How to Make Beef Tips and Gravy
Season. Season the beef tips with salt and pepper.
Sear. In a medium skillet, heat olive oil to medium-high heat. Sear the seasoned beef tips on both sides. Make sure to allow the skillet with oil to get hot before adding the meat, this will ensure a good sear!
Sauté. Reduce the heat to low, then add the onion and garlic. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, until the onion has softened.
Bring to a simmer. Add 1 cup of the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and beef bouillon, stirring till fully combine. Cover loosely with a lid.
Cook till tender. Continue cooking the beef tips, stirring occasionally, for 1 to 2 hours. The longer the beef tips simmer, the more tender they become. You can add a little more beef broth, if needed.
Make the gravy. Right before you are ready to serve, whisk to combine the gravy packets with the remaining 1 cup of low-sodium beef broth. Pour the gravy mixture into the skillet and stir to combine.
Thicken the gravy. Raise heat to medium and bring the gravy to a simmer, cooking for about 2 to 4 minutes, until the gravy has thickened.
