Description
A delicious garlic butter beef dish perfect for serving over mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 pounds Sirloin Steak or Chuck Roast (cut into bite-sized cubes)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Kosher Salt (or to taste)
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika (not the hot one)
- 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil (divided)
- 1 large Sweet Onion (thinly sliced)
- 1 cup Low Sodium Beef Broth
- 1 ounce Au Jus Gravy Mix (packet)
- 6 cloves Garlic (pressed)
- 5 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter (sliced)
- Chopped Fresh Parsley
Instructions
- Place the cubed meat into a large bowl and add the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Stir to combine.
- Add 2 Tablespoons of the olive oil and mix to coat all of the meat and further distribute the seasonings.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the remaining 1 Tablespoon of olive oil and as many pieces of the meat that will comfortably fit. It’s okay if they touch a bit.
- Brown the meat in batches, flipping once to brown two sides, and add to the slow cooker.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until they have a little color and just start to soften (about 5 minutes). Add a little more oil, if needed.
- Add the onion to the crockpot and mix the beef and onion together.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the beef broth and au jus mix.
- Press the garlic into the broth mixture and stir. Then pour it over the meat and onion and stir.
- Place the sliced butter over the top of the meat.
- Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Stir every 60 minutes or so to allow all the meat a chance to braise in the garlic butter sauce.
- Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or even pasta, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Notes
- Try to use a good quality broth for richer flavor.
- You can adjust the cooking time based on your slow cooker.
- Make sure to brown the meat properly for the best taste.
