Why This Recipe Works
The slow cooker does most of the work, allowing the beef to cook low and slow until it’s incredibly tender. As it simmers, the flavors deepen and blend together, creating a rich, homemade taste with minimal effort. It’s the kind of meal that feels special, even though it’s simple to prepare.
Ingredients You’ll Need
This recipe uses basic, easy-to-find ingredients, making it ideal for everyday cooking:
Beef (such as chuck roast or stew meat)
Beef broth
Onion and garlic
Cream of mushroom soup or gravy base
Seasonings like salt, pepper, and herbs
Egg noodles
These ingredients come together to create a warm, filling dish that everyone enjoys.
How to Make Slow Cooker Beef and Noodles
Start by placing the beef in the slow cooker and seasoning it well. Add onions, garlic, broth, and your chosen gravy or soup base. Let everything cook on low heat for several hours until the beef is fork-tender. Near the end of cooking, stir in cooked or uncooked noodles (depending on preference) and allow them to absorb the flavorful sauce.
Tips for the Best Results
Use the right cut of beef: Tougher cuts work best because they become tender over time.
Don’t rush it: Low and slow cooking brings out the best flavor.
