Scale
- 2 lbs beef stew meat or sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prep ingredients: Season beef cubes with salt, pepper, onion powder, paprika, and thyme.
- Layer in slow cooker: Add baby potatoes to the bottom of the crockpot. Top with seasoned beef.
- Make garlic butter: In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour over the beef and potatoes.

Notes
For extra richness, add a splash of heavy cream at the end. Swap baby potatoes with Yukon golds or red potatoes. Great for meal prep — leftovers hold up well for several days.
