Crockpot Garlic Butter Steak Bites (Print Version)

Steak bites simmered in garlic butter for melt-in-your-mouth tenderness and hearty, savory flavor.

# What You'll Need:

→ Main

01 - 2.5 pounds chuck roast, trimmed and cut into 1 to 1.5-inch cubes
02 - 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced

→ Seasonings

03 - 1 packet (1 ounce) au jus seasoning mix
04 - 1 tablespoon steak seasoning blend

→ Aromatics and Sauce

05 - 8 cloves fresh garlic, minced
06 - 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pats
07 - 1 cup beef broth, low sodium

→ Finishing Touch

08 - 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Layer the sliced onion evenly on the bottom of the slow cooker and sprinkle the au jus seasoning over the onions to create a savory foundation.
02 - Cut the chuck roast into uniform 1 to 1.5-inch cubes. Toss beef cubes thoroughly with steak seasoning until well coated.
03 - Distribute the seasoned beef cubes evenly over the onion and au jus base in the crockpot.
04 - Dot the beef cubes with butter pats across the surface and sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over everything.
05 - Carefully pour beef broth around the edges of the crockpot, avoiding pouring directly over the seasonings to preserve flavor.
06 - Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6 hours without opening the lid to allow the beef to become fork-tender.
07 - Just before serving, gently stir in the fresh chopped parsley to brighten and balance the flavors.

# Additional Notes:

01 - For extra tenderness, choose well-marbled chuck roast and avoid lifting the lid during cooking. Leftovers keep well refrigerated up to 4 days or frozen up to 3 months.
