A comforting and flavorful dish of tender beef tips cooked in a creamy onion gravy, perfect for a hearty meal.
Heat a saucepan over medium heat and sear the beef sirloin cubes until browned on all sides.
Browning the beef enhances its flavor and adds depth to the dish.
Transfer the browned beef to the slow cooker.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the beef, leaving excess grease behind.
In the same saucepan, sauté the minced garlic and sliced onion until fragrant and softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the sautéed garlic and onion to the slow cooker.
Layer the onions evenly over the beef for even cooking.
In a bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the mixture to ensure a smooth consistency.
Pour the mixture over the beef and onions in the slow cooker.
Ensure the beef is fully covered for even cooking.
Set the slow cooker to low and cook for 6-7 hours, or until the beef is tender.
Avoid opening the lid during cooking to maintain consistent heat.
Stir in the sour cream during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
Adding the sour cream at the end prevents it from curdling.
Serve the beef tips and gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
