Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients

For the Beef

  • 2 pounds Beef Chuck Roast Substitute with beef stew meat if desired.

For the Sauce

  • 1 packet Onion Soup Mix Consider using a reduced-sodium variety for a healthier option.
  • 1 packet Brown Gravy Mix Swap for homemade gravy to elevate the overall taste.
  • 1/4 cup Apple Cider Vinegar White or red wine vinegar can also be used.

For Serving

  • 4 cups Prepared Mashed Potatoes Both instant and fresh variants work well.
  • 1 loaf Garlic Bread Both store-bought and homemade are excellent options.

Instructions

How to Make Slow Cooker Beef Manhattan

  • Cut the beef chuck roast into large, uniform chunks (about 2-3 inches) to ensure even cooking.
  • Place the beef chunks in the slow cooker. Sprinkle the onion soup mix and brown gravy mix over the beef.
  • Drizzle apple cider vinegar over the seasoned beef to enhance the flavor and tenderness.
  • Set your slow cooker to LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the beef is fork-tender.
  • About 30 minutes before the beef is done, prepare your mashed potatoes and warm the garlic bread.
  • Serve the beef over the creamy mashed potatoes with warm garlic bread.

Notes

Consider garnishing with chopped parsley and adding freshly ground black pepper for extra kick. Store leftovers for up to 4 days in the fridge.
