WHAT CAN I 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!
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
Note: I am using a Flat Iron cut of Beef Chuck Roast. Any chuck roast will work. I got a great deal at Kroger on this so that's why I went with this particular cut. Also, you can purchase pre-cut stew meat (like the picture below) to save on time.
HOW TO MAKE CROCK POT BEEF TIPS WITH GRAVY:
Add meat to crock pot and give it all a good stir.
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".)

CROCK POT BEEF TIPS & GRAVY
Ingredients
- 1 ½ lbs beef chuck roast
- 1 ½ tbsp lemon pepper seasoning, optional
- 1 package of dry onion soup mix
- 1 (10.5 oz) can of cream of mushroom soup (lower sodium)
- 1 (14 oz) can of beef broth (low sodium)
Instructions
- 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 ½-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 8 hours. You can serve this up just as it is when it is ready or you can easily thicken up the gravy part.
- 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.
- Then pour in 2 cups of the beef broth mixture into the butter/flour mixture.
- Whisk it again 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.

YUM! Looks fabulous 🙂
What a great meal! I am sure this is just so nice on a cold night
I love, love beef and gravy..and if you incorporate mushrooms even better. I love this recipe, and it totally looks awesome on the photo!
I have a turkey breast, potatoes, carrots, and onions cooking away in my slow cooker, as I type:)
slow cookers are great for hearty winter meals.
Your beef tips look very good. We do use low sodium, everything, broth, soy sauce, soup, etc.
Made the recipe exactly as written and I did thicken the gravy as you suggested. We all loved it. And as other people have said, you don't taste the mushroom as a separate ingredient. I hate mushrooms but LOVED this!!
I am making this tonight, I wanted to thicken up the gravy.. (after it has cooked in crock pot for 8 hours) when do I take out the beef tips?? In recipe it says to “add beef tips back in to crock pot” but I wasn’t sure when they come out! Thank you!
Hey this sounds nice....
Sounds and looks delicious!
Thank you! This was so good!
I love slow cooker recipes - makes a busy life a litle bit easier. I will definitely try this!

This looks great!! I love a good roast:) And yes the slow cooker is a dear friend of mine!!
I really do need to get my slow cooker out!! This would be a family pleaser in my house. My husband laughs as I take pics of his food and says he's getting used to eating cold food. =)
Yum! I love crock-pot meals! There is something so wonderful about throwing something together so fast and easily, and getting to relax or getting other work done! Looks fantastic!
Easy and delicious! Thanks for the recipe.
Made this - it was SO good! Served over rice with veggies.
Yum! This looks delicious!
This looks awesome! I need to break out the slow cooker more often. My husband would love this dish.
My husband would go nuts over this dish!
ok, I am seriously going to have to try beef tips. They keep appearing in my life and looking so yummy! I have never eaten them before but that will soon change. This is how I make my roasts though and it's fabulous, always. Thank you!
Yummy! You are my slow cooker bff 🙂
This looks and sounds delicious! I love making meals in the slow cooker... it's great to come home and have dinner all ready!
slow cooker meals are the best! thanks for sharing this post.. have a great day.
I've never made beef tips before, but this recipe sounds great! And I can use my slow cooker!!
What a nice recipe. I adore beef tips so this recipe has my name written all over it. This sounds delicious. I hope you have a great day. Blessings...Mary
I only make lentil soups in my slow cooker. I really need to broaden my horizons and try some meat dishes like this beef one you shared. It truly does look like a hearty meal!
This was SO good. I don't like mushrooms or mushroom soup but you honestly can't tell at all. It just deepens the flavor. So, so good! Hubby and family raved over it!
Patsy - I really don't think it will be a problem. I will say that I haven't ever let it go that long but I just can't see how it would hurt. If your beef tips are fairly small to begin with, they will tend to shrink up quite a bit during the cooking process. You may just want to put in a tad more beef broth. Also, just give it a good stir when you get home, before serving. Hope this helps, let me know how it goes!
