Notes
Serving Tips : My family loves these beef tips, with some extra gravy sauce, served over mashed potatoes - try these Cream Cheese Mashed Potatoes or Boursin Cheese Mashed Potatoes.
You could also make it real simple and use instant potato flakes that you prepare with boiling water. Or purchase some ready-to-eat mashed potatoes from the grocery store.
Other serving options include cooked rice (white rice or brown rice), cooked pasta, or egg noodles.
Beef Broth : I prefer using full salted beef broth or beef stock when I make crockpot recipes. The longer cook time tends to mute flavors, which is why I use the full salt version. You could also use water + bouillon or beef bone broth is another great option.
Stew Meat : I don't love using stew meat because although it's simple with no prep needed, the pieces are fattier and have more cartilage type chunks on them. I prefer using a leaner sirloin roast that I cut into large chunks.
You can also use chunked flank steak or skirt steak. Or buy a larger piece of beef roast and cut it and trim it into large chunks.
Cook Time : I prefer this recipe cooked low & slow (it's best to do that for beef recipes because it makes the meat fall apart tender). However, you could cook it on HIGH heat for 4-5 hours if needed.
