Ingredients

2 ½ pounds Beef (Stew Meat)
7 Carrots
2 ½ stalks of Celery
½ cup + 1 ½ tablespoons Tomato Juice
1 ¼ Yellow Onion
2 ½ tablespoons Quick-Cooking Tapioca
1 ¼ tablespoons Sugar
2 ½ teaspoons Salt

Directions

Place the stew meat, onion, celery, and carrots in the Instant Pot.
Sprinkle tapioca, salt, and sugar over top, then pour in the tomato juice.
Secure the lid and select the stew/meat setting and cook for 35 minutes on high pressure.
After it’s done, let everything mellow out for about 10 minutes before releasing the steam (this is called a natural release).
Finish with a quick browning session in the oven if desired.
