This beef and broccoli recipe tastes delicious atop a bed of brown or wild rice. You can even wrap it altogether with a lettuce wrap. I usually add in some crushed red pepper flakes for some additional heat. Every crockpot cooks differently so play with the timing a bit. When you pull the beef apart with your forks it should peel away easily. If not, cook it a bit longer until it’s very easy to pull apart. Enjoy!
