3-Ingredient Slow Cooker Sunday Gravy Beef Tips (Made with Cubed Sirloin Tip Roast)
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 2 ½ to 3 pounds cubed sirloin tip roast
- 2 packets brown gravy mix (about 0.87 to 1 ounce each)
- 2 cans condensed cream of mushroom soup (10.5 ounces each)
Slow Cooker Sunday Gravy Beef Tips: Directions
- Get the slow cooker ready. If you’d like, spray the inside of your slow cooker with a little nonstick cooking spray to make cleanup easier later. Add the cubed sirloin tip roast into the slow cooker and spread the pieces out into one even layer across the bottom.
- Make the gravy mixture. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the brown gravy mix together with the condensed cream of mushroom soup. Keep whisking until the mixture turns smooth with no lumps left. Spoon this gravy mix evenly over the beef cubes, then stir everything together so each piece of meat gets coated well.
- Cook it low and slow. Cover the slow cooker with its lid. Cook on LOW for 7 to 8 hours, or on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours. You’ll know it’s done when the beef is so tender it falls apart with a fork, and the gravy has turned hot, thick, and smooth. If you happen to be home, give the pot a stir once or twice while it cooks — but don’t worry if you can’t, since it will still taste great even if left alone the whole time.
- Taste and adjust. Once the cooking time is up, taste the gravy to see if it needs anything extra. Since the gravy mix and soup already add a good amount of flavor, you probably won’t need much more seasoning.
- Serve it warm. Spoon the hot beef tips and gravy over mashed potatoes, buttered noodles, or fluffy rice. Make sure to pour extra gravy over each serving so nothing goes to waste.
