Here's my tip for browning the meat, I (after cutting into cube's) I put them in the microwave for about 90 seconds to 2 minutes, then the meat is already warm to mildly hot, they brown up much easier on the grill, in skillet & in the instant pot.. Thank you for sharing.. I always love the "Bloopers" part in the end of your video's.. I've been cooking since I was very young (Grandma Taught me) now a retired chef.. I enjoy watching you way of doing it, always gives me idea's... Sorry for babbling on... Merry Christmas..
super happy STCG has been doing some nice affordable meals lately. I like the wagu stuff but it's nice to have some recipes that I can afford and try. Everyone knows food prices are a little out of control recently.
Hi Sam, that beef stew looks absolutely delicious...I will have to try that soon. I noticed you're having problems with flies...a little tip get some little organza bags (sold at Michael's or Hobby Lobby) and put whole cloves and crushed pieces of bay leaves, it should help ...flies don't like it. Hang them around the set. Really enjoy watching the program and trying your recipes, thanks!
@@alekay1309 😂🤣😂🤣 i wasn't stoned but it sure did make me think about the Boston Bombers since i was from there and i found myself asking🤔... Why couldn't they have that much trouble with the lids like Sam... Maybe they would have gave up!.🤷🏿♀️and nothing bad would had happened.😒 ok yeah that was weird and way deeper than i meant to go.. probably killed your buzz.. Sorry my bad😏
Good, simple (I can do this) cooking combined with the best kind of humor. Brilliant combination! Also, I really needed an Instant Pot recipe. Thank you!!
I’ve honestly made this way more times now than I care to admit. And of course again tonight. This might be his best recipe. No carbs under, just spoon the stew. It’s perfect
Also - the reason the little silver thing goes down instead of up is because it's a pressure seal indicator. The pressure inside the cooker, pushing outwards, is what pushes the little pin up. You know it's safe to open when the pin goes down because you know there's not enough pressure to push it up. I know nobody asked.
Beat me to the explanation. The Instant Pot seems to be the one kitchen device my spouse is comfortable cooking in, the recipe books out there are effective for those lacking culinary creativity.
Hey Sam!! Love your videos! Please continue your fantastic outdoor cooking episodes. I’m in Texas and use Tempo for bug control. It’s a concentrate you dilute with water in a sprayer. Soak down your patio with the mixture and once it’s dry, it’s kid and pet safe. Bugs GONE!
Today in KC it’s been in the 60’s and drizzling all day long. I had already planned to do this, and it’s in my instant pot right now. I love the father son fly shooting battles! 😂😂
Thank you so much for this recipe. My wife and I made this for dinner today, and it really was amazing. The kind of flavor and warmth that touches the soul. Can't wait for the next one!
The G-damn flies are horrible in Indiana too! It’s almost the end of September and the S.O.B.’s won’t go away! Love you guys, keep cooking great food! Watch you all the time and love my “Between the Buns” book!
Made a version of this last night and it turned out pretty dang good! Replaced the mushrooms with additional carrots, potatoes, and celery and used a red wine rather than vermouth. Just a quick FYI, I increased the ingredients by 50% (3 pounds of meat) and it did fit in the Instapot - barely. I also had to increase the liquid by quite a bit more. Fun recipe, fun show! Thanks Sam!
My wife is NOT a beef stew gal but when I followed this recipe (using a slow cooker) she was wild about it! I made a big batch that covered dinner for two nights and one more in the freezer. It was served in a bowl with French bread on the side on a chilly Boston evening. Luscious is the word! Going to try it again in our newly acquired insta pot. Thank you Sam for making me a better cook. (F U Dinty Moore) ❤️
OMG I made this recipe last night and everyone LOVED it! I just wanted to thank you for making the Insta-Pot less scary to me. We bought ours 5 years ago and this was the first time I actually used it. (hangs head) So, thank you Sam for the wonderful, easy, delicious recipe for me to use it for my first step into cooking with it. We love all of your videos and often watch at least one, if not more, a night. You've gotten me back into the kitchen to make food at home. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you for showing us some Instant Pot recipes. My wife and I got one for Christmas last year and we use it at least once a week for all kinds of recipes. Our favorites are usually stew-like dishes with different ethnic touches. But we also make legumes like lentils and beans, or garbanzo beans puchero! Cheers and love your channel. The humor is much appreciated.
Watched and made your instant pot beef stew yesterday using sirloin. Very good. I added a bay leaf only to it. Ate two small -medium bowls. The vermouth and thyme and soy sauce took it over the top. Made a big pan of cornbread on the side. thx sam
Last week we set 2 high temp records. This week, we're not getting above 70, and by the end of the week we'll be lucky to hit 60. Winter is going to slap us in the face this year.
@@leadedbison1997 exactly...it's been hot in the summer and cold in the winter since forever....I remember 25years ago my grandma had a car that showed the outside temp(fancy for 90s cars)...it was 101 in Virginia
You must be talking about S.L.C. UTAH Cuz that how we roll with temperatures "If you want to see the seasons change every 5 minutes come to S.L. and stick around for 20 minutes. No lie! I hate it but, than again I love it.
i don't have an instant pot, but put all of this in a crockpot around lunchtime. came home from an evening of youth soccer games and this hit the spot! the parsley added at the end makes it extra 👌!
