Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounce(s) lean sirloin, cubed
  • 1/8 cup(s) flour
  • 1 1/2 cup(s) beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon(s) garlic, minced
  • 1 red onion, rough chop
  • 1 cup(s) baby carrots
  • 8 ounce(s) mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon(s) thyme
  • 2 potatoes, cubed

Instructions
 

  • If your crock-pot has a high browning setting, brown all sides of your meat, in 3-5 tbsp butter.
  • You can also use a large saute pan on your stove top, being sure to scrape the pans dripping into the crock pot for best flavoring.
  • When meat is golden to deep brown on all sides, add hot tap water to half way up your crock-pot.
  • Leave crock-pot on high.
  • In a saute pan on your stovetop, add 1-2 tbs of butter with onions and saute until they're a deep golden brown, stirring often so they don't burn.
  • Pour the sauteed onions in the crock-pot and place pan back on the stovetop.
  • Carefully pour hot tap water in the pan, stirring to get all the sticky onion leftovers off the bottom and sides, and then pour this watery mixture into your crock-pot.
  • Add hot tap water to cover meat.
  • Add your favorite seasonings.
  • When making this meal, remember the meat will take longer to cook, add potatoes and carrots about half way through the cooking stage, so they don't get mushy.
  • You may need to add hot tap water, to cover over the vegetables.
  • This yummy dish takes a while if you want your meat to be tender, but it's worth the wait.
  • Ready in 12 hours.
