Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff Simply Recipes

Jump to Recipe

Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff is a hearty and comforting weeknight dinner waiting for you. Tender beef, rich savory sauce, mushrooms, and served over a bed of egg noodles.

I grew up hating Beef Stroganoff with a passion. My mom's recipe used cream of mushroom soup which I could not stand as a kid. Mind you I was a very picky eater and hard to please.

The list of foods I would eat was short. I know I gave my parents a very hard time with eating as a kid. Thankfully I grew out of it and now am willing to try just about anything at least once. A big change from my 8 year old self!

Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff

This recipe for Beef Stroganoff does not include cream of mushroom soup and is also made in the slow cooker. It uses fresh mushrooms not canned – which I still don't like.

There's no pre-cooking anything. Just dump all the ingredients in the slow cooker except the sour cream and set it on low. Simple! My house smells so good while it's cooking and it's hard to not want to sneak a quick taste.

Dump and Cook Slow Cooker Recipe

My niece, Avery, was visiting over the holidays and spent the night at our house. She's six years old and cute as a button. She's also very intelligent and told me that she loved the recipe. She cleaned her entire plate! She is not picky like my girls! Bridget would only eat the sauce as long as I didn't get any mushrooms in it. Olivia ate it and thankfully has outgrown her picky behaviour.

I would make this more often if the steak wasn't so darn expensive. It's funny because the steak was cheaper in Nova Scotia, but the chicken was pricey. Here in Ontario, it's the opposite!

We eat more chicken, but I do like to mix it up with beef every so often.

How Do You Make Beef Stroganoff in the Slow Cooker

Start by placing your steak, onions, mushrooms, mustard, salt, and pepper, along with dill and garlic. Give the mixture a stir, and then work on making your sauce in a separate bowl.

For the sauce you will grab a bowl and mix your broth with the flour, slowly whisking it. Then you will pour it over the ingredients in your slow cooker. Cover and cook for 6-7 hours on low.

At this point turn off your slow cooker and let it sit for about 15 minutes, then stir in your sour cream. Pair with egg noodles, rice or mashed potatoes if you would like.

What is the Best Beef for Beef Stroganoff

You are welcome to use any type of beef you would like. Whether you buy beef stew meat, flat iron steak, or more. You will want to cut up your steak for this recipe.

You will find that better quality beef will give you a more tender and flavorful stroganoff. But since it cooks low and slow for such a long time, it will do great tenderizing even tastier.

Why Do You Let the Crock-Pot Cool Before Storing in Sour Cream

You will need to let your crock pot cool down a bit because if you dump the sour cream in while it is pretty hot you will find it curdles right away. You can also whisk in the sour cream to help it to incorporate it into the mixture.

Once your steak is fully cooked and begins to get tender, you can then turn off for 15 minutes just like the slow cooker method. Then stir in the sour cream and serve.
