Crock Pot Beef Tips
Report
Slow Cooker Beef Tips and Gravy (with no “cream soup!” ) is is wonderfully tender, richly satisfying, comforting and flavorful and the perfect make ahead meal for busy weeknights! I also love serving these Beef Tips Recipe for special occasions or holidays because they are so easy, make ahead and simple to double/triple or I've even 10X the recipe!

Ingredients
Beef Tips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 1/2 pounds beef chuck roast cut into large bite size pieces, or sirloin, trimmed of excess fat
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 onion may sub 1 teaspoon onion powder, chopped
- 4-6 garlic may sub 1 teaspoon garlic powder, cloves, minced
Gravy
- 1-4 tablespoons butter in directions, unsalted
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups beef broth low sodium
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce low sodium
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 teaspoons beef bouillon
- 1/2 tsp EACH parsley dried
- 1/2 tsp EACH paprika dried
- 1/4 tsp EACH dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp EACH dried thyme
Instructions
- While meat is still on the cutting board, toss it with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add beef (work in 2 batches if needed) to the very hot skillet and sear on each side, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer seared beef to a lightly greased 6-quart (or larger) slow cooker and top with onions and garlic.
- To the remaining juices left in the skillet, melt 1-4 tablespoons butter. The amount of butter will depend on how much juices/fat are left from searing your meat. You want approximately 1/2 cup between the juices and the butter. Whisk the flour into the butter and cook for 2 minutes over medium heat.
- Whisk in all the remaining Gravy ingredients. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer until thickened to the consistency of thick gravy (gravy will thin once cooked with the beef). Add the gravy to the slow cooker and stir to combine.
- Cook on HIGH for 3-4 hours or on LOW for 5-7 hours. Beef is ready when it is melt in your mouth tender. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve with potatoes, pasta or rice.
