Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 lbs sirloin or stew beef, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for browning, optional)
  • Chopped green onions (for garnish)
  • Optional: red pepper flakes for heat

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Brown the steak bites in olive oil over medium-high heat for 2–3 minutes to seal in flavor (optional).
  • In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, black pepper, and cornstarch until smooth.

Cooking

  • Add beef and the sauce to the slow cooker. Stir to coat the meat evenly.
  • Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or on high for 2–3 hours, until beef is fork-tender and the sauce thickens.

Serving

  • Garnish with chopped green onions before serving. This dish pairs well with rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes.

Notes

Searing the meat first adds extra flavor but is optional. If you're short on time, you can skip this step. Adjust the sweetness or spice by using more or less honey or adding red pepper flakes. For best results, ensure that your beef is cut evenly to promote even cooking.
