Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Beef chuck roast
- 0.5 cups Soy sauce
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 2 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 4 count Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Cold water
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds
- 2 count Green onions, sliced
Instructions
Cut the beef chuck roast into large chunks, about 2-3 inches wide, and trim any excess fat if needed.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the teriyaki sauce.
Place the beef chunks into the slow cooker, ensuring they are spread out evenly. Pour the teriyaki sauce mixture over the beef, covering it completely.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on LOW for 7-8 hours or HIGH for 4-5 hours. The beef should be tender and easily pull apart when done.
Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Set the shredded beef aside.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water to create a slurry. Add this mixture to the liquid remaining in the slow cooker, stirring to combine.
Turn the slow cooker to HIGH and let the sauce cook and thicken for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and mix it with the thickened teriyaki sauce until well coated.
Serve the slow-cooked teriyaki beef over steamed white rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
