Step-by-Step Instructions for Garlic Butter Beef Bites
  1. Cut the beef chuck roast into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour over beef cubes and toss to coat evenly.
  3. Layer halved baby potatoes at the bottom of the slow cooker. Add seasoned beef cubes on top.
  4. Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over low heat, then pour over beef and potatoes. Add beef broth until mostly submerged.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours until beef is tender and potatoes are fork-tender.
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
