Begin by placing the beef stew meat in one corner of your slow cooker, keeping it well-defined from the baby Yukon potatoes you’ll place on the opposite side.

Sprinkle onion powder, garlic powder, and seasoned salt generously over the beef stew meat. Use clean hands to gently toss the meat.

Scatter the chopped garlic evenly over both the beef and potatoes. Cut the butter into small pads and place them atop the seasoned meat and vegetables.

Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or high for 4 hours.

Once cooking time is complete, carefully lift the lid and let the steam escape. Dish out generous portions of beef and potatoes, drizzling the garlic butter sauce over each serving.
