Ingredients
- 2 pounds of eye round steak
- 1 thinly sliced onion
- 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms
- 2 cups of beef broth
- 2 minced cloves of garlic
- 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour (optional for thickening)
Instructions
Season the steak:
- Season the eye round steak with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and dried thyme.
Layer ingredients:

- Next, position the seasoned steak on top of the vegetables.
Add liquid:
- Pour the beef broth over the steak and vegetables.
- Add the minced garlic for extra flavor.
Slow cook:
- Cover your slow cooker and set it to the low heat setting.
- Allow it to cook for 6-8 hours or until the steak is tender enough to be easily shredded with a fork.
- If you desire a thicker gravy, you can whisk 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour with a bit of water and mix it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
Shred and serve:
- Once fully cooked, use two forks to shred the steak directly in the slow cooker, combining it with the mushrooms and onions.
- Serve this delectable slow-cooked eye round steak and mushroom mixture over cooked rice, creamy mashed potatoes, or alongside some crusty bread.
