Ingredients
Scale
Beef and Sauce
- 2 pounds beef stew meat or sirloin tips, cut into chunks
- 1 packet (1 oz) onion soup mix
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 ½ cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Thickener
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
Noodles and Garnish
- 12 oz egg noodles, cooked according to package instructions
- Optional: chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients in Crockpot: In the crockpot, add the beef tips, onion soup mix, cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Slow Cook Beef: Cover and cook on low for 7–8 hours or high for 4–5 hours, until the beef is very tender and flavorful, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Prepare Thickener: About 30 minutes before serving, mix the cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl to make a slurry. Stir this slurry into the crockpot to thicken the gravy, cover again, and cook for the remaining time.
- Cook Noodles: Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
- Serve and Garnish: Serve the tender beef tips and rich gravy over the prepared egg noodles. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired to add freshness and color to the dish.
Notes
- For extra flavor, sear the beef in a skillet before adding it to the crockpot. This step is optional but enhances the depth of flavor.
- This dish is freezer-friendly and can be made in advance for convenient meal prep.
