Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Add in the beef (may need to do this in batches), cook until meat is browned, stirring frequently. Transfer beef to 4 quart slow-cooker; season with salt and pepper. Add a little more oil to the skillet (if needed) and saute the onions for 4 minutes or until softened. Add in the garlic and saute 1 minute.
