A Crockpot Smothered Flat Iron Steak with only five ingredients and four hours cook time.
When you are very busy, the crockpot is such a friend!
The Crockpot makes it tender!
This recipe cooks in 2 to 4 hours in the crockpot depending on if you cook on high or low. Either way, I have found the crockpot makes the meat really tender.
Make your own gravy topping!
I decided to create my gravy with a bottle of Balsamic dressing I had in the cabinet. It was tasty and we enjoyed it.

Merlinda, thanks for stopping by. It was really good with the Balsamic but next time we will indulge ourselves a bit with that other yummy gravy!
Kristen from The Road to Domestication says
I’m not sure I’ve heard of a flat iron steak before…but my hubby loves all kinds of steaks – looks like he would love this, too! (And I’m all for any kind of Crock Pot use!)
Shirley Wood says
I know, Kristen. I’m apparently behind in the flat iron steak world too. When I was researching how to cook it, I was surprised at how many people already knew. It was my daughter who told me about it.
Zan says
Looks delish! I want to try this out. I love all your recipes; you seem to be a great cook! I can tell from the looks of the recipes you share and from the pecan glazed green beans that I have tried!
Shirley Wood says
Zan, I’m so glad you enjoyed the pecan glazed green beans 🙂 I don’t cook every day but I have been cooking for over 36 years now. I love reading recipes and learning new good things to cook! I have a nice cookbook collection and enjoy reading through them also! Thanks for the compliment 🙂
Southern Angel says
That looks amazing.. and like something my husband might actually eat if I don’t tell him about the balsamic dressing lol.
Shirley Wood says
Thanks for stopping by Angel. Make it with the Creamed Vidalia Onion & Mushroom sauce instead. I’ve never met a man who would like that 🙂
Alli says
I’m always looking for new slow cooker recipes to cook for the family while at church on Sunday. We’ve grown too much to eat out after church! This one certainly fits the bill and my family will love it! Pinning!
Shirley Wood says
It’s a ‘good-un’ ! Alli. Let me know how you enjoy it.
Amanda Smith says
Steak and onions, nothing better. This sounds great! I am always looking for new crock pot recipes. This is getting pinned for the next time flat iron steak goes on sale. And if it doesn’t soon I may try it on a round steak. YUM!
Shirley Wood says
Ohhh, I’m sure that round steak would be good too, Amanda!
