Instant Pot Frozen Steak
It just so happens that is a coincidence, that todays instant pot frozen steak recipe, is published on what would have been my grandad's birthday.
My youngest son Jorge is named after him, he was a wonderful grandad to me and died when I was 11 years old. He was my first ever influence when it came to food.
Specifically eating delicious frugal food. He introduced me to black pudding, liver and onion and many other foods that you would associate with cheap healthy dinners.
I would imagine if he was cooking today, that he would be obsessed with the instant pot.
He would love how he could put cheap cuts of meat into the electric pressure cooker and how it would come out perfectly every time.
Today's instant pot frozen steak is a key example of this. You can use expensive steak, you can cheap steak, you can use cubed steak, the choice is yours.
But what you can achieve is something so delicious you will think that you are dreaming.
Why Cook Frozen Steak In Pressure Cooker?
Instant pot users, Mealthy users, Ninja Foodi users, Pressure King Pro users, get ready for the best tasting steak ever.
My husband Dominic worked as a chef for more than a decade. He followed this up by working as a butcher.
He is very skilled and opinionated when it comes to steak and other cuts of meat. One thing he has always hated is meat cooked from frozen.
The fact that frozen meat is not as tender compared to fresh meat. Or that steak should be tenderised prior to being cooked which can't happen if it is cooked from frozen.
However, the day I introduced Dominic to instant pot frozen steak, was the day he changed his opinion.
He said that he had found some instant pot meat that tasted delicious when cooked direct from the freezer.
If you are on the fence about it, then think of it like this. When you eat our instant pot beef pot roast or our instant pot beef stew and dumplings, the braised beef is perfectly cooked.
Braised meat is meant for slow cooking and pressure cooking because it goes from tough to tender, but imagine a cut that is not meant for pressure cooking?
The result is a much tender meat and it is like eating the best steak you have ever tried.
Plus, you can just grab it from the freezer and throw it in the instant pot. What more is there not to love about this.
Can You Instant Pot Frozen Steak?
Absolutely! Just make sure that the packaging is all fully off the frozen steak before you instant pot it and you are all set.
Though I have found that the best results (don't worry I will cover that in more detail later) is when you cook your frozen steak in the instant pot in a gravy and then serve the gravy with your steak.
There are lots of different cuts of instant pot frozen steak that works well including:
- Instant Pot Sirloin Steak From Frozen

That way we can see how they compare. But of course you can use any frozen steak in your instant pot or other pressure cooker.

- It only needs 20 minutes because it doesn't need to cook as long as stewing meat because it is already a tender cut of meat.
- If needs as long as 20 minutes because even though steak will cook in 0 minutes, you want your steak to be tender and flavoursome.

We recommend Butcher Box for the best frozen sirloin steak to cook in the instant pot. They also sell other frozen steak too.
For the best beef stock, we recommend Kettle & Fire. Though you can use your own leftover beef broth or beef stock.
If the frozen steak is submerged in the liquid it will come out more like braising steak. But if you don't submerge the steak it will be like a classic steak cooked in the frying pan and have a more crispy texture.
You can see the image below and how one to the left was not submerged and is crispy, compared to the one on the right that was submerged.
