Put raw cubed beef in a slow cooker with these 3 ingredients. You won’t believe how good it tastes..

Here’s a simple, incredibly flavorful slow-cooker beef recipe using just 3 main ingredients (plus optional basics like salt and pepper).

3-Ingredient Slow Cooker Beef

🥩 Ingredients

• 2–3 lbs raw cubed beef (stew meat or chuck)
• 1 packet dry onion soup mix
• 1 cup beef broth
• ½ cup soy sauce

(Optional: black pepper, garlic powder, or a splash of Worcestershire for extra depth.)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Add beef to the slow cooker.
2. Sprinkle the onion soup mix evenly over the meat.
3. Pour in the beef broth and soy sauce.
4. Stir lightly to coat.
5. Cook:
   • Low: 7–8 hours
   • High: 4–5 hours
6. Stir before serving. The beef should be fork-tender and packed with savory flavor.

🔥 Why It’s So Good

The onion soup mix adds seasoning and richness, the soy sauce brings deep umami, and the slow cooking makes the beef unbelievably tender.
