What Are Beef Tips?

Beef tips are small chunks of beef that become wonderfully tender when cooked slowly. The best cuts for this recipe include:

  • Beef stew meat
  • Chuck roast cut into cubes
  • Sirloin tips
  • Round roast pieces

Chuck roast is often the top choice because its marbling breaks down during cooking, creating juicy, flavorful bites of beef.
