Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 7 hours
Total Time: 7 hours 20 minutes
Servings: 4–6

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 pounds (about 900 g) chuck steak, round, or sirloin cut
  • 1.5 pounds (about 700 g) baby potatoes, whole and unpeeled
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

Liquids and Seasoning

  • 1 cup (240 ml) beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 ounce packet dry onion soup mix
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Optional Garnish

  • Chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Sear the Steak
    • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Add a light drizzle of oil if needed, then add the steak.
    • Sear for 1–2 minutes per side, until a deep golden-brown crust forms.
    • Remove from the heat. You are only browning the outside, not cooking the steak through.
  2. Layer in the Crockpot
    • Place the seared steak in the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker.
    • Arrange the baby potatoes on top of the steak.
    • Scatter the sliced onion and minced garlic over the potatoes.
  3. Add Seasonings and Liquids
    • Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and dry onion soup mix evenly over everything in the crockpot.
    • Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
    • Dot the top with the unsalted butter; do not stir.
  4. Slow Cook
    • Cover and cook on Low for 6–8 hours, or on High for 3–4 hours, until the steak is very tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
  5. Finish and Serve
    • Gently stir to coat the meat and potatoes in the sauce.
    • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
    • Serve hot, sprinkled with chopped parsley if desired.

Pro Tips

  • For extra flavor, deglaze the skillet after searing the steak with a splash of beef broth and pour those browned bits into the crockpot.
  • If you prefer thicker gravy, remove ¼ cup of cooking liquid near the end, whisk in 1 tablespoon cornstarch, then return it to the crockpot and cook on High for 10–15 minutes.
  • This recipe is easy to double if your slow cooker is large enough; just keep the steak in a single layer as much as possible so it cooks evenly.
  • Leftovers reheat well; store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
