Scale
Ingredients:
- 4 beef shoulder chops (about 2–2.5 pounds total)
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 1 (10.5-ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
- ½ cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Season the beef chops: Season the beef chops with garlic powder and black pepper.
- Sear the beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sear the beef chops for 2–3 minutes per side until browned. This step is optional but adds flavor.
- Prepare the ranch mixture: In a small bowl, whisk together the ranch seasoning, cream of mushroom soup, and beef broth until smooth.
- Layer and cook: Layer the beef chops in the slow cooker and pour the ranch mixture over the top. Cover and cook on low for 7–8 hours or on high for 4–5 hours, until the beef is fork-tender.
- Serve: Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles and garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
