Recipe View Cover the slow cooker and cook on Low for 8-10 hours, or on High for 4-5 hours, until the beef is fork-tender and the vegetables are cooked through. (Cook time: 8-10 hours on Low, or 4-5 hours on High)

For enhanced flavor, consider adding a splash of red wine or Worcestershire sauce to the soup mixture.
Experiment with different vegetables – sliced mushrooms, pearl onions, or sweet potatoes are excellent additions.
If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a tablespoon of cold water to form a slurry. Stir the slurry into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
To prevent the beef from drying out, ensure it is partially submerged in the liquid. If needed, add a bit more water or beef broth.
Searing the beef is a crucial step! Don't skip it. It adds so much flavor.
If you don't have cream of mushroom soup, you can use cream of celery or cream of chicken. Any cream soup will work.
