Why Make This Recipe?

Slow Cooker Garlic Butter Beef Bites & Potatoes offers uncompromising flavor with minimal effort.

Choosing the Best Ingredients & Prep Tips

Opt for well-marbled chuck roast for optimum tenderness and flavor. Yukon Gold potatoes are prized for their creaminess and ability to hold their shape. The key to elevating this dish lies in evenly chopped vegetables; a tool like the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper can make prepping potatoes and onions fast and effortless.

For even richer garlic flavor, sautéing the garlic briefly before adding it to the slow cooker can unlock deeper notes. And when dicing the beef, try to keep the pieces uniform to ensure they cook evenly.

• Let the slow cooker work its magic for hours, filling the home with an irresistible aroma and guaranteeing fork-tender results.
