Scale
Beef and Potatoes
- 2 pounds beef stew meat
- 1 1/2 pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes
Seasonings and Butter
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons seasoned salt
- 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
- 5 tablespoons butter, cut into 1 tablespoon pads
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Place the beef stew meat into one half of the slow cooker and the baby Yukon gold potatoes into the other half, keeping them separated for even seasoning.
- Season: Evenly sprinkle the onion powder, garlic powder, and seasoned salt over both the beef and potatoes. Carefully toss only the beef side to ensure all meat pieces are well seasoned without mixing with the potatoes.
- Add Garlic and Butter: Sprinkle the chopped garlic evenly over the beef and potatoes, then place the pads of butter evenly on top of everything.
- Cook: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 6 hours, or until the beef is tender and fully cooked through.
- Serve: Spoon the beef and potatoes onto plates, drizzle with the cooking juices from the bottom of the slow cooker for added flavor, and enjoy your hearty meal!
Notes
- For a faster cook time, use cubed sirloin steak instead of beef stew meat and cook on high for 4 hours.
- Be careful when tossing the beef to keep it separate from the potatoes for the best flavor distribution.
- Serving with a side of steamed green vegetables or a simple salad complements this rich dish well.
- This recipe can be doubled or halved depending on your slow cooker size and serving needs.
