Instructions
- Sear: Season the beef tips generously with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the beef cubes on all sides. Remove the cubes from the pot and set them aside. Add the butter to the pot, let it melt, then add the onion. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until softened and translucent.
- Mix: Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, then sprinkle the flour into the pot. Stir well and cook for another minute or two. Pour the beef broth into the pot and whisk the mixture well. Then, add the soy sauce, Worcestershire, thyme, bay leaf, and seared beef.
- Cook: Bring the mixture to a boil then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it simmer for 30 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened and the beef is tender. Stir occasionally.
- Finish: Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Taste for salt and pepper, then garnish with parsley and serve.

Notes
- Use paper towels to pat the beef dry to remove any excess moisture before you season it with salt and pepper. This helps to get a better sear on the meat.
- When adding the beef broth to the flour mixture you need to make sure you whisk it well while at the same time scraping the bottom of the pot to loosen up any bits. This is the key to making flavorful gravy.
- Wait until the beef is completely done before you add more salt. As it cooks the gravy will reduce and intensify in flavor. So if you season the dish before the gravy thickens you can easily end up with an oversalted dish.
- For Instant Pot or slow cooker instructions, see above in the post.

- Transfer leftovers to an airtight container and store in the fridge for 3-4 days. You can reheat in the microwave, or reheat on the stovetop.
