Simple Beef Tips with Gravy
My family loves comfort food all year long. When the winter months hit here in Cincinnati, we eat comfort foods almost every night. We make our Simple Salisbury Steaks and Slow Cooker Meatloaf the most. I guess you could say we like our meat and taters, lol.
I like quick and easy meals. If I do not have the ingredients on hand for meals that are simple, we end up eating take-out. So, these Simple Beef Tips and Gravy are one of my go to meals especially during the winter months when everyone is craving comfort food. The flavor is awesome and every family member devours it. This dish is so super quick. I can have everything made and on the table in just a little over a half hour.
Some of my kids like onions, some do not. I make this recipe with French Onion Soup… it hides the onions from those picky eaters. None of my kiddos like mushrooms so I usually make two pots and add mushrooms for the hubby.
For this recipe, I use a better cut of beef like sirloin. It can cook quickly and not be too tough. If you plan to use a cheaper cut of beef for your beef tips, you will need to let your dish cook longer. I would say around 2 hours to get your meat tender.
I have served our Beef Tips with Gravy on top of mashed potatoes and also on egg noodles. Both ways are always so delish.
INGREDIENTS
2 lb Sirloin
10 oz Condensed French Onion Soup
1 cup Water
2 packets Brown Gravy Mix
2 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
4 tbsp Ketchup
DIRECTIONS
Cut sirloin into bite sized pieces (about 3/4 inch).
Heat a little olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat.
Cook sirloin until browned (about 5-10 minutes)
In a bowl, conbine remaining ingredients and whisk until blended.
Add liquid to skillet and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium low and allow to simmer until sauce is thickened and meat is tender.
Serve over mashed potatoes or egg noodles.

Doesn’t this require rolling the meat in flour before browning for the gravy to thicken up?
So easy, and SO good!
