Step-by-Step Instructions for Swamp Potatoes

Begin by washing and halving the baby potatoes, ensuring they're bite-sized for even cooking.
Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix and Cajun seasoning evenly over the potatoes, sausage, and green beans in the slow cooker. Use your hands or a spoon to toss everything together.
Carefully pour the beef broth into the slow cooker, making sure it covers the ingredients well. Stir to combine.
Dot the top of the mixture with pats of butter, allowing it to melt during cooking.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours until potatoes are fork-tender.
Once cooked, stir everything gently in the slow cooker to combine and serve immediately.
