Equipment

  • slow cooker

Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup reduced-sodium beef broth divided
  • ½ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar packed
  • 5 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
  • 1-2 tablespoons Gochujang sauce
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 3-4 pound boneless beef chuck roast cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1-2 tablespoons cornstarch depending on desired sauce thickness

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together ½ cup beef broth and next 9 ingredients (up to roast).
  • Place cubed roast into a slow cooker. A 4 or 5 quart slow cooker works well.
  • Pour sauce over cubed meat.
  • Cover and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and remaining ¼ cup broth.
  • Stir cornstarch mixture into the slow cooker.
  • Cover and cook on high heat for an additional 30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.

Notes

I find Gochujang sauce near the Sriracha in my local supermarket. If you can't find it, you can substitute a mixture that consists of a little Sriracha, a dash of additional soy sauce, and a little additional brown sugar to taste instead. Nutrition facts are estimates.
