Burgundy Beef Stew
This slow cooker beef stew features the flavors of a traditional beef bourguignon, but with less hands-on time. Tender beef and veggies are simmered in a red wine-beef broth mixture and served over egg noodles. We added a sprinkling of crisp-cooked bacon as the topping for a bit of a salty (and irresistible!) crunch.
Beef and Broccoli
If you're prone to ordering takeout on busy weeknights, this slow cooker beef and broccoli is about to be your new go-to dinner. Boneless beef chuck roast is seasoned with Asian-style flavors (soy sauce, garlic, and ginger). There's a hint of orange and cayenne for a zesty-hot finish. Serve on hot cooked rice or noodles and you've got one delicious meal.
Beef and Carrot Ragu
Looking for a delicious, yet easy supper? Try this mouthwatering pasta sauce. Beef, carrots, and tomatoes simmer all day to create the most delicious homemade ragu you've ever tasted. Use red wine in the recipe to give your sauce more depth in flavor. While your slow cooker beef simmers away, try your hand at homemade pasta to serve with it.
Slow-Cooked Beef Pozole
Pozole is a thick soup stew made popular in Mexican cuisine featuring hominy and meat. Our interpretation stars flank steak for a slow cooker beef stew that will have you coming back for another bowl asap. The toppings are also key here, so pile on cilantro, queso fresco, and extra chile peppers to make all the flavors pop.
Slow Cooker Meatball Sandwiches
Yes, you can make delicious sandwiches with the help of your slow cooker. Warm-up after a cool day with homemade meatballs seasoned with herbs and spices before getting simmered in a spicy tomato sauce. Make your slow cooker meat dish top-notch by adding a sprinkling of mozzarella cheese and serving on hoagie buns.
Moroccan-Style Beef Short Ribs
One of the easiest ways to braise meat is by searing it in a skillet for color before a long simmer in your slow cooker. For these slow cooker short ribs, we've given them Moroccan-inspired flavor thanks to a spice blend of ginger, cinnamon, pepper, and thyme. The beef gets super tender in the slow cooker with broth, tomatoes, and fresh veggies. Serve atop couscous for a complete comforting meal.
German-Style Beef Roast
Red wine, chopped dill pickles (yes, pickles!), and tangy mustard set this succulent slow cooker beef pot roast apart from the rest. The veggies and cooking liquid turn into the most flavorful gravy. Serve it all on spaetzle (a type of egg noodle) to keep the traditional German theme going.
Slow Cooker Taco Meat Loaf
Meat loaf can be accomplished in the slow cooker, too. Instead of bread crumbs, we use crushed tortilla chips to help bind the ground beef mixture together. For some taco flair, the meat is seasoned with cumin, garlic, and paprika.
Test Kitchen Tip: Line your slow cooker with strips of foil for easy removal of your meat loaf.
Cranberry-Chipotle Beef
Looking for a slow-cooked beef roast that serves just two? Try this fiery, slightly sweet chipotle-seasoned chuck roast. It's also a great way to use that canned cranberry sauce sitting in your pantry. Serve with an easy side of rice or grains and you'll have a romantic dinner for two ready to go.
Italian Beef Sandwiches
Here's another slow cooker Italian beef recipe to pin for later. Tomato sauce with Italian seasonings and jarred pepperoncini peppers are the secret shortcut ingredients to adding a lot of flavor to these juicy slow cooker sandwiches. Simply shred the meat and top your bread with the flavorful beef. Don't forget the cheese!
