Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! A slow cooker or crockpot is the perfect way to prepare tender and delicious steak. The internal temperature of the steak should be at least 160 degrees when it is done.
This will depend on the thickness of the steaks. Usually you can cook on high for 2-3 hours or on low for 6-8 hours. The internal temperature of the steak should be at least 160 degrees when it is done.
My favorite steaks to cook in the crockpot are round, sirloin, chuck or skirt steaks. All of these will come out tender and delicious when slow cooked.

I am asking about seasoning, I do not use soy sauce or coconut . What could substitute them with? Thank you
smallfarmbiglife says
Hi Fran. I've only ever used coconut aminos in this recipes. I think you could probably use liquid aminos but they may have more sodium so you might need to cut down on the salt you add. I hope that helps. ~Elaine
