If I have red wine in the house, I will replace water with 1/4 to 1/3 cup, and pour the rest in a glass. 😀 Fresh garlic is best, but garlic powder works well too. Mushrooms are also a wonderful addition. Serve the beef tips over rice, mashed potatoes or eggs noodles. Add a side salad and your favorite veggie and you have yourself a satisfying meal the whole family will enjoy.

Best-Ever Beef Tips
- 2 lbs cubed beef stew meat
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil (or canola)
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cups water
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (I use fresh garlic)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- *1 package brown gravy mix (.75 ounce)
- 1 cup water
*For less salt/ lower sodium, leave out the teaspoon of salt and use reduced sodium soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and brown gravy mix.
- *For less salt/ lower sodium, leave out the teaspoon of salt and use reduced sodium soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and brown gravy mix.
- Red wine is an awesome addition. I use 1/4 to 1/3 cup of wine – replacing an equal amount of water with wine (1/4 cup wine plus 1 3/4 cups water OR 1/3 cup wine with 1 2/3 cups water).
- Mushrooms are a great addition too.

I made this last night and my boyfriend loved it and he’s not easy to please
I made this for the first time and the meat was so dry and tough and not be making this again
Hi Jenn – Sorry to hear. I am not sure what went wrong for you, but as you can see from all the reviews, this is a really great recipe.
Agree- it is great!
Bet it had something to do with either cut of beef or not cooking long enough.
This is a great meal. I’ve made it half a dozen times and we
I’ve it. Only difference is I use my small crockpot and let it cook all afternoon.
Do you just put everything in the crockpot and cook on low? Or high?
Wonderful recipe! My whole family enjoyed it. I ran out of Worcestershire sauce so used balsamic vinegar instead. So yummy!!
I love this easy recipe. I substituted the water for beef broth and added beef bullion cubes and God damn. Your mouth will thank you.
Do you drain the liquid that the steak was cooked in before adding gravy?
OMG so delicious a new family fav!! I did alter slightly to reduce salt!! Used all reduced sodium’s soy sauce & Worcestershire. I actually forgot to omit salt so instead of full packet brown gravy. I used 2/3rds cup water and 1/3rd red wine with 2TBSP of brown packet gravy. The wine made a huge difference and the 2 Tbsp was just the right Amount to add flavor and thick’n the sauce. Served over wide egg noodles SO AMAZING!!! Thank you for sharing!!
I don’t have brown gravy mix, what can I do?
Very tasty!
How could I convert to crock pot?
How can I convert this to the crockpot?
Husband loved this. I added some red wine, carrots and potatoes.
Made this for my 3 kids on this snowy New Year’s Day. They all gave it two thumbs up. I’ll go with the lower sodium recommendations next time and I used 3/4 cup of wine with 1 1/4 cup water. So good!
OMG! this is the best recipe ever!
My husband loves this dish plus its so easy to make!!
I give this 5 stars!!!
If I were to put this in the instant pot, would I cook it for 30 minutes you think?
Yep 25-30mins
This is so delicious! I add sautéed mushrooms in at the end too! My fiancé gobbled it down and went for more! So easy to prepare!
