- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions
- Coat the interior of a slow cooker with non-stick spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Layer diced potatoes evenly across the bottom of the crockpot, creating a foundational base for the casserole.
- Arrange thinly sliced beef sirloin over the potato layer, ensuring even distribution of meat.

- Drizzle olive oil, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce over the ingredients to enhance moisture and flavor.
- Sprinkle salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and paprika across the entire mixture, ensuring balanced seasoning.
- Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6-7 hours, allowing ingredients to meld and tenderize.
- During the final 30 minutes of cooking, generously top the casserole with provolone and mozzarella cheeses.
- Once cheese is melted and ingredients are thoroughly cooked, turn off the crockpot.
- Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes to allow flavors to settle and ensure easy serving.
- Serve hot directly from the crockpot, scooping out layers of cheesy, savory goodness.
Notes
- Prep potatoes ahead by soaking in cold water to remove excess starch, ensuring a crispier texture and preventing discoloration.
- Consider using low-sodium beef broth to control salt levels, making the dish more diet-friendly for those watching sodium intake.
- Swap beef sirloin with lean turkey or chicken for a lighter protein option that still delivers incredible flavor and nutrition.
- Customize cheese blend by experimenting with sharp cheddar, Swiss, or pepper jack to create unique taste profiles that match personal preferences.
