STEAK AND INSTANT POT POTATOES

Steak and Instant Pot Potatoes Steak and Instant Pot Potatoes Cook all together in the Instant Pot at the same time! Tender meat tips, fluffy mashed potatoes, and silky smooth gravy tie the whole meal together. This is one dinner the family will love!

After the meat has browned for a few minutes, remove the meat from the Instant Pot.

Deglaze the pot with beef broth. Deglazing means adding liquid to the pot and scraping the bottom so there are no bits of food stuck to the bottom of the pot.

If food sticks to the bottom, the pot burn warning will activate, causing the pot to turn off.

Therefore, deglaze the pot with beef broth. Remember that marinade was kept around? Add 1 teaspoon of the marinade to the broth.
