How do I Make Rice in the Instant Pot?
When you are making rice in the Instant Pot, there is a rice setting. This is the correct setting for one kind of rice, but only for white or parboiled rice. When you are making long grain brown rice like in this recipe, you do not want to use this setting. When you are cooking the long grain brown rice in this recipe, you want to cook the rice on manual high pressure for 22 to 25 minutes. This can change, also, depending on the high elevation. This is according to the Instant Pot website.

How to Make Instant Pot Beef Tips and Rice
When making this easy recipe, you want to start with this simple marinade.
Combine the soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce with oil, honey, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, fresh ginger, and red pepper flakes in a glass jar. Add salt and pepper and shake to combine.
Place the marinade into a plastic bag and then add the beef.
Seal the bag and turn the bags around to cover all of the beef.
Marinate the beef for 30 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate it overnight. Turn the bag occasionally to keep the marinade evenly distributed.
When the beef is ready to be cooked, add 2 tablespoons of oil to the Instant Pot and turn on the saute setting on high. Once the pot is hot, add the beef to the pot and discard the extra marinade. Brown the meat on all sides, for about 4 minutes. Add the beef broth and deglaze the bottom of the pan, scraping the browned bits off the bottom.
Turn off the Instant Pot and add the brown rice. Add more salt and pepper to taste. Secure the Instant Pot lid and make sure it is set to sealing. Set the time for 20 minutes for a harder rice or 22 minutes for softer rice.
When cook time is done, do a natural release for 10 to 15 minutes, and then do a quick release for any remaining pressure.
Carefully remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork. Taste and adjust seasonings to your tastes. Transfer the beef tips and rice to a platter and sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired. Serve immediately with your favorite sides. Enjoy!
