No Peek Beef Tips are the ultimate comfort food. A 5-ingredeint recipe that is a family favorite. Easy to customize with oven, slow cooker, and Instant Pot instructions.
My No Peek Beef Tips are the ultimate comfort food.
Slow cooked beef that falls apart and is fork tender. A rich and flavorful gravy that pairs perfectly with the meat and warm mashed potatoes.
My family loves this recipe, an I have made it for years.
Typically, I made this recipe in the oven, but on days that I can't be home or need dinner in a hurry I use my slow cooker or instant pot (pressure cooker).
I have carefully tested this recipe to be made in either the oven, slow cooker, or pressure cooker with delicious success.
Ingredeints
- beef stew meat - I like to use beef for No Peek Beef Tips, but pork and venison work well too.
- cream of mushroom soup - I use a canned soup, but if you have a homemade version you love like this homemade condensed cream of mushroom soup from Culinary Hill.
- packet of brown gravy mix
- dry onion soup mix
- reduced-sodium beef broth
- mashed potatoes or rice for serving - the gray is delicious and I always serve my beef tips with rice or mashed potatoes. Egg noodles work great as well!
- dutch oven - make sure it is oven safe!
Instructions
Testing different cooking methods is important because it gives variation when cooking. Sometimes, I don't have the time for my oven, and making No Peek Beef Tips in my Instant Pot or slow cooker works for my schedule.
Each of these methods has been tested multiple times by me, and taste tested by my family!
Oven Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F. Place cubed meat in a 9 x 13 baking dish or a medium dutch oven.
- In a large bowl, mix the soup, gravy mix, onion soup mix and broth together. Pour over the meat and toss to combine.
- Cover the dish tightly with foil or cover with dutch oven lid. Bake for 3 hours. Remember, no peeking!
Slow Cooker Instructions
- Place beef in the slow cooker.
- In a medium bowl, mix remaining ingredients together.
- Pour over the beef and cover.
- Cook on low heat 7-8 hours or high heat for 4-5 hours.
Instant Pot Instructions
- Set pressure cooker to sauté setting. Add a tablespoon of oil to the instant pot.
- Add beef and brown on both sides.
- Mix remaining ingredients together in a medium bowl. Turn off the sauté function and pour contents of the bowl over the beef. Stir.
- Cover and set to not venting. Cook on high pressure for 20 minutes. Allow the pressure cooker to naturally release for 10 minutes before manually releasing the pressure. Serve .

Thank you, thank you! I am buried in beef tips from last year's beef quarter and the new one arrives in a month! This looks positively succulent!
Rebecca
This was so so tasty over mashed potatoes! I loved how tender the beef was and how easy this recipe was!
Katie
This was amazing & so easy! The beef was sooo tender. My whole family loved it. I doubled everything but the meat to make more gravy. Near the end, I soaked a (12 oz) package of medium egg noodles in hot water for about 10 minutes & drained them. I added them to the last 20-30 minutes. It turned out great, but if you want it less dry, I would add a little more water.
Ashley Lecker
Over egg noodles sounds incredible!!

Best and easiest Beef Tips I’ve ever had! Definitely keeping this recipe

Have you tried the instant pot method without searing the beef first? I know that would lock in some great flavor, but just trying to cut down on prep time!
