  7. Cover and cook on LOW setting for 7 to 10 hours, until the beef is tender.
  8. One hour before serving, preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (218°C).
  9. Remove the meat and vegetable mixture from the slow cooker and transfer it into a shallow 2-1/2-quart baking dish.
  10. Prepare the biscuit topping by mixing 2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 3 teaspoons baking powder.
