it tasted great and i will definitely make it again. i have shared it once already to me it seemed to not have an adequate amount of liquids for cooking 5 - 6 hours. i doubled the liquid ingredients.

This is a family favorite! It used to be one of our "special" meals, but now my young son loves it and requests it often. I usually double the ingredients for the marinade, and it helps it to remain moist.

So good! Even my picky-eater kids loved it. Didn't have time for slow-cooker, so made on stove top and used stew meat. Still excellent! We like it with rice.

This is the best recipe ever. My son is a very picky eater and he loves this. We put it over mashed potatoes and add veggies. It's quick and fast.

I omitted the salt since soy sauce is salty. I also added one can of beef broth to make it less dry. Stewed tomatoes work well too. Other than that, its perfect! I have this written in my keeper cookbook and have made it many times over the years. Love it!!
