Toss stew meat in flour and brown in a pan. Don’t have time for this extra step? You can add the stew meat straight to the Crockpot and it will cook down just fine. Add the beef stew packet of spices, water, beef broth, and tomato sauce to a mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Add peeled veggies to the bottom of the Crockpot. Then add the stew meat. Cover with the sauce. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.
