Description
Experience melt-in-your-mouth tenderness with these easy Crockpot Garlic Butter Steak Bites. Sirloin steak seared to perfection and slow-cooked in a rich garlic butter sauce, creating a comforting and flavorful meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 lbs sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized chunks
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, for searing beef
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 stick butter (8 tablespoons)
- ¼ cup chopped parsley, for topping
Instructions
- Season the steak pieces with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil.
- Sear the steak bites for 2–3 minutes on each side, just until browned. Do not cook them through.
- Transfer the seared steak to your crockpot.
- Add the minced garlic and butter right on top of the steak.
- Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or on high for 3–4 hours, until the steak is tender and infused with garlic butter flavor.
- Stir well before serving and top with fresh parsley for color and freshness.
Notes
- For best results, sear the steak first to lock in flavor and create a caramelized edge.
- Sear steak in batches to brown, not steam.
- Use real butter for the best garlic butter flavor.
- Monitor cook time as crockpots vary; check for tenderness towards the end.
- Garnish with fresh parsley just before serving for brightness.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–4 days. Reheat on the stovetop over medium heat.
- Add a splash of broth or butter if steak needs extra moisture when reheating.
- For a spicy kick, add red pepper flakes before cooking.
- Beef stew meat can be substituted for sirloin.
- Adjust garlic quantity to your preference.
- Adding ¼ cup broth can create extra sauce for serving.
- Stirring in a packet of au jus or brown gravy mix can thicken the sauce.
