Ingredients

3 pounds cubed beef stew meat

½ cup butter

1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix

Directions

Gather all ingredients.

Place beef and butter in a slow cooker and sprinkle onion soup mix over top.

Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

It’s beef slow cooked in a full stick of butter. The only other ingredient is an envelope of dry onion soup mix. Simmering the beef slowly in the butter renders tender, flavorful beef that melts in your mouth.

While many Allrecipes reviewers labeled the dish perfection as is, others offered suggestions for putting your own spin on it. Several reviewers added a combination of various vegetables—most frequently mushrooms, onions, garlic, and bell peppers. One member even recommended adding a splash or two of red wine, and now my tastebuds can’t wait to try that version!

While the recipe suggests serving the beef over egg noodles, feel free to improvise based on your family’s own tastes and dietary needs. Rice, mashed potatoes, and riced cauliflower all make  great bases for the beef.
