There’s something deeply satisfying about a hearty pepper steak that simmers all day while you live your life—no stirring, no stress, just the promise of tender beef, crisp-tender bell peppers, and a glossy, savory-sweet sauce waiting for you at dinnertime.
This Crock Pot Pepper Steak is a brilliant weeknight hero: inspired by classic Chinese-American takeout but made healthier, more affordable, and infinitely cozier right in your slow cooker. Thinly sliced beef melts into a sauce built on pantry staples—soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and a touch of brown sugar—while colorful peppers stay just firm enough to add freshness and crunch.
Serve it over steamed rice or noodles, and you’ve got a restaurant-worthy meal with minimal hands-on time and maximum comfort.
