Instructions
- Season both sides of your steaks with paprika, onion powder, and steak seasoning.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the steaks quickly on both sides. You want to get a little color, not cook them.
- Remove the steaks from the pan and place them at the bottom of your slow cooker.
- Add your butter, onion, and pepper to the skillet.
- Stir this around until the butter melts and the peppers and onion pick up the steak bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Toss in your garlic and flour and stir everything together for 1 minute.
- Add this pepper-onion mixture to the slow cooker.
- Next, in a small bowl, combine one brown gravy mix, water, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar. Whisk to combine.
- Pour this over the steak in the slow cooker.
- Cover and cook on low 6 hours or high 4 hours or until the meat is tender.
- Remove the steak from the slow cooker.
- Whisk in the second envelope of brown gravy mix.
- Add the steak back to the gravy.
- Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.
Notes
- Searing your steak before adding it to the slow cooker makes a world of difference in terms of flavor and texture. It helps keep the steak in one piece and prevents it from turning into a big pot of mush.
- While I love the combination of smoked paprika, onion powder, and steak seasoning, you can mix things up and use your favorite blend of spices. Maybe you like a little more heat from cayenne pepper or a bit of sweetness from brown sugar.
- The beauty of this recipe is that it's endlessly customizable. For an extra layer of flavor, add sliced mushrooms, diced potatoes, or even a splash of red wine to the slow cooker.
