What are Boneless Beef Short Ribs?

Short ribs have lots of meats on them and they are the most popular cut for BBQ and also taste good for stew.

Boneless short ribs are cut from the chuck or plate, and consist of rib meat separated from the bone, which helps makes it perfect for this stew recipe: Instant Pot Boneless Beef Short Ribs.

Boneless beef short ribs are larger and meatier than pork spare ribs. As an alternative, chuck roast is the best substitute when boneless short ribs are unavailable.

Instructions

Brown the Boneless Beef Short Ribs:

• Season boneless short ribs with 1 ½ teaspoons salt.
• Turn on the instant pot and set to "Sauté" and adjust to more high heat. When Instant Pot reaches the given working temperature, it displays “Hot” and you can start sautéing.
• Add vegetable oil and heat until it shimmers. Working in batches, add boneless beef short ribs and cook for about 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Remove from instant pot and set aside.

Deglazing:

• Add dry red wine to the instant pot. Stir and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the instant pot. Bring the red wine to a boil and until it is reduced by 1/3 for about 1 minute.

Pressure Cooking:

• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. 

  Set the instant pot to "manual" and cook at high pressure for about 30 minutes. When cooking is complete, use a natural release to depressurize.

Pressure Cooking the Carrots:

• Add chopped carrots to pot and cook at high pressure for 2 minutes. When cooking is complete, use a quick release to depressurize.

To Thicken the Sauce:

• In a small bowl, mix in 2 tablespoons of water with 1 tablespoon flour. Set the instant pot to "sauté", add the flour mixture and let stew simmer until thickened. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

Serving:
