Slow cooker mongolian beef is one of my favorite take out foods to make at home. And using the slow cooker makes it super easy.

I think Fall is my favorite season.  I was talking with a friend the other day how she was mourning the loss of summer and I told her I was ready to “hunker down.”  Turn on the furnace, wear sweaters and turn on the fire place.  She didn’t agree with me but we are still friends.  Although I have learned to embrace using my slow cooker in the summer, I really love using it in the Fall and winter.plate of slow cooker mongolian beef and rice

There is nothing than coming home from a day out and about and walking in and smelling the yumminess that has been cooking in my slow cooker all day.  It is even better that dinner is ready!!

I have another version of Mongolian Beef on the blog which is also delicious.  It is done on the stove top and the meat is lightly fried.  It’s a total winner but a little more work than this slow cooker version.

I used sirloin steak for this recipe and coated the sliced beef in cornstarch and lightly browned it before putting it in the slow cooker.  If  you are in a real hurry you can skip the cornstarch and browning part.

Let it cook for 4 hours on low, cook up a batch of rice and dinner is ready!

    I’d love to try your recipe but notice your sauce ingredients include 1 Tbsp. minced garlic and also 1/2 tsp. minced garlic. Should one of these be a different ingredient?

      Mary, good catch! That should be 1/2 tsp minced ginger. I have fixed the recipe. The garlic amount is correct.

        It looks like the two measurements for garlic are showing up instead of the ginger
        you mentioned. Looks like a good recipe.

    I don’t really see the point of the slow cooker for this. You have to dirty up a skillet to cook the meat, and basiclly let it sit in the sauce in the slow cooker for 4 hours. The non slower cooker method is quicker, you spend a few minutes cooking the sauce in the skillet.

      Sandy, The meat gets much more tender when cooked in a slow cooker than it does if you just stir fry it up in a pan but it definitely could be done the way you describe too. Whatever works best for you.

    Looks good! I make something very similar to this with pot roast in the slow cooker without the corn starch. After the pot roast is ready, I make a gravy with the liquids in a pan on the stove by adding some flour. My family loves it!

    Making this right now 🙂 Did you mean to say minced garlic twice in the sauce ingredients? Thanks.

    Looks like a really good recipe. You commented previously that one of the garlic measurements
    should be ginger. The recipe is still showing two measurements of garlic.
