It takes only minutes to ready round steak for the slow cooker, then it simmers to a tasty tenderness most of the day. Tip: Lind Bloom of McHenry, Illinois says the flavorful beef strips and sauce are nice over hot rice.

  • 2 tablespoons plus 1-1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 2-1/2 cups cold water, divided
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar

  • 2-1/2 pounds beef top round steak, cut into 3-inch x 1/2-inch strips
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

  • 10 cups hot cooked egg noodles

Directions
