Each time i am so excited to make this recipe. Its inexpensive, super easy to make and you can modify it the way you want! Add mushrooms, rice or potatoes and make this recipe yours.

Basically beef tips are parts of sirloin or tenderloin. In stores the they sell it as a stew meat. If the pieces are too big, cut them in half for this recipe.

This recipe is not for a quick dinner. Beef needs to be cooked slow and on low.

Why this recipe works

When beef is cooked for a long time on in the slow cooker or on the stove, it becomes so tender and juicy. Gravy becomes so rich and flavorful! Even the picky eater will love it.

Oh, and the kitchen… you will feel the inviting aroma all way from the street!

If you have leftovers

If you have leftovers, store them in the airtight container for up to 5 days. When ready to eat reheat in the microwave or by pouring it back in the pot.

You can also freeze leftovers in double ziplock bags. It will prevent the food from getting a freeze burn. Store for up to 4 months.

Here is two ways to make this recipe in your slow cooker, with browning the meat and without.
