Ingredients

Scale

Steak and Main Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chuck roast or sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Variations

  • Red pepper flakes or cayenne, to taste (for spicy kick)
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms (for mushroom lover’s edition)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme or rosemary, chopped (for herb infusion)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Steak: Cut your chosen steak into bite-sized pieces, trimming excess fat for a leaner, easy-to-eat texture.
  2. Sauté Garlic and Butter: In a skillet, melt butter and gently sauté minced garlic until fragrant but not browned, enhancing the sauce’s flavor.
  3. Combine Ingredients in Crockpot: Place the steak bites in the crockpot, pour in the garlic butter mixture, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir gently to coat everything evenly.
  4. Slow Cook: Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the steak to become tender yet juicy.
  5. Finish and Garnish: Once cooked, taste and adjust seasoning. Sprinkle with fresh parsley just before serving to add brightness to the dish.

Notes

  • Choose tender cuts like sirloin or chuck for the best texture in slow cooking.
  • Cooking garlic in butter first intensifies the flavor and aroma dramatically.
  • Cooking on low heat maximizes tenderness while preventing the steak from drying out.
  • Use freshly minced garlic rather than powdered or jarred for best flavor.
  • Let the steak bites rest a few minutes after cooking to soak up the juices.