Fall comfort food at its finest! Well, it's Fall in the Northeast, but 85 in San Diego is still a bit hot. I agree with you, Sam, in that I hate cooking outdoors with the flies. BTW...where can I get one of those garlic presses? As always, great cook and Thank You!
annnnnd it's 97°F here in Central Texas as I'm watching this. However, I also cooked beef stew 3 days ago. Had to do it, just bcuz it's time. The weather will have to catch up to ME this time!!
The pin you can see has a groove at the top and is solid on the bottom. When it isn’t pressurized, a second spring pin (sits horizontally and moves in and out with the turning of the lid) is able to compress and allows the lid to turn. Once pressurized, the pin you can see is sticking out and the increased diameter (because the lower part of the pin doesn’t have a groove) prevents the horizontal pin from compressing.
I just tried this one, it's very good. I normally don't like making braised beef dishes because it takes all day. The pressure cooker is perfect for this. One thing though, you might get a burn notice or "add water" depending on the pressure cooker you have. There's way less liquid in this than what you'd typically put into a stew. If you just wait a few minutes and try again, usually everything will be okay. Water will come out of all the ingredients which will solve what the pressure cooker is complaining about.
Lewis so cute 🥰 the steam is holding the silver button up and thus drops after the steam is released. I love my insta pot! A good fast flavor filled meal.
This is basically an Irish stew. We make this in a slow cooker. Basically same instructions but leave it on low and cook for 4-6 hours. Slow cooker consumes very little electricity. We have a side of very buttery mashed potato. Absolute go to on a cold Irish winters day.
I just made this . . . well, my version of this, and it's delicious! I added some red, orange, and yellow bell peppers, a few jalapenos. two types of mushroom (baby bella and oyster), chipotle chili powder, and smoked paprika. So a little bit spicy take on beef stew but fantastic! I forgot to coat the meat with flour before searing, but I think it turned out fine served over a bed of rice. Not too hard to make also.
my wife and I made this tonight and it was... decadent. Seriously, to die for. The flavor was perfect - the meat, carrots, and potato were all melt in your mouth. There was just enough liquid to glaze everything... seriously fantastic!
Looked great Sam! Why can’t you screen off the outdoor kitchen with a mesh box? You’re under cover. Leave a UV Zapper running before filming and then fly free! 😊
I make beef stew in the insta-pot all the time. The one thing I would suggest to do at the end is add a package of frozen peas. They will cook in the hot stew without getting mushy.
How is this show not the best cooking show that ever was? Food cooking in the foreground with Max and Sam blasting flies with salt guns in the background makes for five-star TV. Brilliant!
Made this last night - first time using an Instant Pot. I'm blown away by this thing. Not sure where I've been all this time but I'm happy to have one now. Stew of this quality would have taken 3-4 hours normally. I followed your recipe except bumped it up probably another 50% or so (I have a 7.5 qt pot), and deglazed with sherry, brandy, and red wine. Also used a little bouquet of fresh thyme, rosemary, and sage and added a splash of fish sauce. Home run.
I made this last night and have to agree it is amazing. I increased the beef broth to 1 cup, added a zucchini, and a 14oz can of chopped tomatoes. As the recipe calls for, stir well to get the liquid to the bottom of the pot. Otherwise your IP will shut off and give you the "burn" display. I used Russet potatoes which broke down enough that I didn't need any corn starch. I also deglazed with red wine since I didn't have any vermouth. Will start making this on a regular basis.
"Wide egg noodles is the way to go" So glad you said that. I have about 10 lbs of those wide egg noodles to use, and I've been looking for something else to use on them.
The bickering between Sam and Max is always great, but there something hilarious about them being unironically mad at each other then having to awkwardly continue on with the video
I always keep my Bug A Salt / With Lazer handy whenever I Grille.... Once this summer I took out 10 flys... Perfect Birthday Gift for the out of doors cook... Last time I used my Instant Pot ( a few weeks ago) I cooked Venison Roast...... Turned out pretty good.
I was introduced to your channel with your Thanksgiving turkey video in your kitchen. I find less visually appealing than the patio but more relatable.
Beef stew like this is so easy and so comforting and tasty. Get a slow cooking pot, chuck it all in in the morning, put it on low and come back end of the day with your dinner ready. Soak up the gravy with some fresh crusty bread , yummy
Hi sam great recipe more instant pot recipes please tryed all your ramen dishes the other and they blew my grandkids away now have allways got to have them in lol
i've done beef stew in my instant pot. - 90 minutes. Flour and brown beef, then add the raw veggies adn beef broth, set pressure cooker for 60 minutes. PERFECT!
I used my Instant Pot for the first time last night. It had been in storage for about 4 years. This recipe coupled with an intro to the tool from another RU-vidr really demystified the device and the device’s potential. The stew was an instant hit! (No pun intended)
Usually I don’t like beef stew. (A childhood thing) . However I loved your video. As a regular but recent viewer of your “cookcast”! Yeah I made up that word. Anyway back on topic. Thanks to you I might try your recipe as entertaining as it was ( as you always are) you have inflicted me with knowledge that I may now use to change my ancient ways and try a stew of my own. Thank you Sam
