# How to Make It:
01 -
Gather and measure all ingredients. Cut beef stew meat into bite-sized pieces and halve the baby potatoes for consistent cooking.

If desired, parboil the halved baby potatoes in boiling water for several minutes to soften slightly, then drain well.
03 -
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef bites and sear until browned on all sides. Work in batches to avoid overcrowding, then set beef aside.
04 -
In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until evenly blended.
05 -
Arrange halved baby potatoes and seared beef in the slow cooker. Pour garlic butter sauce evenly over contents and add beef broth.
06 -
Cover and cook on low setting for 6–8 hours or on high for 3–4 hours, until beef is fork-tender and potatoes are cooked through.
07 -
Allow the dish to rest in the slow cooker, covered, for 10 minutes before serving for best texture and flavor integration.
