Crockpot Beef Tips and Egg Noodles
🛒 What You’ll Need
- 2 lbs Beef stew meat or sirloin tips, cut into bite-sized cubes 🥩
- 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of mushroom soup 🥣
- 1 packet Brown gravy mix or Onion soup mix ✨
- 1 cup Beef broth (for that extra richness!) 🥣
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 🍯
- 1 Small onion, diced 🧅
- 1 packet (12 oz) Wide egg noodles 🍝
- 2 tbsp Butter (for the noodles) 🧈
- Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish 🌿
- Salt & Black pepper to taste 🧂🖤
👩🍳 Instructions
- Load the Crockpot: Place your beef tips and diced onion into the bottom of the slow cooker. 🥩🧅🥣
- The Gravy Magic: In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, gravy mix, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour the mixture over the beef. 🌪️✨🤤
- Slow & Low: Cover and cook on Low for 7–8 hours (or on High for 3–4 hours) until the beef is incredibly tender and the gravy is thick and bubbling. ⏲️🔥💨
- Prep the Noodles: About 15 minutes before you’re ready to eat, boil the egg noodles in salted water according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and toss with butter. 🍝🧈⏲️
- Combine & Serve: You can either stir the noodles directly into the crockpot or spoon a generous portion of the beef and gravy right over a mountain of noodles as seen in the photo! 🥄🌊👑
- Final Touch: Garnish with fresh parsley and extra cracked black pepper. 🌿✨😋
🔥 Pro Tips:
- The “Sear” Secret: For even deeper flavor, quickly sear the beef cubes in a hot skillet with a little oil before adding them to the crockpot to lock in those juices! 🥩🔥🛡️
- Veggie Boost: Want to make it a full meal? Toss in some sliced mushrooms or frozen peas during the last 30 minutes of cooking! 🍄🫛🎯
