Instructions
Cook bacon until crispy in the pressure cooker. Remove and set aside.
Add kielbasa and brown in bacon drippings. Remove and set aside.
Add ground beef, onion, and garlic. Cook until beef is browned.
Sprinkle flour, salt, pepper, and chili powder over meat. Stir and cook for 1 minute.
Add diced tomatoes, beans, green chilies, corn, potatoes, bacon, sausage, and water.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 60 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Garnish with parsley before serving.
For thicker stew, make a slurry and simmer on sauté setting for a few minutes after cooking completes.
Let pressure release naturally for best texture before opening the lid.
Notes
This cowboy stew gets better the next day. Store in fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for longer storage. Reheat gently to avoid drying out.
