Enjoy delicious Beef Tips and Gravy on top of mashed potatoes or buttered noodles! One pan and minimal prep makes this a great dinner for 2.
Heat oil on High in a large Dutch oven or soup pot until very hot, but not smoking. Add stew meat and chopped onions; cook, stirring often for 8-10 minutes. Beef should be well browned on all sides; onions should be tender.
Add Worcestershire sauce, black pepper and garlic powder to pan. Stir to combine. Pour beef broth into pan; stir to combine. Bring liquid to a boil, then reduce heat to a low simmer. Put lid on the pan. Let beef cook (covered) about 90 minutes, or until beef is fork-tender. Stir it a couple of time while cooking. Check it at about 60 minutes. If too much liquid has cooked out, add a tiny bit more broth (or water) to the pan, and stir it in. When you're sure the beef is fork-tender, make the gravy.
Place ¼ cup flour in measuring cup. Add enough water to measure 1 cup. Use a fork to blend flour/water together until smooth & lump-free. This is a "slurry". Remove lid from pan; turn heat to High. Once liquid begins to boil, slowly add about half the slurry, stirring well while adding, to combine it with remaining liquid in pan. Continue to slowly add slurry until gravy has thickened to desired consistency. NOTE: You may not need all of the slurry to achieve a thick gravy.
Once gravy has thickened, remove pan from the heat and serve over hot, buttered egg noodles, rice, OR mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
NOTE: Caloric calculation was made only for beef tips and gravy. Potatoes, rice or noodles are not included in final calculation.
