      At what, point do I freeze the Steak Bites? Before cooking and if so do I include all of the ingredients? If after how long can I freeze it for?

      Thanks,

      Hello! I wanted to say how great my steak came out! I am doing the 21day fix and looking for bulk ways of cooking meats and I LOVE my crockpot! I made steak using this method today and OMG it is PERFECT! This will be great for "chipotle" bowls and/or just a steak dinner throughout the week! Thanks!!

      We have steak fondue every Christmas Eve with different dipping sauces but this year due to family health issues I'm going to try to make it easier(fondue is fun but just won't work this year). This looks perfect, I can do the meat bites ahead of time in the crock pot and we can still use our fondue forks to grab the meat pieces and drag them through our favorite dips(-: Thanks!

      I just put this in the crockpot. I am not much of a cook and can use all the help I can get. Just a question - it seems like a very small amount of liquid for so much meat. Is it enough for the full 4 pounds? I have read above not to stir and that the meat will be tasty underneath the layers too - even though seasoning on top. I am really trying to make my family a nice meal tonight even though a lack the cooking skills!!!! Thank you!

      I used 2# stew meat and added about 5 medium russet potatoes, cubed. The rest of the recipe I followed, with my crockpot on low for about 7 hours. The meat lost all its juices and was very dry, despite all the juice in the crockpot. It looked gray and gross, not like the pictures here. There was also zero flavor going on.

      This recipe was delicious! The broth was superb. I thicken the broth just slightly and dabbed my cheesy, bacon sliced potatoes in the juices, so good. I used an English steak instead of round steak. Thanks for the recipe, I'll be making this often.
