How To Make Crock Pot Beef Sirloin Steak

1. Brown the Beef:
   In a large nonstick skillet, sear the sirloin steak on both sides until browned.
2. Add Vegetables to Crock Pot:
   Place the chopped onion and green pepper in the bottom of a 3-quart slow cooker. Set the browned beef on top.
3. Mix and Pour the Sauce:
   In a bowl, combine the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, dill weed, thyme, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Pour over the beef in the slow cooker.
4. Cook the Steak:
   Cover and cook on high for 3–4 hours, or until the beef reaches your desired doneness and the vegetables are crisp-tender.
5. Thicken the Sauce:
   Remove the beef and keep warm. In a small bowl, stir together cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Stir the mixture into the cooking liquid in the crock pot.
6. Finish and Serve:
   Cover and cook on high for about 30 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens. Return the beef to the pot to heat through before serving.
