Time 6h10m

Tips:

  • For a more tender steak, use a flank steak, skirt steak, or chuck roast. These cuts of meat are less expensive and will become tender with the long, slow cooking process.
  • To enhance the flavor of the steak, marinate it for at least 30 minutes before cooking. A simple marinade can be made with olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger.
  • Brown the steak in a skillet over high heat before adding it to the slow cooker. This will help to develop a rich flavor and crust.
  • Add plenty of vegetables to the slow cooker. This will help to make the dish more nutritious and flavorful. Some good choices include bell peppers, onions, carrots, and celery.
  • Season the dish to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a bit of brown sugar or honey to balance out the flavors.
  • Cook the dish on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours. The longer you cook it, the more tender the steak will be.

Conclusion:

Slow cooker pepper steak is a delicious and easy meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. The steak is tender and juicy, and the vegetables are cooked to perfection. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
