Beef tips browned with mushrooms and onions, simmered in wine and broth in your slow cooker. This dish is melt in your mouth delicious.
Make no mistake I am a meat lover to the core. Don’t get me wrong I love my veggies and I love seafood. Now that Lent is over I can enjoy this luxurious dish.
It is rich in flavor and oh so satisfying. With a bit of prep work you to can serve this to your family. I used a Merlot wine, but you can use any red that you like. Just make sure it is a wine that you would like to drink also.
Please what ever you do don’t use the cooking wine. They are full of stuff that wouldn’t make this dish taste good. If you are not a fan of wine, fine, just replace it with extra beef broth.
Either way this dish is so good. You will wonder why you haven’t make it earlier.
