Description

Slow Cooker Garlic Butter Beef Bites is a hearty and comforting dish featuring tender beef stew meat and baby Yukon gold potatoes cooked together in a slow cooker with a flavorful blend of garlic, onion powder, and seasoned salt.

Ingredients

Scale

Beef and Potatoes

  • 2 pounds beef stew meat
  • 1 1/2 pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes

Seasonings and Flavorings

  • 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

  1. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Place the beef stew meat in one half of the slow cooker and the baby Yukon gold potatoes in the other half, keeping them separate for even cooking.
  2. Season the Ingredients: Evenly sprinkle the onion powder, garlic powder, and seasoned salt over both the beef and potatoes to ensure balanced seasoning.
  3. Toss the Beef: Gently toss the beef stew meat with the seasonings to coat all pieces well, taking care to keep the meat separate from the potatoes.
  4. Add Garlic and Butter: Evenly distribute the chopped garlic over the beef and potatoes, then place the pads of butter on top to melt and infuse the dish with rich flavor during cooking.
  5. Cook Low and Slow: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the beef is tender and cooked through, allowing flavors to meld beautifully.
  6. Serve: Spoon the beef and potatoes onto plates and drizzle with the flavorful sauce collected at the bottom of the slow cooker before serving for a delicious finishing touch.
