Make dinner easy with this Slow Cooker Flank Steak recipe! Tender, juicy steak slow-cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. It’s simple to make, delicious, and guaranteed to impress every time.

Ingredients 

  • 1 flank steak, about 2-3 pounds
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch, optional, for thickening

Instructions

  • Season the flank steak with black pepper, paprika, thyme, and rosemary. Rub the seasonings evenly on both sides of the steak.
  • In a skillet, heat a small amount of oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  • Transfer the sautéed onions and garlic to the slow cooker. Add the beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, and brown sugar. Stir to combine.
  • Place the seasoned flank steak into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the steak is tender and easy to shred.
  • If you prefer a thicker sauce, remove the steak and set it aside. Mix the cornstarch with a little water to form a slurry, then stir it into the slow cooker liquid. Cook for another 10-15 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  • Slice the flank steak against the grain and serve with the sauce from the slow cooker. It pairs wonderfully with mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
