Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients and cut the beef into bite-sized pieces. Parboil the halved baby potatoes in boiling water for about 5 minutes if you prefer softer potatoes.
  2. Sear the Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet, sear the beef for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.
  3. Make the Garlic Butter Sauce: Mix melted butter, minced garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper in a bowl until well blended.
  4. Assemble in Slow Cooker: Layer the parboiled baby potatoes at the bottom, followed by seared beef bites. Pour the garlic butter sauce over them and add beef broth.
  5. Slow Cook the Mixture: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours until beef is fork-tender.
  6. Rest Before Serving: Let the dish rest in the slow cooker for 10 minutes after cooking, then serve warm.

Notes

Choose quality beef cuts for tenderness. Don't rush the sear to lock in flavors. Adjust salt based on beef broth saltiness. Let the dish rest for better flavor.
