FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

How do you cook beef tips on the stove?

Season the cuts of beef with lemon pepper seasoning. Add a little oil to a large pot. Brown the beef tips in a large pot. Remove them to a plate. Add the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth and onion soup mix to the pot. Whisk together well. Add the beef back to the pot. Cover and cook on low heat for about an hour. Right before they are done, whisk together melted butter and flour. Add this mixture into the pot. Turn the heat up on the pot to medium-high until the mixture thickens. Then serve.

How do you make beef tips in the oven?

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Season the beef tips with lemon pepper seasoning. In a large oven safe pot or baking dish add the stew meat. In a bowl whisk together the the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth and onion soup mix. Pour this over the beef tips. Cover pot with a lid (or aluminum foil) and cook on the middle shelf for about an hour. If you need to thicken the sauce, follow my directions below for the butter/flour mixture to add to the pot.

What cut of meat is best for beef tips?

Since we are cooking this low and slow, you can use a cheaper cut of meat like chuck roast. However, you could also use steak. Flat iron steak is still relatively inexpensive, serves the same amount of people and provides a lot of flavor.

What do you serve with beef tips?

I like serving beef tips over rice to take advantage of all that yummy gravy! You can also serve with my Million Dollar Mashed Potatoes or just some simple egg noodles. Also, we really love these Maple Glazed Carrots as a veggie side dish!

What size crock pot should I use?

A five or six quart crock pot works perfect for this recipe.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)

beef chuck roast
lemon pepper seasoning
dry onion soup mix
cream of mushroom soup (lower sodium)
beef broth (low sodium)
butter
flour

HOW TO MAKE CROCK POT BEEF TIPS WITH GRAVY:

In a 5 quart slow cooker, combine dry onion soup mix, cream of mushroom soup and beef broth. Whisk to combine (don’t worry if there are lumps, they will come out as it cooks.)

Cut beef into about 1-inch cubes. Sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning on beef.

Add meat to crock pot and give it all a good stir.

Cover and cook on low for at least 6-8 hours.

Once it’s ready, you can work on the gravy. Now, you can serve this up just as it is when it is ready. But I know some folks like a thicker gravy and it couldn’t be easier to make. In a medium pot, melt two tablespoons of butter. Once it is melted, add in about 3 heaping tablespoons of flour. Whisk it together until smooth. In French cooking terminology, this is called a “roux” (pronounced “roo”.)

Pour in 2 cups of the beef broth mixture into the butter/flour mixture. What I like to do is scoop all the beef tips out of the crock pot and put them in a bowl or on a plate. Then pour 2 cups of the beef broth mixture into a measuring cup.

Whisk it together until smooth, then bring the heat up to high (while whisking briskly the whole time.) It should quickly begin to thicken. Once it gets to your desired thickness, take it off the heat and pour it back into your crock pot. Then add the beef tips back in and stir well.

Serve over rice, mashed potatoes or egg noodles!

Cook’s note: If you don’t have cream of mushroom soup, you can substitute cream of chicken. But I will tell you that neither my husband and I enjoy mushrooms and we enjoy this. You don’t taste any mushrooms as an ingredient in this.

Notes

Serve over rice, mashed potatoes or egg noodles!
Cream of chicken can be substituted for the cream of mushroom.
Lower sodium options can be used where applicable.
To make on the stovetop: Season the cuts of beef with lemon pepper seasoning. Add a little oil to a large pot. Brown the beef tips in a large pot. Remove them to a plate. Add the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth and onion soup mix to the pot. Whisk together well. Add the beef back to the pot. Cover and cook on low heat for about an hour. Right before they are done, whisk together melted butter and flour. Add this mixture into the pot. Turn the heat up on the pot to medium-high until the mixture thickens. Then serve.
To make in the oven: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Season the beef tips with lemon pepper seasoning. In a large oven safe pot or baking dish add the stew meat. In a bowl whisk together the the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth and onion soup mix. Pour this over the beef tips. Cover pot with a lid (or aluminum foil) and cook on the middle shelf for about an hour. If you need to thicken the sauce, follow my directions above for the butter/flour mixture to add to the pot.
To thicken the gravy, you can just mix together 3 Tablespoons of cornstarch with 3 Tablespoons water and add this to the slow cooker then turn on high until gravy is thickened. The butter/flour mixture just adds a little more flavor but it’s not absolutely necessary.
