  • Total Time: 4 hours 15 minutes to 8 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4-6 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs beef sirloin or chuck roast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for a spicy kick)
  • 1 cup beef broth or stock

Instructions

  1. Start by preparing your ingredients. Cut the beef into bite-sized cubes, mince the garlic, and chop the parsley. Pre-measure your seasonings so everything is ready to go.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, paprika, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Stir well to create a flavorful garlic butter infusion.
  3. Place the beef pieces in the slow cooker. Pour the garlic butter mixture over the meat, ensuring each piece is well coated. Add the beef broth for moisture and flavor.
  4. Cover and cook on the low setting for about 6–8 hours or on high for 3–4 hours. The beef will become incredibly tender and infused with buttery garlic aroma.
  5. Once cooked, give everything a gentle stir to distribute the garlic butter sauce evenly. Serve hot over rice, mashed potatoes, or a bed of sautéed vegetables.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, garnish with additional chopped parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice.
  • To make it gluten-free, ensure your beef broth is labeled gluten-free.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently, adding a splash of beef broth if needed for moisture.
