Slow Cooker Teriyaki Pineapple Beef

I have always been a fan of the slow cooker, I think that's probably becoming apparent by now. I mean really, taking ingredients, dumping them into a pot, and setting the timer - what could be worse?! The slow cooker does all the work!

And this doozie was a mere three ingredients: beef, teriyaki, & pineapple chunks. Similar to the chicken I made last week, all you do is dump the sauce over the meat and let it rip. An hour or so before you want to eat, dump in the pineapple and away you go!

I did, however, find the sauce to be a little runny, so while I boiled the noodles, I removed the lid from the slow cooker, added in a slurry (cornstarch + water), and turned the heat to high until the noodles were done cooking (leave it uncovered). Perfect.
