Did you even know that you could cook ground beef in the Instant Pot?
__________↓↓↓↓↓↓ CLICK FOR RECIPE ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓ ______________
Well now you know! If you are just starting off with your Instant Pot, this is one of the easiest things you can make in your pot! Then just freeze whatever meat you don’t use, and you are set!
The only thing is, I cooked meat that was frozen. That way it was able to stay on the trivet without falling through the cracks and no, I haven’t cooked it with thawed meat yet!

HOW TO COOKE GROUND BEEF IN THE INSTANT POT:
Ingredients:
1 – 3 pounds of ground beef
1 cup of water
Place your trivet in the Instant Pot. Pour in one cup of water. Place your frozen beef on top of the trivet. Put the lid on and turn the knob to sealing.
Push the Manual Button, or pressure cook button and set the time for 25 minutes.
Once the timer is done, let it release on it’s own for 10-15 minutes. Turn the knob to let any more steam out.
Take your meat out of the Instant Pot and place in a bowl. Cut or chop the meat up.
You can freeze the meat in freezer bags for up to 3 months in your freezer.
This is the Taco Soup I made:
– I just threw everything in the Instant pot and cooked it for 5 minutes on manual. I used my already browned beef and just cooked my onions with the rest of the soup instead of browning it.

I did this with frozen ground beef and it was not fully cooked at the end of the 25 minutes, not close. so I’m cooking it for some additional minutes
Ok. Late to the party. Just tried this with fresh 81/19 hamburger meat fresh. 20 minutes high, self release. Dumbed into my kitchenaid to break 5 lbs cooked burger. Fantastic! From 10lbs fresh made up 7 – 1lb ish freezer bags. Awesome. ❤️
I hate the stupid music.
1:55 need liquid to pressurize so try mixing it with the meat like girl did with taco meat
Can you cook this without the trivet?
Two minutes of your videos talking about who you are. Have you put that at the end so we can get to the meat of it quicker? Ha ha
Do you saute after the 25 mins?
You can refreeze after cooking on the instant pot
I've cooked frozen and unfrozen ground beef in the 3 qt. pot and it is inbelievable. Delicious. Not too dry and no grease. I cooked a 1 lb. frozen tube of ground beef from Walgreens in my 3 qt. pot. I gave it at least 40 mins. to cook. That worked well. Another time I just cooked it for 20 mins. and then mixed it in an inner pot with other ingredients for another 20 mins. and that was a tasty treat. (It takes longer to cook in the 3 qt. because it uses less pressure, but I can cook enough for 3 or more meals.)
If you were doing ground turkey do you cook it for less time?? I LOVE your videos!!
What if not frozen
2nd sister? After this hamburger I think you’re the best sister. 😂

I just added the chop and stir to my cart.
OK I’ve done this several times and every time I do it there’s a bunch of fat and cool I don’t know what it sticks to the side of the round thing of beef. What am I doing wrong
I add butter and never drain the grease. Went Keto and in 7 months I am down to 150 lbs from 185 and my body aches are going away. My brain fog is going away also.
My ground beef was frozen in a ball and was rock solid when I put it in the Instant Pot. I pressure cooked for 25 minutes, plus did a 15 min natural release. When I sliced the beef open it was still red and raw inside. I suspect flat frozen ground beef is best for cooking this way. By the way, I love your channel!
This is a game changer. This is great for my teenage daughter that is learning how to cook but can't seem to get a grip on cleaning up the kitchen afterwards. TY, TY, TY.
Waiting for my pressure cooker to arrive and the first thing I'm making is this!
Animal fat is really good for your brain
I have watched this video a few times to see what I’m doing wrong, Please help me tell me why the fat and stuff is not collecting in the bottom and it’s always on top of the meat and this big blob and it’s disgusting thank you
Sad the fat went to waste! Our bodies need good healthy fat, try to find 100% grassfed pasture raised organic ground beef, I like to thaw 1lb pack in the fridge for 24 hours, then add organic grassfed beef tallow into my instantpot, then cook the ground with some Redmond’s fine sea salt.
Have you cooked thawed grounds beef yet in the instant pot?
Thankyou Kristen, tried it wow! What a blessing to be able to do that with ground beef☺
What is cook time per lb. Of frozen ground beef?
Great videos. Your introduction is too long.
Thawed meet would be what time?
1:38 when the video actually starts
Nice, thanks. Beef fat is good, it stops human fat cells from growing fyi.
I would imagine the ground beef turned out boiled, not properly cooked, which happens with high heat and pan.
People here will refuse to eat ground beef that's been cooked and not … I don't know what the english word would be..
ahh thank you! i'm fourteen and wasn't really taught any cooking skills so i want to teach myself 🙂
I love that pink spoon💕, does anyone know where she got it?
Awesome videos 🎉
I don't have the rhing to put in the bottom can I just saute it?
Thanks
U ever answer about different amounts and the time to cook?
This is the first thing I'm trying, browning ground beef. Then I'll make Johnny Marzetti with beef & noodles all in same pot after draining
Ty for ideas I'm trucker and I use everyday
Could you please put on some recipes for a 3 litre Instant Pot. I have bought one for my grandson who is at university and does his own cooking. Thanks
Smart!!
Your the best! Anytime I need help on my insta pot I come here to learn!! Thank you so much ❤️ love you gals
This is amazing
The meat looks dry. You need a little grease in your life.
Could I add a rough chopped frozen onion at the same time? I a trivet that will hold it all out of the water)?
ewww that looked so nasty. i wouldn't eat that if you paid me a million dollars.. blah yuck
My new favorite way to cook ground beef. I’m eating keto/carnivore and I finish with seasoning, cream cheese, maybe some carrots and onions or sometimes I just add a coleslaw veggie pack of shredded cabbage and carrots.
