Comfort Food: Slow Cooker French Onion Beef

This is so flavorful and satisfying -- perfect for a cold winter night. And better the next day!
I found this in a Betty Crocker publication that's sold in the supermarket checkout lane. But I get it in the mail because my Aunt Laura subscribes to it for me.
