The Instant Pot or electric pressure cooker has fast become one of my most favorite kitchen appliances. As I keep trying out new recipes, I fall more and more in love with this thing.

Anytime I need a quick meal, I put on my thinking cap and get to recipe testing. Just like with these beef tips! Normally, I cook these in the slow cooker all day to get nice tender sirloin beef tips.

Making it this way this meal is ready in under an hour and is just as tender (if not more). It’s such a great way to get a meal on the table for the family fast. This is why I love it friends!

If you do not have an Instant Pot add it to you list for Santa! If he needs some help ordering for I have a added a link HERE ;). You can always put these in the Crock Pot on low for 8 hours or high for 4 and get great results too!

I love to alternate serving this with rice, mashed potatoes or possibly egg noodles to change it up a bit. So pick what your family loves and everyone stays happy!

What you need to make Instant Pot Beef Tips

  • Sirloin Beef (Cut into chunks)
  • Olive oil
  • Onion
  • Flour
  • Garlic Salt
  • Pepper
  • Red Wine
  • Beef Broth
  • Cream of Mushroom Soup

Easy Steps to Making Delicious Pressure Cooked Beef Tips in the Instant Pot

Step 1.   Season sirloin beef tips with garlic salt, pepper and dust or coat with flour ( I do this on a paper plate).

Step 2.   Set the IP to saute feature and let it get hot. Add oil. Place in the sirloin beef tips and saute until browned. This can be done in two batches to not overcrowd the pot. Remove to plate.

Step 3.   Add in the onion and saute about 1 minute.

Step 4.   Then add in the wine and beef broth (At this point scrape off any brown bits or flour off the bottom of the pan). Return the Beef Tips back into the Instant Pot. Give a stir. Next add the cream of mushroom on top.

Step 5.   Close the lid and make sure the pressure valve is closed. Use the Manual setting on High Pressure for 25 minutes. It will take about 10 or so minutes to come up to pressure and start cooking.

I know this looks like a great big mess now, but just wait for the deliciousness!

Step 6.   Once done let it release naturally. This took about 20 minutes. This allows it to sit and get so nice and tender.

Note: If the gravy isn’t as thick as you like take about 1/4 cup of water and add in 2  tablespoons of cornstarch and mix up really good. Set the pot to saute and pour in cornstarch slurry and stir. Let it heat for a few minutes and you are all set!

Ingredients 

  • 2 pounds sirloin beef tips
  • 2 to 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp flour
  • ½ tbsp garlic salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ cup onions, diced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • ½ cup red wine, (sub more beef broth if you prefer not to use wine)
  • 1 10.5 ounce can cream of mushroom soup

Instructions

  • Season sirloin beef tips with garlic salt, pepper and dust or coat with flour (I do this on a paper plate).
  • Set the IP to saute feature and let it get hot. Add oil. Place in the sirloin beef tips and saute until browned. This can be done in two batches to not overcrowd the pot. Remove to plate.
  • Add in the onion and saute about 1 minute.
  • Then add in the wine and beef broth (At this point scrape off any brown bits or flour off the bottom of the pan). Then add the Beef Tips and juices back into the Instant Pot. Give it a stir. Next add the cream of mushroom on top.  
  • Close the lid and make sure the pressure valve is closed. Use the Manual setting on High Pressure for 25 minutes. It will take about 10 or so minutes to come to pressure.
  • Once done let pressure naturally release for 20 minutes. You can then manually release by opening the valve to let remaining pressure release.

Notes

If gravy is not as thick as you desire, in a bowl or measuring cup whisk 1/4 cup water with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch until well mixed. Pour into Instant Pot and stir. Set to warm or saute and let cook a few minutes until thickened.
*Make sure to deglaze the bottom of the pan by scraping those brown bits or anything stuck to the bottom when you add in the wine and beef broth. This will preventing it from burning the bottom. And get all that flavor into the broth.
SLOW COOKER RECIPE:  This recipe can also be made in a slow cooker. Complete browning in a skillet and pour into slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.

  1. Would cream of chicken soup or one of the jars of gravy stuff work instead of cream of mushroom? My husband is allergic to mushrooms but this looks so delicious!!

  2. This looks really good. I was wondering at what elevation you are at. I live at 7600 feet so need to know how to adjust timing in relation to where you are.

    Thanks!

    These beef tips are amazing! It is a good thing they don’t take too long to cook in the instant pot because the smell makes your mouth water! Can’t wait to try some of the other instant pot recipes here!

