Bite-sized beef and halved baby potatoes cooked in a buttery garlic sauce, perfect for a cozy, comforting dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds beef stew meat, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, for searing

Instructions

  1. Gather your ingredients and trim the beef. Cut the stew meat into 1- to 1.5-inch bite-sized pieces.
  2. Halve the baby potatoes so they cook evenly. Optionally parboil the potatoes for 4 to 6 minutes to shave cooking time.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and let it shimmer.
  4. Pat the beef pieces dry with paper towels. Sear in batches until well-browned on all sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer seared beef to the slow cooker.
  5. Whisk together melted butter, minced garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
  6. Place the halved potatoes into the slow cooker around and under the beef. Pour the garlic butter sauce over everything and add the beef broth.
  7. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the beef is fork-tender and potatoes are soft.
  8. Let the slow cooker sit uncovered for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Serve over mashed potatoes or buttered egg noodles. Store leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
