Recipe Ingredients
- Soy Vay Veri Veri Teriyaki – This teriyaki has an authentic taste and isn’t sticky and gloppy like others.

Step Two – Stir all the ingredients together until well combined.
Step Three – Cover and cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 6 hours. Serve and enjoy!
How to Serve
- Crock pot teriyaki beef is delicious served over a bed of white rice. You can also swap for brown rice, Jasmine rice, or cauliflower rice.
- Serve this tasty beef alongside a helping of edamame, snap peas, broccoli, or a veggie combo.
- Top the teriyaki beef with sesame seeds, soy sauce, and sliced green onion.
Can I use a different cut of beef?
Yes, you can use these cuts of beef instead of beef stew meat if desired.
- Flank steak – no need to cube up. Put in whole and shred after the cooking time is up.
- Chuck roast or any other beef roast – Cut into 1-inch cubes
- Steak – Sometimes I have leftover steaks from a value pack and those work great cubed up in this recipe.
- Ground beef – if you only have ground beef you can definitely use it with this recipe. Brown, crumble and drain before continuing with the recipe.
