# Instructions:

01 - Cut 2 lbs boneless beef chuck roast into 1 1/2-inch cubes. Quarter 1 1/2 lbs baby red potatoes and chop 1 large yellow onion. This forms the hearty foundation for your Crockpot Garlic Butter Beef Bites with Potatoes Recipe.
02 - In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted, with 2 tbsp minced garlic. Stir in 1 cup low-sodium beef broth and 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce. This creates the rich garlic butter infusion for the dish.
03 - Place the beef, potatoes, and onion into a 6-quart slow cooker. Pour the garlic butter mixture over everything. Season with 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp smoked paprika, and 1 tsp dried thyme.
04 - Cover and cook on LOW for 6 hours, or on HIGH for 3 hours, until the beef is fork-tender and the potatoes are soft. This slow cooking process ensures tender Crockpot Garlic Butter Beef Bites with Potatoes Recipe.
05 - In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp cornstarch and 2 tbsp cold water to form a slurry. Stir the slurry into the liquid in the slow cooker. Cook on HIGH for another 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
06 - Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Ladle the Crockpot Garlic Butter Beef Bites with Potatoes Recipe into bowls. Garnish generously with 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped, before serving warm.

# Notes:

01 - For an even richer flavor, consider searing the beef cubes in a hot pan with a little oil before adding them to the slow cooker.
02 - Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
03 - Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots or mushrooms during the last hour of cooking for extra nutrition and flavor.
04 - Serve these hearty beef bites with a side of crusty bread to soak up all the delicious garlic butter sauce.
