This recipe requires more ingredients than I usually like to work with, but the result makes it worthwhile. Plus, the leftovers freeze beautifully. I like to cook the whole recipe and then divide up the leftovers into single servings before freezing using my Food Saver.
This recipe is not quick cooking like stir-fry so less tender cuts of meat can be used.

Ingredients
• ½ cup soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp toasted sesame oil
• ½ cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 Tbsp ginger, peeled and finely chopped
• 2-4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2½ to 3 lb beef roast* or stew meat
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• ¼ to ½ cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup beef stock**​
• 2 tsp vinegar
• 1 cup carrots, julienned
​
Instructions
1. Prepare medium crockpot by using cooking spray or liner. Set to low and start.
2. Whisk together in small bowl the soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, ginger and garlic until thoroughly combined; pour into crockpot.
3. In large zip bag, toss the beef with flour to coat thoroughly; discard bag and extra flour.
4. In large skillet, heat about 3 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat. Add about half the beef, stirring to brown each piece. Transfer to crockpot and repeat with more oil and remaining beef.
5. Add stock to skillet, heat to boiling while scraping up any bits on the skillet bottom. Add to crockpot, gently stir to combine. Cover and cook on low setting up to 10 hours until beef is tender. Start checking after 8 hours.
6. Add carrots and vinegar to crockpot, stir and cook an additional 30 minutes.
7. Serve with rice or noodles. Garnish with julienned green onions or sesame seeds,
​​
Tip
• The soy sauce and the bouillon contain salt to taste before adding any extra.
​​​​
*If necessary, cut into 1½-inch pieces or ½-inch thick slices.
​
**If you don't have beef stock, try Better Than Bouillon.
I use it all the time and it adds great flavor.

Facts about Crockpot Mongolian Beef
​
​
​​​​
• Typically served over rice or noodles.
​
​
​
• High in protein in addition to zinc, iron, vitamin B12 and more.
​
​
​
• Known for the savory, sweet, and slightly sticky sauce that's made with
garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce, and ginger.
​
​
​
• It's not a traditional Mongolian dish.
​
​
​
• Since it's cooked in the crockpot, the beef has a longer time to cook so it's
tender and flavorful.
