Meat & Broth
- 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin beef
- 1 cup beef broth
Vegetables
- 4 cups peeled and sliced Yukon Gold or red potatoes
- 1 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
- 1 cup sliced onions
Cheese
- 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
Seasonings & Oils
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter (for sautéing)
- Prepare the Vegetables: Thinly slice onions and bell peppers. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté them in olive oil or butter until soft and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
- Layer the Ingredients in the Crockpot: Spray the crockpot with cooking oil. Place a layer of sliced potatoes at the bottom, followed by the sautéed onions and peppers, then the thinly sliced beef on top.
- Season and Add Broth: Sprinkle garlic powder, salt, and pepper evenly over the layers. Pour beef broth over everything to keep it moist and add rich flavor.
- Cook Low and Slow: Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, allowing flavors to meld and the beef to become tender.
- Add Cheese and Finish Cooking: About 30 minutes before serving, sprinkle shredded provolone or your choice of cheese over the casserole. Cover and cook until the cheese melts into gooey perfection.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced beef to ensure quick cooking and tenderness.
- Pre-soak potatoes in cold water to reduce starch and prevent clumping.
- Sautéing veggies adds caramelized flavors that deepen the taste.
- Be careful with the amount of broth; too much makes it soupy, too little causes sticking.
- Layer potatoes on the bottom to cook evenly without drying out.
