Beef & Brocccoli Slow Cooker

Post by Chowhound »

slowcookerbroccolibeef4.jpg
1½ lb. boneless, beef chuck roast, sliced into thin strips
1 cup beef consumme or beef broth
½ cup low sodium soy sauce
⅓ cup dark brown sugar
1 tbsp. sesame oil
3 garlic cloves minced
2 tbsp cornstarch
Frozen Broccoli Florets, about 3 cups (used one 14 oz bag)
White or brown rice, cooked

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the beef consume, soy sauce, dark brown sugar, sesame oil, and garlic. Lay the beef strips in the crockpot and pour the sauce over, tossing the strips to coat. Turn the crockpot on low and cook for about 6 hours. You don't want to cook the beef too long or it will start to shred. When it is just about done, take 4 Tbsp of the sauce and whisk it in a small bowl with the cornstarch. Slowly stir this into the crockpot. The broccoli was added in at this point so that it could get heated through. You want to let it cook an additional 30 minutes so that the sauce can thicken and frozen broccoli can cook. You don't want to add the broccoli until the very end or it will be mushy. Serve over white rice and enjoy!!
