Get set to have fun in the kitchen and make a yummy meal that everyone will love!
Gather your ingredients, including beef tips and onions, and any optional flavorings you'd like to include.
Place the stew meat in a bowl and generously season it with salt, pepper, white pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and season salt.
Adjust the amount of spices or use milder alternatives to suit your taste.
You can experiment with alternative flours, such as whole wheat or gluten-free flour, based on dietary preferences or restrictions.
Searing the beef tips in a Dutch oven enhances flavor by caramelizing the surface, creating a rich and savory taste in the final dish.
Introduce aromatic ingredients like garlic and onions to the Dutch Oven. Carrots, onions, and potatoes are classic choices, but you can customize with your favorite vegetables.
If needed, soy sauce or balsamic vinegar can be used as substitutes for Worcestershire sauce, adjusting the quantities to taste.
The water and cornstarch mixture serves as a thickening agent for the gravy, creating a luscious consistency in the Dutch Oven Beef Tips.
If unable to stir frequently, omit cornstarch initially. In the last 10 minutes, add a slurry (1/3 cup water + 1 tbsp cornstarch) and stir often to thicken the gravy.
Regular stirring every 8-10 minutes during the simmering process helps prevent sticking and ensures even cooking.
You can freeze the beef tips for later use. Allow them to cool completely, store in airtight containers, and freeze for up to three months. Thaw and reheat when ready to enjoy.
Feel free to customize the recipe based on your preferences, and have fun experimenting with different herbs and spices to create your signature Dutch Oven Beef Tips!
