🥘 Ingredients (Serves 6–8)

For the Beef & Sauce

• 1 ½ lbs beef stew meat (or chuck roast, cubed)
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 3 cups sliced mushrooms (button or cremini)
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 ½ cups beef broth
• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• ½ tsp dried thyme
• Salt & black pepper to taste

For Finishing

• 10 oz egg noodles
• 2 tbsp butter
• Fresh parsley (optional)

🔪 Step-by-Step Cooking Method

Step 1 — Prep the Beef

Pat the beef cubes dry with a paper towel. This helps them brown (optional), but even without browning they’ll become tender.

Optional flavor boost:
Sear the beef in a hot skillet with a little oil until lightly browned on the edges. This deepens the savory flavor.

Step 2 — Layer the Ingredients in the Slow Cooker

Place ingredients in the following order:

1. Onions
2. Mushrooms
3. Garlic
4. Beef cubes

This layering keeps vegetables from overcooking and allows the beef to cook evenly.
