Ingredients

Servings

For the soup:

  • 3 cups beef broth low sodium
  • 1 ounce dark ale see notes above, bottle or can
  • 6 ounce tomato paste canned
  • ¼ cup pesto
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 sweet onion diced small, large
  • 1 bell pepper diced small, large, yellow
  • 1 pound carrot sliced about ¼-1/2-inch thick
  • 1 bay leaf large
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons paprika mild
  • 2 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 2 pounds chuck roast cut into ½-inch pieces, trimmed of excess fat

For finishing:

  • 1 cup Israeli couscous uncooked
  • ¼ cup basil fresh

Instructions

To cook in the Instant Pot:

  1. Combine all ingredients except fresh basil and Israeli couscous in the Instant Pot. Place lid on the Instant Pot, make sure the vent nozzle is in the non-venting position, set to ”pressure cook - high“ and set timer for 20 minutes. Allow the steam to vent for 10 minutes then release steam manually using the valve on top. When pressure is completely released, remove the lid.
  2. While the soup is cooking in the instant pot, bring a medium-size pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Israeli couscous and cook for 8 minutes or until pasta is tender. Drain well and add to soup when finished.
  3. Add fresh chopped basil. Stir to combine. Serve and enjoy!

To make soup in the oven:

  1. Preheat oven to 300˚F. Combine all ingredients except Israeli couscous and fresh basil in a large Dutch oven. Cover and place in the oven for 3 hours or until meat is very tender. When finished, remove from oven and add cooked couscous (see below) and fresh basil. Stir well. Serve and enjoy!
  2. Towards the end of the three hours cooking time, bring a medium-size pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Israeli couscous and cook for 8 minutes or until pasta is tender. Drain well and add to soup with fresh basil when finished. Stir to combine. Serve and enjoy!
