Description

These Slow Cooker Rosemary Balsamic Beef Tips are incredibly tender with a savory, tangy sauce
that’s perfectly balanced by the earthy flavor of rosemary. The slow cooking process allows the beef
to absorb every layer of flavor, resulting in a rich and satisfying dish that feels both rustic and elegant.

Tips

• Sirloin tips or chuck roast work best for tenderness.
• Fresh rosemary provides the strongest aroma, but dried rosemary works well.
• Add a tablespoon of butter at the end for extra richness.
• Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, buttered noodles, or polenta.
• Leftovers taste even better the next day.

Correction

• If the sauce is too tangy, add more brown sugar or a splash of cream.
• If the sauce is too thin, add more cornstarch slurry and cook longer.
• If the beef is tough, continue cooking until it becomes tender.
