Slow Cooker Asian Beef Tacos

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Slow Cooker

Soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger and cinnamon create an Eastern-flavor-tinged sauce that�s scrumptious on beef�and an ideal contrast for slaw seasoned with rice vinegar and cilantro. Serve as tacos or on slider-size mini-buns as an appetizer.

"These had awesome flavor and the slaw was a great contrast. In my slow cooker the meat was done and pretty much shredded after 4 hours on high. I just mixed the meat into the sauce and served with slotted spoon to drain extra sauce. Flour tortilla is perfect vessel! Very easy to make. I may try with London broil next time since it costs 1/3 less where I am, but this is a great recipe. Directions easy to follow." - Mshaley
