Steps:
- Make the beef: Season the beef with 2 teaspoons of salt.
- Heat the oil in an Instant Pot on "Sauté" mode. Add the beef and sear on all sides, using tongs to turn the meat, 7-9 minutes total. Remove the beef from the Instant Pot and set aside.
- Add the bell pepper, onion, celery, and garlic to the Instant Pot and sauté for 5 minutes, until softened. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato paste, Frank's RedHot® Original Cayenne Pepper Hot Sauce, McCormick Cajun Seasoning, and the remaining teaspoon of salt.
- Return the beef to the Instant Pot and stir well. Put the lid on the Instant Pot, set the pressure valve to "Sealing," and pressure-cook for 50 minutes.
- Turn the pressure valve to "Venting" to release the pressure quickly. (Be sure to read all Instant Pot instructions carefully for safety.) Carefully remove the lid.
- Remove the beef mixture from the Instant Pot and set aside. Clean the Instant Pot insert.
- Make the grits: Generously coat the Instant Pot insert with nonstick spray. Add the butter and melt on "Sauté" mode. Add the grits and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes, until fragrant. Whisk in the milk, water, and salt. Bring mixture to a simmer, then whisk well.
- Put the lid on the Instant Pot, set the pressure valve to "Sealing," and pressure-cook for 10 minutes.
- Let pressure naturally release for 15 minutes, then turn the pressure valve to "Venting" to release the rest of the pressure. Carefully remove the lid.
- Carefully hold the Instant Pot with an oven mitt and use a silicone spatula or wooden spoon to move the grits around and release from the bottom of the pot, then whisk well to incorporate.
- Stir in the cheddar cheese. Let cheese melt for 1 minute, then stir again. (If the grits get too thick before serving, stir in a bit of milk to loosen.)
- To serve, spoon the grits into shallow bowls. Scoop the beef mixture on top. Drizzle with Frank's RedHot® and garnish with the scallions.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Cut the steak into 4 equal-size pieces. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Rub the Cajun seasoning all over the steak. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add the steak; cook until charred in spots, about 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove to a plate.
- Meanwhile, make the grits: Bring 3 1/2 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk in the grits and reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 5 to 6 minutes. Lower the heat and whisk in the cheese, milk and 2 tablespoons butter; season with salt and pepper. Keep warm over low heat.
- In the same skillet you cooked the steak, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper and celery and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and browned, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the vinegar and cook until evaporated, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter.
- Divide the grits among bowls. Slice the steak and place on top of the grits. Top with the vegetable mixture and celery leaves.
