BEEF TIPS NOODLES RECIPES

Steps:

• Begin by mixing the milk and soups together in a bowl.
• Add in pepper to taste, the minced garlic, and the pot roast seasoning. Stir well.
• Place your uncooked beef in the bottom of the crockpot and top with the soup mixture. Cook on low for 10 hours or high for 4 to 6 hours.
• Add in the sour cream in the last 30 minutes of cook time.
• Cook the egg noodles according to the package directions and add to crockpot once done. Mix and serve.

Steps:

• For noodles, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 8 oz. dried noodles, 1 teaspoon oil, and 1 teaspoon salt after coming to a boil. Cook noodles per package directions. I cooked an additional 8 minutes.
• In fry pan cook rib eye steak to medium-rare. Remove from pan and slice and cube to 1/4" by 1/4".
• Slice and cube portobello mushroom to 1/4" by 1/4" cubes. In a separate fry pan, sautee mushrooms in 1 teaspoon olive oil and 2 teaspoons butter over medium heat for 10 minutes. Add cubed rib eye to mushroom pan and keep warm. I had an equal amount of rib rye and mushroom.
• Add two beef bouillon cubes to 1/2 cup water and nuke for two minutes. Dissolve bouillon cubes.
• Add beef broth to the pan that steak was fried in. Bring to low simmer and add 1 additional cup of water.
• Add 2 tablespoons of corn starch to 1/2 cup cold water and make a slurry.
• At low simmer add corn starch slurry to the pan and stir and increase heat to thicken the gravy.
• Add 1/4 teaspoon Kitchen Bouquet to darken. Add salt and pepper to taste. Makes 2 cups.
• Drain noodles and melt 2 tablespoons of butter in them and stir.
• Plate butter noodles, top with steak and mushrooms and then cover with gravy.
• Note: I made two single meals out of this and still have 1/2 the noodles for other offerings. I will make chicken noodle soup or freeze the remaining noodles.
• Note: I could have added a quarter cup of sweet red wine to the gravy the last few minutes but chose not to this time.
• Note: This was a real pleasure. I could also have added 1/3 to 1/2 cup of sour cream to the gravy and I would have had excellent beef tomato gravy rather than a brown gravy, it is also excellent.
• Note: A second rib eye steak and all of the very large portobello mushroom and the noodles would have served four people amply. You have to pay attention to discern the difference between the steak and the mushroom.
• Note: You could use cube roast meat for this if you slow cooked it in the oven for one to two hours in some beef juice or gravy. Rib eye or a tender steak negates the need for this.
