Yield: 6 Servings

Ingredients

·         1 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt

·         1 teaspoon paprika

·         1 teaspoon ground ginger

·         1 1/2 lbs stew meat

·         3 Tablespoons olive oil

·         2 cloves of garlic

·         1 (20 ounce) can of pineapple chunks with juice

·         2 beef bouillon cubes

·         1/4 cup white vinegar

·         2 medium onions, chopped

·         1 (10 ounce) can mild Rotel tomatoes

·         3 Tablespoons brown sugar

·         2 Tablespoons cornstarch

·         1/4 cup water

·         2 Tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions

1.    In a gallon size ziploc bag, add season salt, paprika, and ground ginger. Shake bag to mix.

2.    Add stew meat to seasoning, close bag and shake until all pieces are lightly covered.

3.    In a large skillet, add olive oil. Heat pan over medium heat. Once pan is hot, add stew meat. This may require a few batches (it took me 3 batches to do all of the meat).

4.    Sear the beef on each side. DO NOT FULLY COOK. Just get a nice sear on it to seal in the flavor.

5.    Once meat has a nice color, transfer to crock pot. Repeat with remaining batches.

6.    Add to crock pot, garlic, pineapple with juice, bouillon cubes, vinegar, onions and Rotel..

7.    Cook on low for 4 - 6 hours (depending on your crock pot), until beef is cooked through and tender.

8.    In a small bowl combine brown sugar, cornstarch, water and soy sauce.

9.    Pour this over the beef, stir and cook on high for 30 minutes - 1 hour, or until mixture thickens.

10. Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.