      1. I am unsure what happened. I have never had mine burn and I make this often. I am so sorry that happened. Most of the time it’s not enough liquid but the amount I add is usually plenty!

      2. I know what happened because after I browned the meat I put the lid on the instant pot and just left it on saute. After a few minutes it said “HOT”. I then realized that I needed to set it to MANUAL and set the time.

      3. You probably had a layer of flour cooked on the bottom of the pan. After searing the meat you need to deglaze with broth to remove any bits and break up all the yummyness stuck to the bottom.

    I”ve been working on something similar for dinner. I”ll just make your recipe! I looks so delicious and perfect for any night.

  5. This looks delicious. I need to make more use of my instant pot – need to start with this recipe. My husband would LOVE this!

  6. I’m still learning the “Instant Pot” think and think this would be a great recipe to try with my family.

  7. What a delicious looking dinner. I have been having having fun experimenting with my IP and I can;t wait to try this!

  8. hi, looking up beef tip recipes and came across this! really want to try it…but how would i adjust if the tips were frozen? Thanks!

    -Terri

    1. Terri, I have not tried doing this with frozen tips. I would go ahead and follow the instructions. Then test for tenderness and cook another 5 minutes if needed. I am still experimenting with my IP and haven’t used frozen meats. I hear it works well. You wouldn’t be able to use the flour and sear them. But the cornstarch at the end should still thicken for a gravy.

      Please let me know how it works out!

    This turned out great, and was easy and quick in the pressure cooker! Thanks! I might add green peppers to it next time. Thanks for a great easy recipe for someone that doesn’t cook, so anything that turns out YUMMY is awesome!!

    1. You can use any thing you like to go with it. I haven’t tried cooking the noodles with the beef, it probably would need to be added later. Noodles just take about 4 minutes to cook! Let me know if you try it!

    2. I make frozen chicken breasts, egg noodles five cups water, and all the trimmings to make chicken and noodles.
      Amazing, but it all comes out perfectly.

    So I received an Instant Pot for. Christmas but just got brave enough to try it out. The beef tips were the first recipe I tried. I thought about it after I locked the lid that maybe it wasnt a great idea due to the cost of the meat but…I can’t thank you enough. My family absolutely loved this dish. My son said it is his new favorite. This is a must try and added to the regular rotation.

    1. Thank you so much Dawn! That just makes my day! The cost of food still shocks me each time I go to the grocery store. I love to stock up at Sams and refreeze in smaller portions. Also Publix here has BOGO chuck roasts from time to time. I will cut those up as well for this dish when I get those great buys! My son loves this one as well and its really easy to make and such a treat. In fact I am making it again tonight for our family meal. Many Blessings, Nikki

    Hi Nikki,
    Just made the Beef Tips for dinner. They were delicious! They didn’t quite look like yours but that didn’t matter. My husband told me that I could make that every night & he would lick the plate every night! Thanks for sharing your recipe.

    Trish

    1. Trish,

      I am so glad you and your hubby enjoyed them. That licking the plate is the best compliment you can give a cook! I find every time I cook something it looks different.I appreciate you stopping by and I hope you come back soon and chat with me! I love hearing from Soulfully Made friends!

      Gratefully,

      Nikki

      Yes! Plate-lickin’ good. Made this last night and it was EASY and so delicious. Thank you, Nikki!

      1. Marisa you have made my entire weekend! Now that is the best compliment ever! I am thrilled you enjoyed it. I have been in a mess at my house with some remodeling due to a little A/C flood, so I have been cooking in my Instant Pot a lot lately and am adding new recipes all the time. Hope you come check them out.

    1. It is a brand of an electric pressure cooker. Any brand of pressure cooker will work. You can find links in the blog post to one on instant pot if you would like to take peek! You can also make this in a slow cooker or on the stove top, if you do not have one. Slow cooker on low for 8 hours or high for 4 to 5 hours. Thank you so much for coming by! I hope you come back again!

      1. What can be used as a substitute for the cream of mushroom soup? My husband hates mushrooms. Also, is there a way to cook either white rice or egg noodles in the instant pot with the beef?

      2. I have replaced cream of mushroom with cream of chicken in many dishes and it is delicious! However, my husband hates mushrooms too and he still loves this recipe. I have not tried cooking them together in the instant pot at the same time. It takes far less time for the pasta or rice in the Instant Pot.

  12. What do you suggest as a substitute for wine?
    I got an instant pot at a garage sale recently, and I’m anxious to use. It’s been years since I had pressure cooker.
    Thanks for your help.
