Crockpot Beef and Broccoli

Ingredients:

1 lb. boneless, beef chuck roast, sliced into thin strips
1 cup beef consumme or beef broth
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
1 tbsp. sesame oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp. cornstarch
4 tbsp. sauce (from the crockpot after dish is cooked)
Frozen broccoli florets (as many as desired, I believe I used almost 2 cups)
White rice, cooked

Instructions:

  1. In the insert of the crockpot, whisk together beef consume, soy sauce, dark brown sugar, sesame oil, and garlic.
  2. Gently place your slices of beef in the liquid and toss to coat.
  3. Turn crockpot on low and cook for 6 hours.
  4. When done, in a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and cooking liquid to create a slurry, pour into crockpot, stir to mix well. Cook on low for an additional 30 minutes to thicken up the sauce.
  5. Toss in your broccoli florets then serve hot over white rice.
*Note about cooking time: Your crockpot may differ in temperature than mine, I suggest cooking this for 4 hours on your first go-round of this dish. 6 hours in the crockpot seems to be giving a lot of people “shredded” beef instead of slices, so decrease cooking time by 2 hours and go from there. Mine turned out fine with 6 hours.

David's Crock Pot - Pot Roast

Ingredients:
3-4 lbs of chuck roast
1 bulb of garlic
2 large sweet onions
1 lb of sliced mushrooms
1 lb of baby raw baby carrots
1 stalk of celery.
1 pack of Lipton Onion mix or Beef of Onion mix

Turn crockpot to high and place carrots and onion mix in the crock pot.   Let the carrots cook while you prep.  This will allow the carrots to cook longer resulting in softer carrots.

Chop the garlic,  Place 2/3 of the garlic in the crock pot and place the remaining garlic to the side.
Chop 1 onion in large wedges and place in the crock pot.
Chop the celery stalk into 1 inch piece and place in the crock pot.
Place half the mushrooms in the crock pot.

Cut the fat off the beef to your liking.  Cut the beef into large chunks.
Heat the remaining garlic in a pan.
Sear the sides of the roast on all sides.
Pour the garlic and beef into the crock pot.

Turn crock pot to low and set for 6 hours.

About 2-3 hours into cooking the dish will reduce allowing the remaining onion and mushrooms to be added.
