Instructions

To make in your instant pot: Drizzle olive oil in the bowl of your instant pot and turn on the sauté function.
Wait until it's nice and heated then add meat, browning on all sides. Add the rest of your ingredients, seal the instant pot and select the meat/stew setting (about 35 minutes).
Once cooking is complete, let the instant pot sit for about 12 minutes then release the steam by placing the valve to the venting position.
To make in your slow cooker: Add cubed beef (except the oil) along with the rest of ingredients, cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours.
To make on your stove top: In a large dutch oven or pot on medium high heat, drizzle oil and sear meat on all sides.
Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for about 2 to 3 hours, until meat is tender. Serve and enjoy!
