Crockpot Garlic and Ginger Beef

About

This crockpot Keto beef recipe is simple to prepare then left to cook slowly in the crockpot until tender. Our low carb slow cooker recipe is prepared with diced stewing beef, onion, sesame oil, tangy tamari sauce, warming ground ginger, garlic powder, sweet maple-flavored syrup, rich beef stock, tender mushrooms, and broccoli. Perfect served with your favorite Keto Asian inspired sides.

Can I Thicken the Sauce?

This Keto slow cooker recipe is perfect served up with a drizzling of the tasty cooking juices. If you would prefer a thicker sauce for your beef dish, you can add a little xanthan gum. Once the beef is cooked, remove a 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid and whisk in a teaspoon of xanthan gum (or more or less as desired). Pour this into the slow cooker and stir until thickened. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes or additions made to the recipe.

Can I Make This on The Stove?

We have prepared our Keto garlic and ginger beef recipe in the crockpot for simplicity and fuss-free cooking. If you do not have a crockpot, you can cook the recipe on the stove. Simply brown the beef in a large Dutch oven in a little oil. Add the remaining ingredients apart from the mushrooms and broccoli. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook gently for an hour and a half. You will need to add more stock as cooking on the stove will reduce the liquid faster – up to two cups of stock. Add the broccoli and mushrooms and cook uncovered for a further 15-20 minutes or until tender.
