This recipe is part of the 20 Slow Cooker Freezer Packs from Costco for $150 meal plan. Note that this is written as a single recipe, but is doubled in the Costco meal plan, so you will have enough ingredients to make 2 packs.
This recipe is your basic roast ingredients…just using stew meat! Had to get a little creative to use up the stew meat in the plan! Enjoy!

We had this today. It was a bit dry and bland. We will be adding some broth and Tabasco the next time we make it. Are you sure that you didn’t switch the Beef Stew and Italian Stew Roast recipes? The Beef Stew calls for 1 tbsp of Italian seasoning while the Italian Beef Stew only calls for 1 tsp.

We don’t add any liquid? Just double checking. I’ve never used crock pot with out liquid.
Jessica says
Agreed, no liquid? It seems odd. There are a couple others that don’t have liquid either. Do we just add broth?
Crystal says
Just wondering if we are supposed to add broth to any of these recipes? I have never used a crockpot before and I see that I have tons of remaining broth from the grocery list after I finished making up all the packs.
Jenn K says
Not all of them have broth as the meat (and sometimes apples) create enough juice without it. However, you can always add some if you desire.
Kristi says
This was the first recipe we have tried from this website and I was severly disappointed. The meal was dry, the potatoes turned black and the meat was flavorless. There was no liquid added which is odd for a crockpot meal, maybe if more was added for flavor and liquid this would be better.
