Ingredients

Scale

Beef and Potatoes

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

Seasonings

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

Additional Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
  • 5 tablespoons butter, cut into 1 tablespoon pads

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Place the beef stew meat in one half of the slow cooker and the baby Yukon gold potatoes in the other half, keeping them separated.
  2. Season Meat and Potatoes: Evenly sprinkle the onion powder, garlic powder, and seasoned salt over both the beef and potatoes. Carefully toss the beef to ensure all pieces are well seasoned, while keeping it separate from the potatoes as much as possible.
  3. Add Garlic and Butter: Evenly distribute the chopped garlic over the beef and potatoes, then place the butter pads on top.
  4. Slow Cook: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the beef is tender and fully cooked. The potatoes should be soft and flavorful.
  5. Serve: Spoon the sauce from the bottom of the slow cooker over the beef and potatoes before serving to enhance flavor. Enjoy your hearty slow cooker meal!

Notes

  • For best results, use baby Yukon gold potatoes as they hold their shape well and absorb flavors nicely.
  • Do not lift the slow cooker lid during cooking to maintain temperature and moisture.
  • If desired, garnish with fresh parsley or chives for added color and freshness.
  • Adjust seasoning based on personal taste, especially the seasoned salt if watching sodium intake.
  • Can be served with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
