This recipe comes from a book by blogger Tieghan Gerard: Half Baked Harvest Super Simple- More Than 125 Recipes for Instant, Overnight, Meal-Prepped, and Easy Comfort Foods. This is a brand-new book. I've only had it a few weeks, and this is the first recipe I've tried from the book so far. The book is beautiful. It's one to display prominently on your cookbook shelf. And every recipe is accompanied by a photo. The recipes are creative and different. There are a lot of good ideas for new things to try.
Here are a list of droolworthy things I want to make from this book: Avocado Breakfast Tacos, Coconut Banana Muffins, Cinnamon Roll Bread, Balsamic Peach and Brie Tart, Maple Cinnamon Acorn Squash, Honeycrisp Apple Bourbon Smash Cocktail, Everything Bagel Salad, Creamy Chicken Gnocchi Soup, Sweet and Spicy Pineapple Pizza, Pumpkin and Sage Lasagna, Spaghetti Squash Alfredo, Coconut and Chickpea Curry, Instant Chicken Gumbo, Gingered Apple Pork Chops, Thai Basil Beef, Lobster Tacos, Blondie Brownie Bars and Bourbon Peach Pandowdy. Honestly… there are too many to mention.
How to make Instant Pot Beef Bourguignon:
First, you'll need a pressure cooker. It doesn't have to be an Instant Pot, but that's the one everyone seems to have these days. This recipe is meant to be cooked in the Instant Pot since it only takes one hour to cook. Classic Beef Bourguignon recipes simmer on the stove for many hours. This is a quick and easy version.
Beef chuck cubes are tossed with flour, salt and pepper. Bacon is cooked on the the sauté function on the pressure cooker and then removed to drain. The the beef is added to the pot and sautéed until browned. Onion, garlic, carrots, mushrooms are then added in along with red wine, beef broth, tomato paste, fresh thyme and the cooked bacon. At this point, the pressure cooker is sealed and the meal is cooked on high pressure for 35 minutes.
Once the pressure is released, the sauté function is turned on again until the sauce has thickened slightly. Then it's all ready to be served over your favorite mashed potatoes!
The beef comes out oh-so-tender. Thank goodness for the Instant Pot because without it the beef would need to simmer for a long time on the stove to become that tender. The red wine "gravy" that accompanies the beef and the vegetables is quite delicious. That's why serving it over potatoes is such a great idea. The potatoes get to soak up all of that gravy, and you will love that! Serve it with your favorite wine (or the wine you used in the recipe).
I hope you'll try this meal for your next comfort food meal. It happens to be a good one for a Sunday night dinner. But since you're making it in the pressure cooker, it can be a weeknight meal too. Enjoy!

In a large bowl, combine the beef, flour, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Toss to coat.

Pour in the wine and beef broth, then add the tomato paste, thyme and bacon. Stir to combine. Lock the lid in place, select high pressure, and cook for 35 minutes.

Quick or natural release, then open when the pressure subsides. Remove the thyme sprigs and discard. Using the sauté function, cook until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 10 minutes more.
