Description

Tasty and so easy to make - the slow cooker does all the work.

Adapted from Family Fresh Meals

Ingredients
  • 2 pounds beef stew meat
  • 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup (10 oz.)
  • 1 packet dry brown gravy mix (1 oz.)
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1/3 cup onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
  1. Place stew meat in a slow cooker (4 quart size recommended)

  2. In a large bowl combine soup, gravy mix, beef broth, onion, and garlic. Whisk together until well blended. Ignore any lumps in the mixture; they will blend in during cooking.

  3. Pour the soup mixture over the stew meat in the crock pot, and stir gently to combine.

  4. Cook on Low for 7 hours. When finished, remove the meat from the slow cooker using a slotted spoon and set aside.

  5. Set the slow cooker to High. Mix the cornstarch and water to form a slurry, then slowly mix into the liquid in the slow cooker. When combined, return the meat to the slow cooker and continue cooking for about 5 minutes or until the gravy has started to thicken.
