Baking Tips

Don't skip searing the beef - it adds incredible depth of flavor

Cut beef into uniform pieces for even cooking

Use baby potatoes for best texture - they hold their shape better

Low and slow cooking ensures the most tender beef

Add fresh herbs at the end to preserve their bright flavor

Save some cooking liquid - it makes an excellent gravy

Let the dish rest 10 minutes before serving for best consistency

For richer flavor, add the cold butter finish just before serving

Leftovers reheat beautifully with a splash of beef broth

1/4 cup beef broth

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

For Finishing:

3 tablespoons butter, cold

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

For Garnish:

Extra fresh herbs

Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

Pat beef cubes dry with paper towels. Season all sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and dried thyme.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear beef cubes in batches, browning all sides, about 6-8 minutes total per batch. Transfer to slow cooker.

Season halved baby potatoes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add to slow cooker with the seared beef.

In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, minced garlic, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, lemon juice, rosemary, oregano, and red pepper flakes if using.

Pour the garlic butter mixture over the beef and potatoes in the slow cooker. Gently toss to coat everything evenly.

Cover and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours, until beef is fork-tender and potatoes are cooked through.

About 30 minutes before serving, check seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper as needed.

Just before serving, stir in cold butter pieces to create a glossy, rich sauce. The residual heat will melt the butter perfectly.

Sprinkle with fresh parsley, chives, and thyme leaves. Gently toss to distribute herbs throughout.

Serve immediately in bowls, spooning the flavorful cooking juices over each serving.

Garnish with additional fresh herbs, Parmesan cheese if desired, and serve with lemon wedges.
