Melt-In-Your-Mouth Beef Tips Recipe – Instant Pot and Crockpot Instructions Included

Are you ready for a melt-in-your-mouth Beef Tips Recipe? Look no further!!!

One of our classic, cold weather, go-to recipes is Beef Tips. They are so versatile as you can serve them over noodles, mashed potatoes or rice.

In fact, they can also be a stand alone protein main dish and be served alongside a salad, broccoli, roasted red potatoes, or anything else that you enjoy.

The best part of this recipe is that the beef actually melts in your mouth. They are so tender and the gravy provides the perfect rich flavor to enhance each and every bite.

If you use your Instant Pot it can be ready in less than an hour from start to finish. However, if you haven’t yet invested in the Instant Pot yet (what are you waiting for??), you can still cook this in your Crockpot and it will be ready for you to devour when you come home from work.

However you choose to prepare the Beef Tips, one thing is for sure, you might want to double the recipe as your family will be begging for more!
