Crock Pot Steak Bites
Description
The Crock Pot Steak Bites recipe centers on cooking small chunks of round steak in a crock pot with diced onions, minced garlic, salt, pepper, butter, and beef broth. The low-temperature slow cooking for several hours breaks down the tough fibers of the round steak, producing tender pieces infused with the buttery beef broth and aromatic onion and garlic. The method requires minimal active effort, mainly stirring occasionally if cooking on high. The beef pieces come out soft and richly flavored, making it suitable for serving immediately as a hearty main.
Crock Pot Steak Bites benefit from being served right away to enjoy their tender texture. This recipe adapts easily, as you can substitute stew meat or sirloin if desired, and optionally brown the meat before slow cooking to add some color and deeper flavor. Leftovers store well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for nearly a week.
Ingredients
- 3 lbs round steak (cut into small pieces)
- 1/2 onion diced
- 2 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup beef broth
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients in the crock pot.
- Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4, stirring occasionally.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- You can substitute stew meat or sirloin steak if preferred for the steak bites.
- Browning the steak pieces for 2-4 minutes before slow cooking adds color and more depth of flavor.
- Store leftover steak bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5-7 days.
