There a many different types of beef you can use with this recipe. Chuck, bottom round, beef ribs, beef shanks, chuck tender will all work very well. The best part of this recipe is that it takes only an hour in the Instant Pot as apposed to 4-6 hours in a slow cooker. If you don’t have a pressure cooker, you can definitely make this in a slow cooker on high for 4-6 hours or in your oven at 275 for 4 hours. Either way you cook it will be delicious.
