Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by cutting the beef chuck into bite-sized chunks and place them in a large bowl. Season the pieces generously with freshly ground black pepper.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, and gochujang until the brown sugar is fully dissolved.
  3. Transfer the seasoned beef chunks into your slow cooker. Pour the prepared sauce mixture over the beef, ensuring every piece is coated. Set the slow cooker on low and cover it tightly.
  4. Let the beef cook in the slow cooker for 6 to 8 hours on low or 3 to 4 hours on high. The beef should be tender enough to easily shred with a fork.
  5. About 15 to 20 minutes before you're ready to serve, cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  6. Once the beef is tender, carefully add the cooked noodles into the slow cooker and gently mix until well combined.
  7. Spoon the mixture into bowls and garnish with chopped green onions, sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro.
