Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds stew beef
  • 1 ounce packet ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 ounce packet brown gravy mix (or au jus)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups low sodium beef broth
  • ½ cup sliced pepperoncini peppers (can use 4 whole pepperoncini)
  • 2 Tablespoons pepperoncini juice from the jar (optional, see notes below)
  • 16 ounce package egg noodles (I like to use the amish ones)
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Add 1 1/2 pounds stew beef to a 5-6 quart slow cooker.
  • Sprinkle 1 ounce packet ranch seasoning mix, 1 ounce packet brown gravy mix, 1 teaspoon garlic powder and ½ teaspoon black pepper over beef.
  • Pour in 4 cups low sodium beef broth, ½ cup sliced pepperoncini peppers and 2 Tablespoons pepperoncini juice from the jar (the juice is optional).

  • Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, until beef is tender (it is not recommended to cook on high as meat won’t turn out as tender)
    NOTE: Do not open the lid while cooking. This will make the meat less tender and will take longer to cook. Just set it and forget it.
  • Once beef is ready, add in 16 ounce package egg noodles and gently stir them in (being careful not to break them.)

  • Cover and cook for another 30 minutes to 1 hour or until noodles are cooked through.
    NOTE: This time can vary based on your slow cooker. Cook until noodles are soft, don’t just go by the cook time given here.
  • Once noodles are soft and cooked, stir in 1 cup heavy cream just before serving.

Notes

  • Please refer to my FAQ’s (Frequently Asked Questions) and ingredient list above for other substitutions or for the answers to the most common questions.
  • The pepperonicini juice adds a little kick to this. If you don't want that, just leave it out. 
  • NOTE: I definitely suggest low or no sodium options where possible if you have any sensitivity to salt or are worried this will be too salty for you.
