Yummy and tender and ready to eat! This is how it looks coming out of the crockpot.
Looks good enough to eat to me! This was a delicious hearty meal that will be almost as good as any restaurant.
This recipe was definitely a family favorite that we will be doing again. It is a great way to get a great take meal done at home for 1/2 the cost for the whole family!
I ended up making this on the stove top because I didn’t get it in the crock in time for dinner. It was amazing! Thanks so much.
My fiance, Henry, loves Mongolian beef and I have been looking for just the right recipe. I just turned on the crockpot and I’m so excited for dinner tomorrow!
Did you use just brown sugar (I noticed in the photo it’s light brown sugar) or dark brown sugar? Also, did you add chilli flakes? It looks like it in one of the photos. This looks delicious, I can’t wait to try it.
This reminds me of the mongolian beef I order in my favorite chinese restaurant. Looks delicious! Will definitely give this a shot.Being bake to cook it through the slow cooker is definitely a plus! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
I know this recipe was posted a while ago but I just tried it last night and omg…it was delish. Super easy to make. I had all of the ingredients on hand already and it turned out just like the pic. The sauce turned into a glaze type consistency and the beef was super tender. Thanks for sharing this.
While this approach may seem like it leaves no time for celebration, that isn’t
necessarily true. Are they starting to infringe on your personal space.
This gives you the chance to just enjoy quiet time and not have to talk if you do not feel like
engaging in conversation.
wtf does this mean
Did not turn out. Huge sticky mess. I think I used too much cornstarch as I tried to double the batch. Very disappointing.
Super easy and super delicious! I’m listing this as one of my favorites things tr make for dinner. 🙂

This recipe looks great! Do you have the nutritional info for this dish?
Do you cut the meat up before putting it in the crockpot or after its done??
Been making your recipe for over two years and it always comes out perfect.
Husband loves it!
