Ingredients
Steak Bites
- 1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Garnish
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Instructions
- Prepare the steak: Cut the sirloin steak into bite-sized pieces ensuring uniform size for even cooking.
- Layer ingredients in crock pot: Place the steak pieces into the crock pot, then add minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly over the meat.
- Add butter: Cut the butter into small pieces and distribute them on top of the steak and seasoning mixture.
- Cook the steak bites: Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 4 to 5 hours until the steak is tender and infused with garlic butter flavor.
- Stir halfway through cooking: If possible, carefully stir the steak bites about halfway through the cooking process to ensure even seasoning and cooking.

Notes
- For extra tenderness and richer flavor, consider using ribeye or chuck steak instead of sirloin.
- Add mushrooms or onions to the crock pot at the start for additional depth and flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for best freshness.
