Crock Pot Pepper Steak – Tender, Flavorful, and Effortless!

✅ Step 1: Prep the Ingredients

Slice the beef, onions, and bell peppers. Add them to your slow cooker.

✅ Step 2: Mix the Sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together:

  • Soy sauce
  • Beef broth
  • Brown sugar
  • Garlic
  • Ginger

Pour this flavorful mixture over the beef and veggies in the slow cooker.

✅ Step 3: Slow Cook to Perfection

  • Low: Cook for 6–7 hours
  • High: Cook for 3–4 hours

The beef becomes incredibly tender, and the peppers soak up all that umami-rich flavor.

✅ Step 4 (Optional): Thicken the Sauce

Want a thicker, glossy sauce?
Mix 2 tbsp cornstarch with 2 tbsp cold water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 20 minutes.
