Directions
Braised beef is when this method of cooking is applied to a beef roast.
What is Braising
- Braising, also known as pot roasting, involves slowly cooking meat in a covered pot with some sort of liquid. Such as broth or wine. This process typically takes several hours.
Slow cooker braised beef
This braised beef in red wine can easily be modified to make in a slow cooker if you want to make it in advance and walk away.
- Once you’ve browned the beef chunks and sauteed the onion, place the beef, onion, garlic, and spices into your slow cooker.
- Then add the red wine and water, then cover and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours.
Instant pot braised beef
Just like slow cooker braised beef, this can be made in an instant pot as well if you’re in a hurry!
place the browned beef chunks, sauteed onion, spices, pressed garlic, water, and red wine into the instant pot and cook and pressure cook on high for 40 minutes.
