Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by cutting the beef stew meat into bite-sized pieces, roughly 1-inch cubes. Halve the baby potatoes to enhance tenderness.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear beef bites for about 3-4 minutes per side until brown.
  3. Melt unsalted butter in a mixing bowl; stir in minced garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
  4. In the slow cooker, layer halved potatoes at the bottom, then seared beef bites, followed by pouring garlic butter sauce and adding beef broth.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours until the beef is fork-tender.
  6. Let the dish rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish if desired and enjoy!
