- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Cut the beef into bite-sized chunks and halve the baby potatoes. This ensures even cooking and easy serving.
- Add to Slow Cooker: Place the beef and halved baby potatoes into the slow cooker pot, distributing them evenly.
- Mix Garlic Butter Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and paprika until well combined.
- Coat Beef and Potatoes: Pour the garlic butter mixture over the beef and potatoes in the slow cooker. Stir gently to ensure all pieces are evenly coated with the flavorful sauce.
