Directions

Brown the beef chunks in a skillet; you don't have to cook them, just get some nice caramelization on the sides of the chunks.

Toss everything but the peas into your crock pot. Set the slow cooker to low and cook for 5-6 hours, or until the meat is tender and the vegetables fully cooked. Add the peas in the last 15-30 minutes of cooking.
