  • Total Time: 6 hours 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4–6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 lbs beef stew meat or chuck roast, cut into bite-sized chunks

  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved or quartered

  • 5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tsp dried thyme

  • 1 tsp dried rosemary

  • 1 tsp onion powder

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • ½ cup beef broth

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

  • Optional: grated Parmesan or lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

  • Make Garlic Butter Mixture
    In a small bowl, combine melted butter, garlic, thyme, rosemary, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well blended.

  • Add to Slow Cooker
    Place beef and potatoes in the slow cooker. Pour the garlic butter over the top and toss gently to coat. Add beef broth.

  • Cook Low and Slow
    Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the beef is fork-tender and the potatoes are soft.

 

  • Serve
    Gently stir everything. Spoon into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley. Optional: add Parmesan or a squeeze of lemon for brightness.

Notes

  • Best cuts: Use chuck roast or stew meat with some marbling for the juiciest beef.

  • Veggie boost: Add carrots or mushrooms in the last 2–3 hours of cooking.

  • Low-carb option: Swap potatoes for cauliflower florets.

  • Want it crispier? Finish under the broiler for 2–3 minutes for golden edges.

 

  • Make it ahead: This meal stores and reheats beautifully—great for leftovers or meal prep.
