Preparation

Step 1

Place “steak tips” in crock pot and cover with one can of beef gravy. I often pop these suckers in frozen and just break them up a bit as they thaw and begin to cook. You don’t have to use beef gravy, you can use a packet of brown gravy mix, prepared according to package directions, and that will be fine, too.

Prepare rice according to package directions and spoon out steak tips and gravy to serve!

Rice, prepared according to package directions

Place stew meat in slow cooker, cover with beef gravy. Cook on low, 7-8 hours or on high 3-4 hours. Serve over hot rice.

Thanks for the stories – they make me feel like I’m with you. You have such a good way of telling a story. You’re my new friend.

So true…my parents drove all day and night to our vacation destinations – usually Daytona or Myrtle Beach – to save the money we’d spend on a motel room on the way. Mom would pack a picnic to eat on the way. They didn’t want to spend money on a kitchenette, so we’d have lunches of pimiento cheese and crackers and green grapes, or bologna sandwiches and apples my daddy sliced with his pocketknife. Our big meal out would be lunch at a drugstore restaurant!

I can’t believe something that looks so yummy so so easy!!!! Think I can add some onion to it and it won’t disintegrate? This sounds like the perfect meal for dinner one night next week!

When I was a little girl , Daddy would take Momma and me to Gatlinburg and to CHerokee N.C, all the time. It was a day trip for us . I made friends with some of the Indians in Cherokee. We would take a picnic lunch and find a cool place by a creek someplace. I would wade in the creek and I loved every minute of it. , Dad and I were always looking for bears. We were so poor but I didn’t know it . My Uncle had a grocery store and going there and getting five

As many comments as southern plate gets, you’d be amazed at what a small percentage of folks actually come back and comment when they like something. Really makes it mean even

This is a bit different from my own version but it’s an easy recipe no matter. I use 1 can of cream of whatever (usually chicken as my family doesn’t like mushrooms), 1 packet of brown gravy mix and the stew beef or cut up round steak into the slow cooker. Let cook all day on low and serve over rice or mashed potatoes.

I love the travel stories. My family never took vacations. Usually when Daddy got his vacation in the summer, we were in the middle of the garden coming in so we spent that time harvesting and preserving vegetables galore. We did occasionally make a day trip somewhere like the zoo in Jackson, MS or Vicksburg but they were few and far between. They were picnic days and, when KFC came along and a big box could be had for $4.50, we would have that. Kids these days just don’t know what fun is:) As for the riding in the back window, my mom would not let us do that and I always remember a little boy doing it in the car ahead and making faces at us all. Momma said that was why we couldn’t do it as he was acting like he had no raising.

We had Beef Tips on Rice for supper too. To make mine I use 1 Lb sirloin tip steak, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp garlic in a jar, 2 can beef consume soup. Cut steak into bit size piece, place with rest of ingredients in a pressure cooker. Pressure cook for 20 min. Release pressure and mix some water and cornstarch and add to thicken gravy. Cook rice while meat is cooking. Can use stew meat.

crock pot which is turned onto high. Then I add 2 cans of Golden Mushroom

soup can of water. Stir well and cover. Cook on High 2-3 hours. Thicken the

thickish. Can pour over Mash Potatoes or Egg Noodles or Rice. Enjoy.

I tried this yesterday and it was really good. It’s a definite keeper crock pot recipe and I am so thrilled because it contains an inexpensive cut of meat and I can throw the meat in the crock pot in it’s FROZEN state. How much easier does it get. I used about 2 lbs of meat and 1 can of beef gravy and 1 can of cream of mushroom soup, I added a little garlic and onion powder, and black pepper. We are having left overs tonight and we are looking forward to it. Give this a try soon.

What a great recipe! Made it for the first time yesterday – so good and so easy. Added some onions, but that was the only change. Tasted even better today! Thanks for another great recipe Christy!

When I went to the grocery store to buy steak for Father’s Day, the ones they had left didn’t look so good, but a big ‘ole package (about 2 lbs.) of steak tips did. So, I was looking forward to making them, but didn’t have a recipe yet. When I told my husband that I was making steak tips for dinner his reply was.. shall we say… less than enthusiastic. He complained that steak tips weren’t worth the effort and were always too tough. ENTER CHRISTY JORDAN’S STEAK TIPS OVER RICE RECIPE TO THE RESCUE. I cooked them up in my slow cooker for 4 hours on high. I used the same can of gravy and a can of cream of mushroom soup that Janice Lynn suggested. (Simply because my family REALLY enjoys cream of mushroom soup, especially my husband!) It made a LOT of gravy for the meat, but we didn’t run out. Next time I’ll probably just use the cream of mushroom soup and add a little beef bouillon for extra flavor. The meat turned out so good and wonderfully tender that my husband said that I need to add that recipe to our regular rotation!!!! Thanks a bunch for posting this simple, but wonderful recipe that saved our Father’s Day dinner!!!

1 envelope onion soup mix

Mix all ingredients in a slow cooker 4 quart or larger and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until meat is tender. Server over hot cooked rice or mashed potatoes.

I’ve been following you here & on Facebook for awhile & have tried many of your recipes on my southern husband. He had a hard time waiting on the pineapple, orange cake that had to sit for three days! Well anyway I made the steak tips over rice in his memory today & I know he would have loved it!! He passed away 9 months ago on Thanksgiving day. Thank you for sharing your recipes & stories they have helped me make meals my husband loved!

I was given the recipe w/ soups about a year ago and we love it on dumplings(thick egg noodles)! I am going to try it your way to shake things up! Personally I could eat beef and gravy in some configuration every single day! I think its the hillbilly in me!

I have been making something similar for years. But I use the pressure cooker then add beef to gravy in large pan. I also add steamed broccoli and carrots and served over rice. I actually just switched to brown rice with all the gravy its hard to notice the brown rice vs white.

Tried this last night, While it was an easy recipe, as is wasnt my favorite. The thing I do like about it is that its one that you can play with to meet your personal tastebuds. I think next time I will make a gravy from Lipton’s beefy onion soup packet and add some mushrooms as well. Good recipe but needs some doctoring other wise its very bland.

Christy, I do this with a cheap old roast (if such an animal exists nowadays!) and also a can of green chilis. This makes the best taco/burrito filling!

You would love the simple recipe of 1 pkg dry onion soup mix and a can of cream of onion (mushroom or whatever) soup and soup can of water and stew meat. Cook in crock pot for about 4 hours on high — so so good. Serve over rice…..

Just wondering how much stew beef you used (pounds) and how many people it fed b/c I’m planning to make this recipe for 8 adults and several children and wanted to know how much to adapt it. If I do use more stew meat do you think I would still only need one can of gravy? Thanks for your help and time in answering! =)

I make at LEAST 3 pounds of meat for my family of 5 (4 adults and one child) and there are really not many leftovers. Maybe enough for a child size portion. The meat really cookes down a lot in the slow cooker.I would definitely use 2 cans of gravy to the 6 pounds you may need for that big of a group.Try adding s package of lipton onion soup mix to the slow cooker as well. And a little pepper. So yummy!

I make this all the time when the weather starts getting colder. Just seems to warm ya from the inside out. I use your recipe plus I add a package of Lipton Onion Soup Mix and a large can of sliced mushrooms. the hubby LOVES mushrooms. =)
