Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Slow Cooker
Lightly grease your slow cooker with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Season the Beef
In a bowl, combine minced garlic, melted butter, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Mix well. Add the beef sirloin and toss to coat.
Step 3: Cook the Potatoes
Place the halved potatoes in the slow cooker. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook on low for 4-6 hours, or until tender.
Step 4: Cook the Beef Bites
Remove the cooked potatoes and set aside. Add the seasoned beef to the slow cooker and spread evenly. Cook on low for 2-3 hours, or until tender.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!
Serve the beef and potatoes together. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
Keto/Low-Carb Variation
For a keto or low-carb option, substitute cauliflower florets for the potatoes. The rest of the recipe remains the same!
Tips & Tricks
- Marinate the beef overnight for extra flavor.
- For a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with water and add during the last hour of cooking.
- Add other vegetables like carrots or bell peppers for a more colorful dish.
