Instructions

In a crockpot, combine the sliced beef, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Stir to coat the beef well.
Cover and cook on low for 240-300 minutes or until the beef is tender.
About 30 minutes before serving, add the broccoli florets to the crockpot.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with water and stir it into the crockpot.
Serve the beef and broccoli over cooked rice.

Notes

Slice the beef thinly against the grain for the best tenderness. You can add other vegetables like bell peppers or snow peas for extra color and nutrition.
