This comforting crockpot recipe features tender garlic butter beef bites paired with baby Yukon gold potatoes. The slow cooking method melds rich butter and aromatic garlic with savory seasoned beef and potatoes, resulting in a hearty and flavorful dish perfect for an easy family dinner.

Ingredients

Beef and Potatoes

  • 2 pounds beef stew meat
  • 1½ pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes

Seasonings

  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons seasoned salt
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped

Butter

  • 5 tablespoons butter, cut into pads

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crockpot: Place the beef stew meat in one half of the crockpot and the baby Yukon gold potatoes in the other half, keeping them separate.
  2. Season the ingredients: Evenly sprinkle the onion powder, garlic powder, and seasoned salt over both the beef and potatoes.
  3. Coat the beef: Gently toss the beef to coat it evenly in the seasonings while keeping it separated from the potatoes to avoid mixing flavors prematurely.
  4. Add garlic: Scatter the chopped garlic on top of both the meat and potatoes to infuse aromatic garlic flavor during cooking.
  5. Top with butter: Distribute the butter pads evenly over the entire surface of the meat and potatoes to add richness and moisture.
  6. Cook low and slow: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6 hours, allowing the beef to become tender and the potatoes to absorb all the flavors.
  7. Serve: Once done, use a spoon to drizzle the flavorful garlic butter sauce from the bottom over the beef and potatoes. Serve hot for a comforting meal.

Notes

  • Do not stir the beef and potatoes together before cooking to maintain texture and flavor separation.
  • Using baby Yukon gold potatoes offers a creamy texture and avoids the need for peeling.
  • You can substitute seasoned salt with salt and your preferred herbs if desired.
  • For a thicker sauce, remove the cooked beef and potatoes before simmering the liquid sauce on the stovetop to reduce.
  • This dish pairs well with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
