Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the beef stew meat with salt and pepper, and brown it in the skillet for about 2-3 minutes per side. Work in batches if necessary.
Transfer the browned beef into the crock pot.
In the same skillet, sautΓ© the diced onion and minced garlic for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Deglaze the skillet with 1/2 cup of the beef broth, scraping the bottom to release the browned bits, and then pour the mixture into the crock pot.
Add the remaining beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and mushrooms (if using) into the crock pot. Stir everything to combine.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the beef is tender.
In the last 15 minutes of cooking, mix the cornstarch and water together to create a slurry. Stir it into the crock pot to thicken the gravy.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve the beef tips over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
