Slow Cooked Beef with Balsamic Garlic Sauce

Having guests over for dinner is the best excuse to cook something a bit fancy. Lately we have been getting a bit fancy a few times per week, thanks to our slow cooker.

Last thursday night we had a guest, my cousin Alex, and he got to experience our first attempt of a modifed recipie originally titled Veal with Balsamic Sage Sauce. I must say our modified version (which you are about to read) it a bit fabulous and is totally fancy enough to share with your next lot of guests.

You may even be so satisfied with this fancy meal you might want to get fancy with your lover....or your single sexy guest. I'M JUST SAYIN'.

Eat this.
