Description

Tender garlic butter beef bites cooked low and slow in a crockpot alongside flavorful baby Yukon gold potatoes, infused with aromatic spices and topped with rich butter pads for a comforting and hearty meal.


Ingredients

Scale

Meat

  • 2 pounds beef stew meat

Vegetables

  • pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped

Seasonings

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

Fats

  • 5 tablespoons butter, cut into pads

Instructions

  1. Arrange ingredients: Place the beef stew meat in one half of the crockpot and the baby Yukon gold potatoes on the other half, keeping them separate.
  2. Season evenly: Sprinkle onion powder, garlic powder, and seasoned salt evenly over both the beef and potatoes.
  3. Toss beef: Gently toss the beef to coat it evenly with the seasoning, ensuring it remains separated from the potatoes.
  4. Add garlic: Scatter the chopped garlic on top of both the meat and potatoes for infused flavor.
  5. Distribute butter: Place the butter pads evenly over the entire dish, covering both beef and potatoes.
  6. Cook low and slow: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6 hours to allow flavors to meld and meat to become tender.
  7. Spoon sauce: Once cooking is complete, spoon the garlic butter sauce from the bottom over the beef and potatoes for extra richness.
  8. Serve and enjoy: Serve the garlic butter beef bites with potatoes hot and enjoy a deliciously savory meal.

Notes

  • To enhance flavor, allow the dish to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
  • Baby Yukon gold potatoes work best due to their creamy texture and even cooking.
  • If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
  • This recipe is ideal for meal prep as leftovers reheat well.
