  1. I made this tonight, without freezing. I subbed 1 tbsp corn starch for the flour and made a slurry with 1/4 of water #2; it turned out amazing.

  2. Ok silly question it says 1 64oz container but then it says to divide it between containers…also they say that each meal is served 2 times so do I put it in two different containers or is it made all on same day then served again as leftovers?

    1. Those freezer directions are the same as they appear on our documentation. For this recipe if you are doing it as the website says and not as part of membership documents (so 4 servings using 1 lb of beef) then you would only use 1 container. Our system doubles all the recipes. I can see where that would be a little confusing. If you get a free mini menu (link at the bottom of every web page) you will see more clearly what I mean. 🙂

  3. Direction #8: “Measure out reserved cooking liquid from the inner pot and discard the remaining liquid.” Um…how much cooking liquid am I measuring out. Am I missing something?

    1. Hi Debbie, the reserve liquid ingredient is under the serving day ingredients list. For this recipe, it’s 1/4 cup of water. Hope this helps!

  4. Made this tonight – VERY tasty! I couldn’t handle throwing all that beef broth down the drain, and I knew it would be soupy if I kept it AND added the Water #2 mixture – but I did it anyway. 😀 Honestly, next time I’d just put the lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and beef boullion into a small bag or container and freeze that (or just add it to the “cooking day” list of ingredients). Then I would just add that to the broth that you already get cooked with the beef instead of throwing away all that flavour and using flavoured water! LOL I also used a corn starch slurry to thicken it a bit. The sour cream makes it oh-so-dreamy. This recipe is really worth a try if you haven’t already. 🙂
