Slow Cooker Mushroom Steak Bites

A few simple ingredients and just 10 minutes of prep time make these slow cooker mushroom steak bites a big hit! Slow cooked until fall-apart tender, the perfectly seasoned steak tips are soaked in a beef flavored au jus that can just as easily be thickened into a gravy. Serve with egg noodles or mashed potatoes for a comforting meal everyone will love coming home to.

Ingredients

2 pounds stew beef
8 ounces white mushrooms
⅓ cup white onion chopped
6 tablespoons butter sliced
3 cloves garlic minced
¾ cup beef broth
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

In a large skillet over medium high heat add the stew beef and cook until browned. We are not thoroughly cooking the meat, just searing it to lock in flavor.
2 pounds stew beef
To the basin of a 6 quart slow cooker, add the seared beef, mushrooms, onion, butter, garlic, beef broth, salt and pepper.
8 ounces white mushrooms, 1/3 cup white onion, 6 tablespoons butter, 3 cloves garlic, ¾ cup beef broth, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper
Stir to combine.
Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours, or until the beef is tender. Every slow cooker runs differently. Some may need up to 6 hours on LOW. I don't recommend cooking on HIGH.
Serve this as-is or use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked beef and mushrooms to a hot skillet to get some color on them.
Serve!

Notes

Low sodium beef broth can be used.
Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Every slow cooker runs differently. Times given are a general recommendation and should be tested in your own slow cooker and adjusted as needed.
