Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs beef chuck roast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 cup beef broth
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions:

  1. Pat the beef cubes completely dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet over high heat. Sear beef in batches for 2 minutes per side until a deep mahogany crust forms, then transfer to the slow cooker.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, Worcestershire sauce, and onion powder.
  4. Pour the beef broth and soy sauce into the bottom of the slow cooker.
  5. Place the seared beef bites into the pot, ensuring they are not overly crowded.
  6. Pour the garlic-butter mixture evenly over the top of the meat.
  7. Cover and cook on High for 4 hours or Low for 7–8 hours until the beef is fork-tender.
