For a thicker sauce, whisk 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.

    This recipe is a lifesaver on busy weeknights! I love that I can prep it ahead of time and just throw it in the slow cooker.

    I added some broccoli during the last hour, and it was a great addition.

    I found that cooking it on low for 5 hours made the beef incredibly tender. Will definitely make again!
