Slow Cooker Steak and Potato Soup

Slow Cooker Steak and Potato Soup is hearty and comforting!

This recipe for Slow Cooker Steak and Potato soup is pure comfort food. I had the idea to do steak and potato soup, a stick to your ribs, hearty man meal. I was researching other recipes and most of them looked like standard beef stew, but soupy. I did not go the beef stew route for my recipe. You do not have to use an expensive cut of steak for this recipe, in fact I used a cheap stew meat for this! I had planned add corn to this recipe but after I added the cream at the end, I thought this is perfect as is.

The combination of beef, potatoes, with thyme and garlic for the seasonings made this soup amazing. I add a cup of heavy cream at the end for more decadence. Below is the soup right before I switched it on to cook for 8 hours on low.

And here is the soup after stirring in the heavy cream at the end. Another great recipe for busy days, just stir and serve with bread! I wish I had my bread machine accessible, this is the perfect recipe to have the bread maker going at the same time.

The eight-hour cooking time is just enough time to cook the beef and potatoes perfectly.
