Notes
Store in an airtight container in the fridge along with vegetables and gravy for up to 3 days. You can freeze portions of the steak (by itself) if tightly sealed or closed to prevent any crystallization. I do not recommend freezing the gravy and vegetables due to textural changes.
Reheat individual portions by warming in a skillet on the stove or microwave for very short increments as it will heat quickly.
If you choose sirloin or chuck roast, cut the meat into smaller sections to fit evenly across the bottom of the slow cooker.
