Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Broth

  • 2 – 3 pounds beef roast
  • 1 can reduced-sodium beef broth, 14 oz.
  • 6 – 8 cups beef broth or water, more if desired

Seasonings and Mixes

  • 1 envelope beefy onion soup mix, from a 2.2 oz. box
  • 3 – 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Other Ingredients

  • 1 can cream of celery or mushroom soup, undiluted, 10.5-10.75 oz.
  • 1 package frozen home-style egg noodles, 24 oz.

Instructions

  1. Prepare Soup Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the reduced-sodium beef broth, beefy onion soup mix, cream of mushroom (or celery) soup, and minced garlic cloves. Stir thoroughly until well mixed, then set aside.
  2. Slow Cook the Beef: Place the beef roast in a 5-quart (or larger) slow cooker. Pour the prepared soup mixture over the roast. Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours or overnight, until the beef is tender and shreds easily with a fork.
  3. Add Broth and Continue Cooking: In the morning, shred the beef inside the slow cooker. Add 6 to 8 cups of beef broth or water to the cooker, depending on your desired brothiness. Cover and continue cooking on LOW for another 8 hours.
  4. Add Noodles and Final Cook: One hour before serving, add the frozen home-style egg noodles along with salt and pepper to taste. Stir gently to combine. Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 hour, or until noodles are tender.

Notes

  • Homemade noodles or dried egg noodles can substitute the frozen noodles; if using dried noodles, you may need to add extra broth to maintain proper consistency.
  • Adding vegetables such as carrot chips, green peas, or a bag of frozen mixed vegetables when adding the noodles can enhance nutritional value and flavor.
  • You can substitute cream of celery soup with cream of mushroom soup or vice versa, depending on preference or allergies.
  • Adjust salt and pepper seasoning at the end to taste.
