Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by thinly slicing the flank steak against the grain, aiming for uniform slices about 1/4 inch thick.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, ginger, and cornstarch. Whisk everything together until smooth and free of lumps.
  3. Place the sliced beef into the slow cooker, spreading it out evenly. Pour the prepared sauce over the beef, ensuring every slice is coated.
  4. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 3 hours. Avoid opening the lid during this time.
  5. Once cooking time is complete, check for tender beef pieces. Serve your Slow Cooker Mongolian Beef over rice, noodles, or in lettuce wraps, garnished with green onions.
