Ingredients

• 1 Yellowstone Bunkhouse Braised Beef Stew (frozen)

• Cooking spray or parchment liner (to prevent sticking)

Optional Add-Ons & Extras:

• Cracked black pepper or smoked paprika for extra depth

• Fresh parsley or green onions for garnish

• A dash of Worcestershire sauce or steak sauce for added richness

• Crusty bread or cornbread for serving

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer

Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. This ensures even heating while keeping the beef tender.

Step 2: Prepare the Frozen Meal

1. Remove the meal from the box and plastic film, keeping the food inside its tray.

2. Lightly cover the top with foil to prevent excess moisture loss.

Step 3: Air Fry the Braised Beef Stew

• Place the tray in the air fryer basket and cook at 375°F for 14-16 minutes, stirring halfway through for even heating.

• For a thicker gravy, remove the foil for the last 3-4 minutes of cooking.

• For a crispier potato texture, transfer potatoes to a separate air fryer-safe dish in the last 5 minutes and cook at 400°F.

Step 4: Serve & Enjoy

• Carefully remove the tray from the air fryer and let it cool for 1-2 minutes before eating.

• Serve immediately with crusty bread or cornbread for the ultimate comfort meal.

How to Serve This Braised Beef Stew

• Classic Ranch Style: Serve with warm cornbread or buttered rolls.

• Extra Rich Flavor: Drizzle with Worcestershire sauce or steak sauce.

• Spicy Kick: Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce for some heat.

Pro Tips for Best Results

• Stir halfway through cooking for even heating.

• Cover with foil at the beginning to prevent drying out.

• For a thicker, richer gravy, let the stew rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.

• Want extra protein? Stir in cooked shredded beef or sausage before serving.
