  • ½ cup maple syrup can also use brown sugar
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Instructions
 

  • Coat beef in cornstarch.
  • In a dutch oven, slow cooker, or instant pot, whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, maple syrup, garlic, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, ginger, chili crisp, pepper, and onion.  Add beef and cook on low heat for 6 hours or high heat for 4 hours.  If you are cooking in a dutch oven, bake at 350 for 2.5 hours.
