Ingredients
For the Garlic Butter Ribeye:
– **1 lb ribeye steak** – cut into large chunks
– **Salt and pepper** – to taste
– **4 tbsp butter**
– **4 cloves garlic** – minced
– **1/2 tsp dried thyme**
– **1/2 tsp dried rosemary**
– **1/2 cup beef broth** (for moisture and richness)
– **Fresh parsley** – chopped, for garnish
For the Parmesan Mashed Potatoes:
– **6 medium potatoes** – peeled and cubed
– **1/2 cup milk** (more if needed)
– **1/4 cup butter**
– **1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese**
– **Salt and pepper** – to taste
– **Chives or green onions** – chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- **Prepare the Garlic Butter Ribeye:**
– Season the ribeye chunks with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tbsp of butter and sear the ribeye on all sides for 2-3 minutes until browned. Transfer to the slow cooker.
– Add the remaining butter, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, and beef broth to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on **low for 5-6 hours** or **high for 3-4 hours** until the ribeye is tender and infused with garlic butter flavor.
- **Prepare the Parmesan Mashed Potatoes:**
– About 30 minutes before the ribeye is done, boil the cubed potatoes in salted water until tender (about 15-20 minutes). Drain and return to the pot.
– Add the milk, butter, and Parmesan cheese. Mash until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency with additional milk if needed and season with salt and pepper.
- **Serve & Garnish:**
– Serve the garlic butter ribeye over a bed of Parmesan mashed potatoes. Spoon a bit of the slow-cooker garlic butter sauce over the meat for extra flavor. Garnish with fresh parsley, chives, or green onions.
This dish is a fantastic combination of tender beef, creamy potatoes, and bold flavors—perfect for a cozy night in!
