What Cut of Steak Works Best for Crockpot Steak Bites?

For the best texture and flavor, go with sirloin or chuck steak. These cuts are affordable and hold up beautifully to slow cooking, becoming fall-apart tender as they absorb all the flavors. If you’re using leaner cuts like round steak, just be sure not to overcook or they might get a bit dry. Ribeye can work too if you’re feeling fancy!

Ingredients for the Crockpot Steak Bites

Making these Crockpot Steak Bites only requires a few essential ingredients, each bringing its own purpose to the dish.

• Steak: The star of the show. Choose chuck, sirloin, or another well-marbled cut.
• Butter: Adds richness and helps create that silky garlic sauce.
• Garlic: Minced fresh garlic gives the dish a deep, savory aroma.
• Beef broth: Brings moisture and infuses the steak with beefy flavor.
• Worcestershire sauce: Adds depth and a slight tangy-sweet kick.
• Salt and pepper: To season everything just right.
• Parsley (optional): A touch of freshness to finish things off.

How To Make the Crockpot Steak Bites

Step 1: Prep the Steak

Trim any excess fat and cut the steak into bite-sized cubes. Try to keep them uniform for even cooking.

Step 2: Season Generously

Toss the steak bites in salt and pepper to coat evenly. If you like a deeper crust, sear them quickly in a hot skillet before transferring to the crockpot, but it’s optional.

Step 3: Load the Crockpot

Add the steak bites to your slow cooker. Top with minced garlic, pats of butter, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth. Give it a gentle stir to combine.

Step 4: Let it Cook Low and Slow

Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the steak is fork-tender and infused with garlicky, buttery goodness.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

Before serving, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for color and brightness. Serve hot with your choice of side dishes.

How to Serve and Store Crockpot Steak Bites

These steak bites make an ideal main dish for family dinners or meal prep. They feed around 4 to 6 people, depending on portion size and sides. The buttery sauce is perfect for spooning over mashed potatoes or rice.

To store leftovers, cool the steak bites completely and refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months—just thaw and reheat gently in a saucepan with a splash of broth to loosen the sauce.

What to Serve With Crockpot Steak Bites?
