Sparkling Beef Tips

Tender, flavorful beef tips slow-cooked in a unique sauce made with cream of mushroom soup and 7UP. The soda adds a subtle sweetness and helps tenderize the meat beautifully.

Instructions

  1. 1

    In the bottom of your crockpot, add and mix together the cream of mushroom soup, 7UP (or Sprite), and dry onion soup mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    If using a whole roast, cut it into serving-sized pieces, trimming off excess fat. If using precut stew meat, you can skip this step.

  3. 3

    Place the meat pieces into the sauce mixture in the crockpot, stirring to coat all pieces evenly.

  4. 4

    Cover with the lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours, until the beef is fork-tender and easily shreds.

  5. 5

    Serve over rice, noodles, or potatoes. Family favorite is white rice!

  6. 6

    The sauce will be rich and flavorful - perfect for spooning over your chosen starch.
