Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast, trimmed of excess fat
  • 4 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 4–5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
  • 6–8 ounces ramen noodles, cooked according to package instructions
  • 1 cup carrots, julienned or thinly sliced
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (optional)
  • Green onions, for garnish
  • Soft-boiled eggs (optional)
  • Sesame seeds (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Trim any excess fat from the beef chuck roast. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce (if using), sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, and rice vinegar. Whisk until well combined.
  3. Place the beef in your slow cooker. Pour the sauce mixture over the beef, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Add the beef broth and mix gently to combine.
  4. Cover the slow cooker and set it to low heat. Cook for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and falling apart.
  5. About 30 minutes before the beef is done, add the julienned carrots and sliced mushrooms to the slow cooker. Stir to ensure they’re submerged in the broth.
  6. Once the beef is done, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef to the broth.
  7. Prepare the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  8. Divide the cooked ramen noodles into serving bowls. Ladle the beef and broth mixture over the noodles. Top with sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and a soft-boiled egg if desired.

Notes

[‘Cooking the beef on low heat allows it to become tender and absorb all the flavors.’, ‘Use fresh ginger and garlic for a more vibrant flavor.’, ‘Taste the broth before serving and adjust with soy sauce or a pinch of salt if needed.’, ‘For perfectly cooked soft-boiled eggs, boil them for 6 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.’, ‘While the slow cooker is working, prep your noodles and garnishes to save time.’]
