“Tried this in the instapot w 2 lbs of frozen ground beef and it was Amazing! I browned the meat on a pan best I could and added all the ingredients except the heavy cream. 20 min on high and the sauce was heavenly! Thanks for the simple ingredients!!! It's on ” — a cook
“I don't suppose anyone knows good substitutions for the dairy for the kosher among us? I could obviously use smaltz instead of butter (or even add some chicken skin in with the wine so that it renders right into the meat), but the cream is a tough challenge.” — a cook
