Put raw cubed beef in a slow cooker with these 3 ingredients. You won’t believe how good it tastes..
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prep the Base: If you are using the optional onion for extra flavor depth, scatter the diced pieces evenly across the bottom of your slow cooker liner.
- Add the Beef: Arrange your raw cubed beef uniformly right on top of the onions, matching the layout styled in
- Whisk the 3-Ingredient Sauce: In a small glass bowl or measuring cup, vigorously whisk together the ½ cup of low-sodium soy sauce, ½ cup of raw honey, and your minced fresh garlic until the honey is completely dissolved into the liquid.
- The Big Pour: Replicate the beautiful step shown in by pouring your glossy, garlic-speckled sauce mixture evenly over all the raw beef cubes. Give the ingredients a very gentle toss to ensure every piece is kissed by the glaze.
- Set and Forget: Cover the slow cooker tightly with its lid. Cook on LOW for 6 to 7 hours (recommended for maximum fork-tender texture) or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours if you are in a pinch for time.
- Thicken the Gravy (Optional Pro-Tip): If you prefer a thick, velvet-like glaze, ladle out ¼ cup of the hot liquid during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Whisk it with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to form a smooth slurry, stir it back into the pot, and let it bubble uncovered on high for 15 minutes.
- Garnish and Serve: Ladle the steaming, tender beef cubes over a fluffy bed of jasmine rice, quinoa, or garlic mashed potatoes. Spoon a generous amount of the leftover honey-garlic sauce over the top, scatter some fresh green onions and sesame seeds, and dive in! 🍽️🎉
