This Slow Cooker Beef and Noodles with Mushrooms recipe starts with a chuck roast. I love the flavor of a chuck roast and how inexpensive they are compared to some other cuts of beef. I take a few minutes to sear the chuck roast in a pan before adding it to the crock pot. I find the flavor is just so much better.

Montreal steak seasoning, salt, and pepper are used to flavor the chuck roast.

The chuck roast is cooked with a little red wine, onion, garlic, thyme and a bay leaf until tender. Once the chuck roast is done cooking, remove it from the crock pot and add beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and frozen egg noodles to the crock pot and cook until the egg noodles are done.

Brown the mushrooms in some butter and then add them along with half a cup of heavy cream to the crock pot.

This is a bowl full of comfort food with tender chunks of meat, mushrooms, and egg noodles all in a creamy broth.

      Does the meat sit out on the cutting board the entire time the noodles are cooking? That seems like it would toughen up?

  1. Made this supper For tonight and shared with my parents it was delicious and so warm and comforting on a cold rainy evening ! Thank you

    I’m sure you could use dry noodles, but the frozen noodles are so much better! They taste like homemade noodles. There is also a brand called Grandma’s Noodles in the freezer section. We don’t have Reams noodles in my town.

      The grocery store has no-alcohol red wine next to the vinegar. It’s called “Cooking Wine”. I’ve used it in lots of dishes. I’m not alcohol free, but I don’t really keep wine in the house. It goes bad too quickly. I forget about it. I’m Pinning this recipe!

    2. Almost any liquid can be used to deglaze a pan, from the neutral and minimalist plain water favoured by avant-garde chefs of the 1970s, to fanciful liquors and fruit juices. Select something that will complement the flavour of your final dish.

  3. I haven’t seen frozen egg noodles – could you use dried ones and if so how would you adjust the cooking time?

    Thank you,
    Julia

    1. Jules, there is a brand called Reames, homestyle egg noodles (frozen). I use them all the time. They are great.

        I have used the frozen ones before and didn’t like them. Not in this recipe but they came out slimy. Going to try with dry egg or Kluski is actually my favorite. Do u think maybe 10 minutes towards the end?
