Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Mulligan Stew
There’s something wonderfully comforting about a recipe that doesn’t need a long ingredient list to make everyone gather around the table. This Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Mulligan Stew is exactly that kind of meal.
It’s hearty, humble, filling, and wonderfully old-fashioned. Ground beef, potatoes, onions, and tomatoes are all you need to create a rich, tomato-based stew that slowly cooks until the potatoes are tender and the onions practically melt into the broth.
And I love how uncomplicated this one is. No complicated prep, no long list of spices, and no need to fuss over the slow cooker once everything is layered inside. Just brown the beef, add everything to the slow cooker, and let time do the work!

What Is Mulligan Stew?
Mulligan stew is the kind of dish that celebrates simplicity and making a satisfying meal from what you have available.
This slow cooker version keeps that spirit front and center with just four main ingredients: ground beef, russet potatoes, yellow onions, and canned tomatoes.
The ingredients are layered into the slow cooker rather than stirred together at the beginning. As everything cooks, the tomatoes create a rich broth around the beef and vegetables, while the potatoes become soft and tender and the onions cook down until they’re wonderfully mellow.
It’s the kind of dinner that feels especially good on a chilly evening.
