Slow-Cooker Beef Stew
Is there anything better in the fall than soups or stews ? This stew comes out fabulous after cooking all day in the crock-pot. Have you tried any of the other crock-pot or instant pot meals I've shared? Some of my favorites are Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff and INSTANT POT CHILI both are so good. So is this stew . I used sirloin tips , however you can use stew beef that you can buy at the grocery store or use a roast and cut it up. This is the first time I've added tomato paste to stew and I loved the extra little zip that it gave it.
