For enhanced flavor, sear the flank steak in a hot skillet before placing it in the slow cooker. This creates a rich crust and adds depth to the final dish. Consider adding a splash of red wine vinegar or Worcestershire sauce for extra tang and complexity. If you prefer a richer sauce, thicken the cooking liquid with a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water) during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Leftover flank steak is fantastic in sandwiches, salads, or tacos.
