Brown Sugar Flank Steak


This is one of the easiest meals I make at my house. It is also one of our favorites. There are never leftovers. If my husband is running late from work or my son has a late class I have to take their portion out otherwise they will not get any. I cook this in my small crock pot (4 quarts).

-1 to 2 pound flank steak (I cut mine into smaller pieces so I can mix it together well)


Put the steak into the crock pot. In a separate bowl mix:

-1/4 cup soy sauce (I use low sodium)
-1/4 vegetable oil
-3 garlic cloves minced


-5 Tablespoons of brown sugar


Whisk it all together


Pour it over the flank steak in the crock pot and mix it around to make sure the steak is fully coated.


Cover your crock pot and set it for 4 hours. 


When the time is up, take 2 forks and pull the meat apart so it is shredded.


 We love it with mashed potatoes and whatever vegetable that is in season. Enjoy.

    Sounds tasty. Might try this with a different cut of meat.

      I had gotten a bunch of flank steaks on sale so that is what I have. I have done it with skirt steaks too and it came out great. I hope you like it.

I hope everyone is healthy and doing alright with our new normal. When the weather permits I have been out side working on the gardens. My kale never died the winter because it was so mild.

The gardening season has finally begin! Have you harvested anything from your garden yet this year?

Dirt

Image
At 7 am Saturday morning a truck came and dropped of 8 yards of topsoil. Then Hubby, the kids and I got to work. It was a beautiful day out, sunny and 60 degrees. Perfect for hard labor. We have a wheel barrel and a garden wagon that can dump. 4 shovels in hand and off we went.  We had several trees taken down a few years ago. Then 2 years ago we had the driveway done. Last year we had the siding on the house done. Time to fix the lawn. We have lots of dips in the front and back yard from all of the work. I am a little clumsy and have fallen several times in them. We were able to level out the front yard and fill in the holes in the back yard. The back yard has a large hill so it will never be level but it is more of a gentle slope now. Some places didn't get dirt because they didn't need it.  We ordered pizza since I was too tired to cook. After dinner Hubby spread grass seed everywhere. Today it is raining lightly.  It was hard work but we got it done and h
