Steak Tips Over Rice In The Crock Pot

My “steak tips” over rice is a delicious slow cooker recipe cooked all day in the crock pot to create tender juicy meat for a flavorful dinner.
This is one of my husband’s favorite meals and it is shamefully easy and incredibly cheap. You see, my “steak tips” over gravy is nothing more than stew meat slow cooked all day in the crock pot. Stew meat is easy to find on clearance. I usually pick up a few trays of it every few weeks and freeze it that day for this meal. Sometimes I do this with a roast as well, cutting it up into smaller pieces similar to how stew meat is cut.
A Slow Cooker is invaluable when it comes to cooking inexpensive cuts of meat. Meat that normally would yield tough results becomes fall apart tender through this method of cooking. The important thing to note is that tough meat needs fat in order to become tender. This is why roasts cooked in water are tougher than those cooked in gravy. You only need one can, even if you are making an entire roast, as it melds with the meat juices as they cook out as well and produce plenty of liquid.

How to Make Steak Tips over Rice:
Place “steak tips” in crock pot.
**If you have frozen meat you can just put the meat in the slow cooker and break them up a bit as they begin to cook.
Cover with one can of beef gravy.
**You don’t have to use beef gravy. You can use a packet of brown gravy mix, prepared according to package directions, and that will be fine, too. If you would like a recipe for steak with homemade gravy there is one right here.
Cook that on low all day for seven to eight hours or on high for three to four. That is the general cooking time for all crock pot meals in case you wanted to know 🙂

I made this last week for my family. I couldn’t wait to try it over rice. Next time my family wants it over mashed taters so I may try it with texas toast/taters/meat w/gravy over it. Me I loved the rice and will enjoy it everytime that way. I’m the only rice fan in my home.
I didn’t have canned gravy so I used “Tony Chachere’s) Creole Brown gravy mix and made that up and put in. The gravy is very good and easy to make I purchase it at the Bass Pro Shops here in Vegas.
Thanks so much for sharing your recipes and family history with us. I’m am really enjoying this site!
This is the first time I have ever commented on a recipe, but this one is so easy and good I just had to say something. I had a pkg. of reduced priced stew meat I was racking my brain on what to do with. I knew I wanted to cook it in the crock pot so the meat would be tender. Then I stumbled across this recipe and thought…this is toooo easy. Will it really be that good? Well, I fixed it for supper tonight and asked by sister and brother-in-law over (both are pretty picky eaters – pretty dull palates). Girlfriend, this was A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!!! My sister had 2 helpings and my brother-in-law had THREE! He even said this was the best beef tips he’d ever had. That is enormous coming from him. I still cannot believe how something with only 2 ingredients could be soooo good. My sister commented that she now has another dish she can add to her very limited repertiore. We were all amazed how tender the meat was and the wonderful flavor it had. I started to make egg noodles to serve it over (which would be another wonderful way to serve it), but opted to follow the recipe as is. I cannot stop praising this recipe enough, not to mention the versitility of it (add veggies and you get beef stew or mushrooms and sour cream for beef stroganoff and on and on). Sorry to be so wordy, but this is toooo good not to expound on. This was the first of many, many more times I’ll be making this recipe. Everyone needs to try it. You WILL be amazed. Thanks so much for such wonderful down to earth, easy and delicious recipes you give us. Your website is now on my favorites list and I check it out daily. Going to make your chicken stew next week. Can hardly wait!!!! Keep those wonderful recipes coming!!!
It’s raining here in Florida today so I decided to make this for dinner today.
I just fixed this for my family and dumped some canned mushrooms and about a tablespoon of corvoisier cooked it on high for about 4 hours and the meat turned out tender and delicious, even the one who only likes to eat the part of the chicken called the nugget liked it. Thanks for this cheap and delicious recipe.
Thank you so much for that story! It brought tears to my eyes. I grew up the same way and I am so blessed that my children won’t have to. Thank you again! *tear*
