Steak And Potatoes (In The Crock Pot)
Let the crock pot do the work with this flavor-packed steak and potatoes dinner. This dinner is perfect for those nights when you need a family favorite, and I love that the whole dinner is cooked all at once.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds sirloin steak cut into cubes
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium white onion sliced thin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon steak seasoning
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 ½ pounds small yellow potatoes
- 3 ears corn about 6-8 pieces, 3-4 ears of corn with each ear broke in half
- 1/2 cup butter or 8 tablespoons, usually 1 stick, sliced into thin pieces
Instructions
- Place a large skillet over medium high heat with the olive oil. Season the steak with salt and pepper, then add it to the pan. Sear the steak bites quickly to get a little color on all sides of the steak, about 2-3 minutes. We don’t need to cook it through; you just want a quick sear (a little brown color) on the outside.
- Place the sliced onion on the bottom of the slow cooker. Add the steak on top of the onion. Sprinkle the paprika and steak seasoning over the steak. Sprinkle the minced garlic over the steak.
- Add the potatoes and the corn to the slow cooker. Place butter slices all around the potatoes and corn.
- Cover and cook in the slow cooker on low for 6 hours. Both the steak bites and potatoes should be fork tender. Add additional salt and pepper if desired, then enjoy!
Notes
I don't recommend cooking this steak and potatoes recipe in the slow cooker on high. I find that I often have an issue where the potatoes don't cook all the way through on high. If I cook this recipe on high long enough to cook the potatoes, then I find the steak just becomes a bit too chewy.
