No reviews

Tender beef and hearty noodles simmered to perfection in the slow cooker—comfort food made easy.

Ingredients

22.5 lbs beef chuck roast

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 tbsp olive oil (optional, for searing)

1 packet (1 oz) onion soup mix

1 packet (0.87 oz) brown gravy mix

1 tsp garlic powder

4 cups beef broth

12 oz egg noodles

Optional: chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

Optional: Sear chuck roast in a skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil until browned on all sides (about 3–4 minutes per side).

Place roast in the slow cooker. Sprinkle onion soup mix, gravy mix, and garlic powder on top.

Pour in beef broth, cover, and cook on Low for 8 hours or High for 4–5 hours, until beef is fork-tender.

Remove the roast, shred with two forks, and return to the slow cooker.

Cook egg noodles separately according to package instructions; drain and add them to the slow cooker. Stir to combine.

Let everything warm together for 10–15 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley, if desired.

Notes

No need to sear the roast, but it enhances flavor if you have time.

You can cook uncooked egg noodles directly in the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes (add more broth if needed).

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze without noodles for up to 2 months.

Great served with crusty bread or mashed potatoes on the side.
