Stupid Stew. In the style of Dixie.

Here is a stew that is so simple that it's appropriately named stupid stew. It's actually delicious and works equally well in a pressure cooker, slow cooker (aka: crockpot), or Dutch oven/pot.

Ingredients.
White onions. A pile of them. If using a pressure cooker, you almost can't use to many. 
1 pound of stew meat (mystery meat).
2 pounds of cheap beef rib strip meat. 
2 shots of Jack Daniels whiskey. 
1 pound of baby carrots. 
2 pounds of baby potatoes. 
1 pound of mushrooms. Sliced works best. 
3 stalks of diced celery. 
1 quart of beef broth. 
Garlic salt to taste.
Salt to taste.
Black & White pepper to taste. 
Cornstarch (for thickening) if desired.  

The above is excellent as is. However you can add or take away anything that you like. 

Directions. 
Cut the rib meat into small chunks. Brown both the stew meat and the rib meat along with a few onions together. 
Once browned, throw everything (except the cornstarch) into a pot or whatever you want to cook it in. 
Cook until tender. Pretty simple and straightforward. Once everything is cooked, you can stir in cornstarch to thicken it up if you wish. The more you add, the thicker it will get. 

Tips:
The beef rib strip meat really adds a ton of flavor. Use it. 
If pressure cooking, give the meat a 10 minute head start before adding the vegetables or the vegetables will be over cooked and mushy. This is for a 12 PSI setting. If cooking at 15 PSI, give the meat a 8 minute head start.
