This slow-cooker recipe comes directly from the heart of a wonderful Texas cook who makes the best brisket in the world! Yay, Papa Louis! He shared it with me years ago, via my sister (his daughter-in-law). I change it from time to time by adding ingredients to make it more Mexican (serve it with tortillas), or leave it as is and serve it with fresh rolls.
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds beef stew meat
- 2 (10.75 ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup
- 1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix
- 1 onion, minced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 (8 ounce) package sliced cremini mushrooms
- 1 cup ginger ale
Directions:
Place beef in a slow cooker. Stir cream of mushroom soup, dry onion soup mix, onion, garlic, cremini mushrooms, and ginger ale in a bowl until thoroughly combined and pour the mixture over the beef.
Cover, set slow cooker to High, and cook for 1 hour; turn cooker down to Low and cook for 5 more hours.
