Modifications:

Mixed the dry spices and used as a dry rub. 

Used molasses instead of brown sugar. 

Used an oatmeal stout instead of some watery shit beer. 

Set the roast on a bed of sliced onions in the crock pot. 

Added some more salt, pepper, and onion powder after shredding the beef and adding the roasted garlic paste. Also added some Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, and ketchup. 

Spicy Pan-Fried Noodles

Base recipe: http://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1016942-spicy-pan-fried-noodles

Modifications
I brined some shrimp and threw that in the pan with the first half of the scallion/sauce. I added the spinach to wilt, then added matchstick carrots. Probably should have added the carrots first, then wilted the spinach. Either way, once the veggies are in and somewhat softened, add the rice noodles and toss the sauce in.

Instead of sriracha, I used Korean red pepper paste, and probably too much. Maybe next time, I'll only use half a tablespoon or so, and Korean red pepper powder for any additional heat.

Stir Fry

The Sauce 
3 parts soy sauce
2 parts mirin
2 tsp corn starch
Dash of Worcestershire

Other Stuff
flank steak
onions
bell peppers
rice
garlic

Preparation
Wash the rice and get that cooking, whether it be in a pan on the stove or in a rice cooker. Do the rest of the prep after the rice has begun cooking.

Slice the flank steak into thin strips, against the grain of the meat Slice the onions and bell peppers
Mince the garlic
--then--
Rub the sliced flank steak with minced garlic and kosher salt. Let it sit together for ~10 minutes. Don't use too much salt!
Mix the sauce together in a dish. You'll probably need to mix it again just before pouring into the pan.

Cooking
Cook the meat on ~medium heat in some hot oil.
Throw the onions and bell peppers in another pan in some hot oil. Leave the pan on medium-low heat. Add some salt. If cooking other veggies, prepare similarly.
Once the meat is cooked 3/4 to your liking, add the veggies, and toss a bit. Stir the sauce again, then pour into the pan with everything else. Stir and stir. Cook for a few more minutes, and it will be ready to go!

Serving
Serve alongside or on top of rice.
