"Sink your teeth into melt-in-your-mouth beef and savory mushrooms enveloped in a rich, velvety sour cream sauce. This slow-cooker classic delivers deep, gourmet flavors with minimal effort, making it the perfect cozy dinner for the whole family."

1 Ingredients

Qty Item
2 lbs Beef chuck roast, cubed
12 oz Cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 medium Yellow onion, diced
4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
2 cups Beef broth, low sodium
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp Smoked paprika
1 cup Sour cream
2 tbsp Cornstarch
2 tbsp Cold water
12 oz Wide egg noodles, cooked

2 Instructions

1

Place the cubed beef, sliced mushrooms, diced onions, and minced garlic into the slow cooker.

2

In a small bowl, whisk together the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and smoked paprika. Pour this mixture over the beef and vegetables.

3

Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 4 hours until the beef is tender and falling apart.

4

In a small ramekin, mix the cornstarch and cold water to create a slurry. Stir this into the slow cooker and cook on high for another 15-20 minutes to thicken the sauce.

5

Turn off the heat or set to warm. Stir in the sour cream until the sauce is smooth and creamy.

6

Serve the beef and mushroom mixture over hot cooked egg noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.


πŸ’‘ Tips & Tricks

  • Β·

    For the best flavor, sear the beef cubes in a hot skillet with a little oil before adding them to the crock pot.

  • Β·

    Use full-fat sour cream for the creamiest texture; low-fat versions can sometimes curdle or break in the heat.

  • Β·

    Add the sour cream at the very end when the heat is low to ensure the sauce remains silky.

  • Β·

    If you want even more umami flavor, add a splash of dry white wine or sherry with the broth.


? Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different cut of meat?
Yes, while chuck roast is best for slow cooking, you can also use beef stew meat or round roast.
Can I cook the noodles directly in the slow cooker?
It is recommended to cook them separately to prevent them from becoming too mushy and absorbing all the sauce.
Can I substitute the sour cream?
Greek yogurt is a good substitute, though it is slightly tangier. Ensure you add it off the heat to avoid curdling.
How should I store leftovers?
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove.
