Crockpot Beef tips
1 packet Au Jus Gravy
1 packet Lipton Onion Soup mix
1 packet ranch mix
Stew meat
1 stick butter
Place stew meat in crock pot.
Pour Au Jus, Lipton onion soup mix and ranch packet over the meat. Place stick of butter on top and cover. Cook in crockpot on low, 4-6 hours.
We serve over mashed potatoes.
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds stew meat, cubed
- 1 packet Au Jus Gravy mix
- 1 packet Lipton Onion Soup mix
- 1 packet Ranch seasoning mix
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground (optional, for seasoning)
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
- Mashed potatoes, for serving
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Crockpot:
- Place the cubed stew meat at the bottom of the Crockpot.
2. Add the Flavorful Mix:
- Sprinkle the Au Jus Gravy mix, Lipton Onion Soup mix, and Ranch seasoning mix over the stew meat.
3. Add Butter and Beef Broth:
- Place the stick of butter on top of the seasoning mix.
- Pour in the beef broth. The broth will help create a rich, flavorful sauce.
4. Season (Optional):
- Add black pepper for an extra hint of spice if desired. Remember, the packaged mixes contain salt, so taste before adding more salt.
5. Cook Low and Slow:
- Cover the Crockpot and cook the beef tips on low for 4-6 hours. Cooking on low ensures the meat becomes tender and flavorful as it slowly simmers in the seasonings and butter.
6. Stir and Garnish:
- About halfway through the cooking time, gently stir the beef tips to ensure they are evenly coated with the sauce. This will help the flavors meld together.
7. Serve:
- Once the beef tips are tender and cooked to perfection, serve them hot over a bed of creamy mashed potatoes.
8. Garnish and Enjoy:
- Garnish the beef tips with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
- Serve immediately, allowing the rich, savory sauce to soak into the mashed potatoes.
Note: Feel free to customize the recipe by adding vegetables like carrots and peas to make it a complete meal. Additionally, you can adjust the seasoning according to your taste preferences. Enjoy your delicious and hearty Crockpot Savory Beef Tips!
