Crockpot Stroganoff Recipe

Only five ingredients to make this delicious meal!

Ingredients for Easy Crock Pot Beef Stroganoff

• stew meat – choose good quality meat and dice your own beef cubes
• onion – thinly sliced
• mushrooms – fresh mushrooms add an earthy, meaty flavor
• gravy packets – easy seasoning in a packet!
• rice or egg noodles – whichever is your favorite.

What is the best cut of meat for this recipe?

The store sells pre-cubed beef stew meat, but I don’t recommend purchasing the diced meat. Often times its not the best cut of meat. Here’s what I recommend:

• sirloin steak – an affordable cut and you can easily dice the beef and remove the fat
• chuck roast – well-marbled, just trim off the fat
• brisket – great flavor and the longer it’s simmered the more tender it gets.
• rump roast – another great affordable cut

What is stroganoff sauce made of?

The vegetables, beef and gravy packet combine to make a delicious sauce finished with sour cream – it’s delicious!

What goes with Easy Crock Pot Beef Stroganoff?

Traditionally this meal is served over rice or egg noodles. Use whichever you’d prefer!

To serve alongside this meal I recommend Roasted Broccoli, Grilled Asparagus, Green Beans or Steamed Brussels Sprouts. Keep it simple! This meal is super-rich and a simple side dish is best.

If you’d like to include a salad, try this recipe for a Garden Salad – so simple and just delicious! And to sop up the gravy you can’t go wrong by adding some dinner rolls!

How do you keep the sour cream from cuddling when using the slow cooker?

It’s simple, you’ll wait to stir it in until the end. That way it won’t curdle.

What wine would go with stroganoff?

This meal is delicious enough to serve for company and wine would be excellent to serve alongside.

Choose a light fruity red, that will pair best with this meal. A shiraz or Grenache would be a great choice!

Sour Cream Beef Stroganoff

Steps to Make Easy Crock Pot Beef Stroganoff

1. trim the meat and dice into one inch cubes
2. slice the onions and mushrooms
3. add the meat, onions and mushrooms to the crockpot
4. top with gravy mixed with water
5. add the lid and cook on low for eight hours
6. finish by stirring in sour cream
7. serve over rice or egg noodles

The meat comes out tender, succulent and savory!

After adding the sour cream and combining, check the seasonings. Depending on the seasoning mix in the gravy packets you may want to add a dash of salt & pepper at the end to suit your taste.

There was plenty here for 6+ servings, just depending on how large the servings were.

Leftovers were transformed into a soup. I added all the leftovers, beef stroganoff and the rice to a sauce pan along with a couple cups of beef stock and made a delicious beef stroganoff soup!
