  5. On the instant pot, hit the ‘beef/stew’ button and let cook for 60-70 minutes depending on the thickness of the meat (mine took exactly 65 minutes).
  6. Allow the pressure to release naturally or turn to the ‘vent’ setting if you’re impatient like me. Allow it to vent completely before attempting to remove the lid.
