- 10 oz petite sirloin small cubes, ½ c each onion & celery, 1 c sliced baby carrots, 1 c chopped russet (all these are a guess so added a photo), 4 c beef base broth, 1 T Worcestershire, 1 T balsamic vinegar, big squirt of ketchup. I stabbed the sirloin w/ the knife and used tenderizer then sprinkled on pepper, garlic & onion powder and let sit 15? min. Saute the sirloin in olive oil a bit, removed and sauteed the onions & celery. Deglaze w/ broth. Turn off Saute. Add the rest of broth, W sauce, vinegar & ketchup, quick stir. Add sirloin, carrots & taters. Cook 30 min, 23 min NR, 9 min to pressure. 2:2 ratio slurry, 3:3 might have been better. Sirloin was tender and maybe a bit too much ketchup :)
