Description

A comforting and easy Slow Cooker Beef and Noodles recipe, perfect for busy weeknights. Tender beef and noodles in a savory sauce, made with simple ingredients.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 pound egg noodles
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. 1. Trim any large pieces of excess fat from the beef chuck roast and cut into uniform 1-inch cubes.
  2. 2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add oil if desired and brown the beef cubes on all sides. Transfer browned beef to your slow cooker insert.
  3. 3. Add the chopped yellow onion and minced garlic to the same skillet and sauté for 3-5 minutes until softened. Transfer to the slow cooker with the beef.
  4. 4. To the slow cooker, add the beef broth, condensed cream of mushroom soup, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
  5. 5. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours, or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the beef is fork-tender.
  6. 6. About 30 minutes before serving, cook the egg noodles according to package directions in a separate pot of salted boiling water. Drain well.
  7. 7. If desired, thicken the sauce by making a slurry with 1-2 tablespoons of flour and water, and stirring it into the slow cooker on HIGH for 15-20 minutes, or by thickening on the stovetop. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  8. 8. Add the drained cooked egg noodles to the slow cooker and gently stir to combine. Serve hot.

Notes

Store cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat on the stovetop over medium-low heat, in the microwave, or in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until heated through. Add a splash of broth or water when reheating if the sauce is too thick.
