Elevate your comfort food game with this Sussex Style Steak with Mushrooms, a rich and hearty crock pot recipe that's perfect for cozy dinners.

Infused with fresh thyme, this dish develops deep, aromatic flavors during the six-hour cook time.

With minimal prep and the magic of slow cooking, this recipe is a must-try for satisfying meals that feel like a warm hug.
Season the beef chuck steak with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer the steak to the crock pot.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium, add the sliced onion, minced garlic, and mushrooms. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant.
Transfer the onion, garlic, and mushrooms to the crock pot, spreading them evenly over the steak.
Pour the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce into the crock pot. Place the sprigs of fresh thyme on top.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the steak is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the steak and vegetables from the crock pot using a slotted spoon, and set aside. Discard the thyme sprigs.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the cooking liquid in the crock pot, and turn the heat to high. Let the sauce thicken for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Return the steak and vegetables to the crock pot to heat through for another 5 minutes.
Serve the Sussex Style Steak with Mushrooms warm over mashed potatoes, rice, or alongside crusty bread. Enjoy!
