Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 pound baby potatoes, halved

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

  • ½ teaspoon paprika

  • ½ cup beef broth

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  • Season the Beef
    In a large bowl, combine the beef cubes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, thyme, rosemary, and paprika. Toss well until the beef is evenly coated.

  • Brown the Beef (Optional but Recommended)
    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef in batches until browned on all sides. This step adds extra flavor, but you can skip it if you’re short on time.

  • Transfer to Crockpot
    Place the beef into the crockpot.

  • Prepare the Garlic Butter
    In the same skillet, add the minced garlic to the melted butter. Cook on low heat for 1–2 minutes, just until fragrant (do not brown).

  • Assemble the Dish
    Pour the garlic butter over the beef. Add the baby potatoes around the beef, then pour in the beef broth. Gently stir to combine.

  • Slow Cook
    Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until the beef is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.

  • Finish and Serve
    Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Browning the beef adds depth and richness, but the recipe still works great without it.

  • You can substitute baby potatoes with fingerling potatoes or quartered red potatoes.

  • Add carrots, onions, or mushrooms for extra flavor and nutrition.

  • If you love garlic, feel free to add an extra clove or two.

  • Serve with crusty bread to soak up the delicious garlic butter sauce.

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
