Meat
Vegetables
- 1½ pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes
- 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
Seasonings
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons seasoned salt
Others
- 5 tablespoons butter, cut into pads
- Prepare Ingredients: Place the beef stew meat on one half of the crockpot and arrange the baby Yukon gold potatoes on the other half to keep them separate.
- Season Evenly: Sprinkle onion powder, garlic powder, and seasoned salt evenly over both the beef and potatoes to flavor both components well.
- Toss the Beef: Gently toss the beef to coat it evenly in the seasoning while keeping it separate from the potatoes for even cooking.
- Add Garlic: Spread the chopped garlic on top of both the meat and potatoes, enhancing the garlic flavor throughout the dish.
- Add Butter Pads: Place the 5 tablespoons of butter evenly over the entire dish for richness and to create a buttery sauce as it cooks.
- Cook Low and Slow: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6 hours to allow the beef to become tender and the potatoes to cook through.
- Finish and Serve: Once cooking is complete, spoon the garlic butter sauce from the bottom of the crockpot over the beef and potatoes, then serve hot and enjoy.
Notes
- Keep the beef and potatoes separated in the crockpot to ensure even cooking and prevent the potatoes from becoming mushy.
- Use baby Yukon gold potatoes for their buttery texture and ability to hold shape when slow-cooked.
- Adding butter pads throughout the dish melts into a rich garlic butter sauce that enhances flavor.
- If preferred, substitute seasoned salt with a mixture of salt, paprika, and herbs for customized seasoning.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
