Tammy's Review: 

This is a good pepper steak recipe! I like having it mostly-made in the morning (I chop the veggies while the meat is browning!) though it does require a couple steps besides  just "put everyting in the slow cooker"! ;) This is a good autumn recipe to warm the kitchen and use some of the extra peppers from the garden! :)

I generally really prefer stove-top or oven recipes over slow-cooker recipes, and this one was no exception. While it is good, it's not as good (in my opinion) as the stove-top versions of pepper steak that I make. My rating: 8/10

It was good

It was good, but not GREAT.

It was nice for doing something out of our ordinary though. We dont do a lot of pepper steak around here.
