Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds stew beef, cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 6 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 packet dry onion soup mix
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Dice the potatoes and cut beef into bite-sized chunks. Place both into the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Mix together the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, and dry onion soup mix. Pour over the meat and potatoes, and stir to coat everything.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 7 hours, until the beef is tender and the potatoes are soft.
  • Dump the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the beef and potatoes, put the lid back on, and let it sit for 10 minutes until the cheese melts into a thick, cheesy gravy.
  • Serve the Crockpot Steak and Potato with Cheesy Gravy in deep bowls, garnished with chopped fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

Use high-quality ingredients for best flavor and texture.
Avoid overcooking the beef to maintain a slight chew.
Stir mixture well before serving to fully incorporate the melted cheese.
Try adding diced onions or bell peppers for extra flavor and nutrients.
Consider lean beef or extra vegetables for a lighter version.
