Ohhh yes—this is pure cozy comfort food 🥄🤍
Here’s a tender, fall-apart slow cooker cube steak with rich gravy that basically cooks itself.
Slow Cooker Cube Steaks with Gravy
Ingredients
- 4–6 cube steaks
- Salt & black pepper
- 1 packet brown gravy mix (or onion gravy)
- 1 packet onion soup mix
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1½ cups beef broth (or water)
- 1 medium onion, sliced (optional but excellent)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (optional, but adds depth)
- 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water (optional, for thicker gravy)
Instructions
- Season the steaks
Lightly salt and pepper both sides of the cube steaks. - Layer in the slow cooker
Place sliced onions (if using) in the bottom. Lay cube steaks on top. - Make the gravy
In a bowl, whisk together:- Brown gravy mix
- Onion soup mix
- Cream of mushroom soup
- Beef broth
- Worcestershire sauce
- Pour & cook
Pour gravy over the steaks.- Low: 6–8 hours (best for super tender meat)
- High: 3–4 hours
- Thicken if needed
If you want thicker gravy, stir in cornstarch slurry during the last 30 minutes and leave the lid slightly cracked.
Serve It With
- Mashed potatoes 🥔 (classic move)
- Egg noodles
- Rice
- Biscuits or crusty bread for gravy-dipping
Easy Add-Ins / Variations
- Add sliced mushrooms for extra umami
- Swap cream of mushroom for cream of chicken

If you want a from-scratch gravy version (no packets) or an oven or Instant Pot twist, just say the word 😄
