1. 500–700g beef stew meat (chuck or braising beef works best)
2. 4 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped
3. 3 carrots, sliced into chunks
4. 1 onion, roughly chopped
5. 2 cups beef broth

Optional (but recommended): salt, pepper, garlic powder, or herbs for extra flavor

Step-by-Step Method

Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients

Start by prepping everything:

• Cut the beef into bite-sized chunks if not already done
• Peel and cube the potatoes
• Slice the carrots into thick pieces
• Chop the onion into large chunks

Keeping the vegetables slightly large helps them hold their shape during long cooking.

Step 2: Layer the Slow Cooker

Place the ingredients into your slow cooker in this order:

1. Potatoes at the bottom
2. Carrots and onions on top
3. Beef as the final layer

This layering helps the vegetables cook evenly while allowing the beef juices to drip down and flavor everything below.
