Why You’ll Love This Crock Pot Mongolian Beef
To make Easy Crock Pot Mongolian Beef, you need specific ingredients and tools. Gathering the right items ensures a delicious meal prepared effortlessly.
To make this recipe, you’ll want a 6-quart slow cooker and I also recommend using slow cooker liners for easy cleanup.
Here’s everything you’ll need…
Ingredients for Mongolian Beef
- 1 pound flank steak (sliced thinly against the grain)
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- Chopped green onions for garnish
How to Make Crock Pot Mongolian Beef
Begin by slicing the flank steak into thin strips. This helps the meat cook evenly.
In a bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. This sauce will add flavor to your beef. Preheat your slow cooker while you get everything ready.
Once your beef and sauce are ready, place the sliced beef into the slow cooker. Pour the sauce over the beef, ensuring it is well coated.
This is where the slow cooker does the hard work…
Slow Cooker Tips
Set your slow cooker to low heat for 4-6 hours or high heat for 2-3 hours. Cooking on low heat allows the beef to become tender and soak up more flavors.
During cooking, you can stir occasionally if you want. This helps mix the flavors. Check the beef at the end of the cooking time. It should be tender and flavorful.

Serving and Storage Suggestions
After cooking, it’s time to finish your dish. Stir the beef again to mix well.
Serve your Mongolian beef over steamed rice or noodles. This makes an excellent base for the tasty sauce.
Garnish with chopped green onions. You can also sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added flavor and crunch. Enjoy your meal with a side of steamed vegetables for a complete dinner.
Best Dishes to Pair With
Serve Mongolian beef over steamed white rice, jasmine rice, or noodles to soak up the savory sauce. A side of steamed broccoli, snap peas, or stir-fried vegetables adds freshness and balance to the rich flavors.
For extra crunch, sprinkle sesame seeds or chopped green onions on top before serving.
Creative Leftover Ideas
Leftover Mongolian beef can easily become another quick meal. Serve it over rice bowls with roasted vegetables, use it in lettuce wraps, or add it to fried rice for a simple second dinner.
You can also tuck the beef into wraps or sandwiches for an easy lunch the next day.
