Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cutting the beef into bite-sized pieces and halving the baby potatoes. Chop the onion and mince the garlic.
Cooking
  1. In a skillet over medium heat, melt half of the butter. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. In your slow cooker, place the beef stew meat at the bottom, followed by the halved potatoes. Scatter the sautéed onion and garlic on top.
  3. Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper over the ingredients.
  4. Pour the beef broth into the slow cooker, ensuring everything is somewhat submerged for even cooking.
  5. Cut the remaining butter into chunks and scatter over the top. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the beef is tender.
Serving
  1. Once done, give it a gentle stir and garnish with fresh parsley if you desire. Serve and enjoy!
