More helpful tips for you.

1. The beef tips should be covered while slow cooking to keep the moisture inside of the slow cooker. When the lid of off for a period of time the sauce get dried up. If yours get dry after four and a half hours of slow cooking you can stir in additional broth.
2. Slow cookers can cook at different rates which is why this recipe can take anywhere from five to six or more hours to completely cook. Five to six hours is common.
3. Your beef is done slow cooking when you are able to pull it apart or shred using two forks.
4. Allow the tips to sit in the slow cooker (turned off or set to warm) for 15 minutes before serving so that they can absorb more of the liquid and flavors before serving.
