Slow Cooker Asian Shredded Beef

Holy fakeout-takeout.

I want to say holy guacamole. But that wouldn’t make sense with a fakeout-takeout kind of Asian dish like this.

So, holy fakeout-takeout.

This shredded beef is so delicious. And it’s so easy to through together with a fabulous homemade Asian sauce.

And…freezer friendly too!

Love me a beef roast that can go freezer to slow cooker in just a matter of minutes!

Let me know how you enjoy this delicious dinner 🙂
