What Type Of Beef To Use

I like to keep things simple so I used beef stew meat. Of course, you can always buy a piece of meat and cut it up yourself. If you go this route, suggestions for cuts of meat include beef sirloin or a roast like chuck roast, rump roast, or even brisket.

Storing Leftovers

If you have leftover surf & turf soup, you can store or freeze it for later use. Store leftover soup an air-tight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. To freeze leftover surf & turf soup, let the soup cool completely. Once cooled, add the soup to an air tight container, freezer-friendly plastic bag, or souper cubes. Store the soup in your freezer for up to 2 months. To reheat frozen surf & turf soup you have two options. You can either thaw the soup overnight  in the refrigerator OR add the soup directly to the slow cooker or Instant Pot & thaw on the warm setting.

FAQs & Tips

  • Don’t like shrimp? Substitute another seafood like crab, scallops, or even fish. 
  • To make this paleo & Whole30 compatible, substitute coconut aminos for the Worcestershire sauce.
  • To make this low-carb & keto friendly, omit the potatoes. 
  • I used a 6-quart slow cooker or Instant Pot.
