Slow Cooker Beef Neck Bones and Gravy

Description

Beef neck bones are a Southern staple recipe. I couldn’t find a recipe online, so I created this one on my own by pulling from some of my favorite oxtail, roast, and pork neck bone recipes. Turned out yummy so I thought I’d share. Serve over steamed rice and peas or mashed potatoes.
