Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds beef stew meat or chuck roast, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 packet (1 ounce) dry onion soup mix
- 1 packet (1 ounce) dry ranch seasoning mix
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup cold water
- Egg noodles or mashed potatoes, for serving
Instructions
- Place the beef pieces in the bottom of your slow cooker.
- Sprinkle the dry onion soup mix and dry ranch seasoning mix evenly over the beef.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce until combined. Pour this mixture over the beef in the slow cooker.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 7 to 8 hours or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours, until the beef is very tender.
- About 30 minutes before serving, mix the cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir this slurry into the liquid in the slow cooker.
- Increase the heat to HIGH (if it was on LOW) and cook uncovered for about 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gravy thickens.
- Serve the tender Crockpot Beef Tips and gravy hot over prepared egg noodles or mashed potatoes.
Notes
- For extra flavor depth, you can sear the beef tips in a hot skillet with a little oil before adding them to the slow cooker.
- If you prefer a thinner gravy, reduce the amount of cornstarch used in the final step.
- This dish freezes well; cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
