• SUCCESS HINT: Although it's tempting, avoid peeking in the slow cooker during cooking. Lifting the lid lets steam escape, and steam helps with the cooking.
• TIME-SAVER: Browning the meat adds flavor and helps seel in the juices, but if you're short on time, you can skip this step.
• SERVE-WITH: Serve this Asian-influenced roast on a bed of hot cooked rice or Asian noodles, along with steamed sugar snap peas.
• NOTE: This is also excellent with Snap Pea Stir-Fry Veggie Mix.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium heat.
• Toss in minced garlic, and cook 2-3 minutes, or until lightly browned.
• Add chopped ginger, cook for another 2-3 minutes.
• Add beef, and stir often, cooking until meat is just browned, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix both packages of gravy with 3 cup water and bring to a boil in a saucepan over medium high heat.
• Add balsamic vinegar and worchesire sauce.
• Once meat is browned, transfer entire pan to slow cooker, including juices.
• Top with gravy mixture, coating evenly.
• Cook for 7-8 hours on low setting.
• I served this over mashed potatoes because it's all we had in the house, but it would work well with egg noodles aswell.
