Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Slow Cooker
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 pounds beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Place the beef stew meat, cubed potatoes, diced onion, and minced garlic into the slow cooker.
  • Pour the crushed tomatoes and beef broth over the meat and vegetables.
  • Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
  • Stir everything together until the ingredients are evenly combined.
  • Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, until the beef is tender and the potatoes are soft.
  • Stir once more before serving to distribute the sauce.

Notes

For a thicker stew, mash a few potato pieces against the side of the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Leftovers reheat well on the stovetop with a splash of broth to loosen the sauce. If you prefer a brighter tomato flavor, add an extra pinch of Italian seasoning after cooking.
