Instructions
 

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Begin by placing the chuck roast into your slow cooker, ensuring it's centered for even cooking.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, beef broth, minced garlic, minced ginger, sesame oil, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.
  • Pour the sauce evenly over the chuck roast in the slow cooker, ensuring the beef is completely coated.
  • Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.
  • After the cook time, shred the beef with two forks if it easily pulls apart; remove and place on a cutting board.
  • Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and stir into the sauce, letting it soak for a few minutes.
  • Serve the Slow Cooker Korean Beef garnished with sliced green onions, and enjoy!

Notes

Best served over rice or with fresh vegetables and pairs well with sides like Korean Cucumber Salad.
