up those onions.
Now I'm not gonna make this beef stew
a true like keto, super low carb stew
but it is easily adaptable because whenever I have mine
I don't have to put big chunks of potato
and a whole lot of carrots in it.
I can just have a lot of the meat
and the onion and the broth
but if you wanted to make a true keto
or Trim Healthy Momma version of this stew,
you'd look for more root vegetables.
So basically leave the potatoes out
but you can use radishes.
Those cook up and have the same texture
and you can still do some carrots.
You can do some zucchini.
You can do whatever seasonal vegetables
you have available to you now.
So we're waiting on that onion.
I'm gonna go ahead and work on prepping
these potatoes and carrots.
I actually didn't get too far with the carrots
because now the onions are done
so I'm gonna go ahead and drain the water
from this stew meat.
Okay, so now I'm gonna take this over.
I'm gonna get this sauteing in the Instant Pot.
So here is how things are lookin'.
I ended up fitting about three pounds
of the beef stew actual meat in here,
letting that sit and saute,
stirring it every 20 seconds or so,
if you want to be precise.
I've got a little bit of the meat
that looks to be a little over a pound or so left.
When the stew is done though,
I will cook that up separate and have that on salad
or something good this week.
There's our carrots all diced up.
That again, is a whole pound.
And so then over here, here's how
our meat and onions were lookin'
and I'm just gonna leave it on the saute mode for right now.
That just kind of heats everything up.
We're gonna get the spices in.
What I'm doin' is just a teaspoon of basil,
teaspoon of thyme, teaspoon of sage,
a tablespoon of parsley cause I always like
to see those big parsley flakes
floatin' around in a good stew.
Two tablespoons of minced garlic.
Also, I'm gonna do two teaspoons of pepper,
two teaspoons of salt.
I know some of you all ask me about salt and pepper.
I don't always note that because I feel like
that's just based on a personal taste
but that's what I'm doing in this recipe.
Here is how things are looking.
Each of these little jars is eight ounces
so these are four jars, the equivalent of four cups,
of homemade pasture raised beef bone broth
and I'm gonna put this in the Instant Pot now.
If you don't have homemade bone beef broth don't worry.
It just happens to be something new I'm working on.
Anywho, I'm gonna put in four cups
but you put in four cups of whatever beef broth
you have on hand.
I did bone broth last week.
I think I canned maybe 12 jars of it?
Besides what I used in some cabbage soup I was doing.
I am going to go ahead and also add in four cups of water
because I want a lot of additional broth made in the stew
and I am not adding in cornstarch or any other thickeners.
It is going to be chunky and lovely
and all kinds of wholesome goodness here
in about 20 minutes, once it reaches pressure, yay.
So you can do it one of two ways.
You can do the meat/stew button for 35 minutes
or do manual for 35 minutes,
and I just tend to do a lot of things on manual.
I think it's kind of six one way, half dozen another
so there ya go, 35 minutes,
we're gonna have lovely beef stew.
A lot of you like to know what Travis is doing
when I'm making videos and doing things
so I'm gonna show you what Mr. Travis is doing right now.
So you may not be able to hear me,
but he's been, we've been cutting down trees
and just beautifying, at least about the acre
we have behind our house.
This giant rock, was under this dirt,
stickin' up just a little
and, hello Mr. Travis, Mr. Travis and Zion
have worked very carefully and gotten this
out of the ground.
Let me try to show you how big it is.
Woo!
Okay, so we got this big thing and then,
there's my foot in comparison, look at that, it's mammoth.
(machinery whirring)
Travis cares about you guys,
we wanted me to show you his rock collection.
So these are the rocks that he's been digging up.
He started all the way up here, little property marker.
I'm gonna get you and Daniel in a bubble bath.
You go wash your hands real quick
and I'll give you a few, okay?
- I already did.
- [Jamerrill] You already did wash your hands?
- Yeah. - Okay.
So I'm gonna get them bubble bathin' here
while we wait on dinner but I cut up,
I had a red pepper, a yellow pepper--
What color do you want Amelia? - I want three.
- You want one of each, okay. - I like all the kinds.
- [Jamerrill] Yeah, they're real good.
Did you have fun outside? - Yeah.
- [Jamerrill] What are some things your were doing?
- Mommy do you have green peppers?
- I don't, I only have red, orange and yellow.
They're good though, yummy, yummy.
We have one minute let on this Instant Pot.
Then I'm gonna let it do a natural release
so it'll take 10 minutes or so until it's truly to the point
wherever we can open the lid.
I wanted to tell you though, if you are a momma
who doesn't have an Instant Pot or a Go Wise
or any other brand of electric pressure cooker,
you can still make this awesome and hearty
large family style beef stew.
All you need to do is do it in your slow cooker.
So you would just saute your onions and your stew meat
on the stove top, then add that
along with all the other ingredients that I listed
and load that into your eight quart slow cooker
and then cook it on low for up to eight hours
and it should be, viola, perfect.
And then what I did with that, about almost a pound
of stew meat that I wasn't gonna put in my Instant Pot,
the reason I wasn't doin' that
is 'cause I have so many people
who follow my recipes exactly and I just didn't want
to lead anyone to fill their pot too full
so I thought I would hold off 'cause honestly,
for my family, I would have done four pounds of meat
so that extra pound I just did in this pot,
if I don't steam up my camera.
And then once it was done, I cooked it with
about a tablespoon or so of olive oil.
Then once it was done I added in two more cups of water,
just to make some broth there
and then I will probably, I could as that to our stew
once it's done.
Okay guys, so now we're gonna take the lid off
and give this a look.
I did already make sure the pressure
was released and twisted so can just pull it off.
Here we go!
Oh, it's looking so lovely
and it smells so good.
So Travis and Zion are still working outside.
I'm going to serve the kids around the counter
and we're gonna have this hearty beef stew
and then we have these various pepper strips
so they'll all have some peppers, also.
And here's how I did mine.
You mommas following keto or Trim Healthy Momma,
this is a whole lot of broth, a whole lot
of the big meat chunks and I have very few
little carrot shavings in there
and maybe five little potato cubes so there ya go.
The recipe will be over on largefamilytable.com
and Benjamin's sayin' goodbye.
Teaspoon of basil, tea-speen, tea-speen, ya, tea-speen!
