Step 1

Press sauté on the Instant Pot. Once it says HOT heat up the avocado oil and add the beef and sprinkle with Montreal Steak spice.

Step 2

Sear the beef cubes on all sides for about 5 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon.

Step 3

Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5 minutes then followed by the carrots, celery, and chopped garlic. Add the tomato paste after that and give everything a good stir!

Step 4

At this point, you’ve built the base of your soup and so many of the flavors are coming together. All you need to do is add in the barley, sauerkraut, broth, bay leaves, and rosemary and stir!

Step 5

Close the lid, press the meat/stew button, and pressure cook for 20-25 minutes. Allow it to naturally release for 15 minutes.

Step 6

Once the pin drops, open the lid and stir once more. Garnish beef and Barley soup with some chopped herbs like dill and serve with a loaf of the best homemade no knead bread recipe.
