Equipment

Ingredients

2 pounds cubed chuck roast or stew meat
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cracked pepper
2 tablespoons oil divided
1 medium onion chopped
2 cups beef broth
3 tablespoon beef bouillon granules
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon xanthan gum

Instructions

Season the chuck roast with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large dutch oven over high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned on all sides. Work in batches if needed so that you don't overcrowd the pan.
Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan. Add the onion to the pot, stirring often, until softened about 5 minutes.
Add the seared beef, broth, bouillon granules, Worcesetershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder to the pot and stir well to combine.
Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook, covered, for 1 ½ hours or until beef is tender.
Remove ½ cup of the beef broth from the pan into a small bowl. Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the top and whisk well to combine.
Pour the liquid back into the pot and stir well.
Continue cooking for 30 minutes to thicken.
Serve the beef tips and gravy over mashed cauliflower.

Notes

You may skip the beef bouillon, garlic powder, and onion powder, and use a packet of onion soup mix instead, though it may be a bit saltier.

The nutrition information is calculated based on this serving 6. Servings were not measured by volume, just divided equally into 6 portions. The nutrition information is automatically calculated and is calculating the full amount of the gravy in this recipe, which is why the sodium is so high. Reduce the amount of gravy you serve to reduce the sodium and use low sodium beef broth, if desired.
