Crock Pot Beef Stroganoff is one of those recipes that is so good I wonder why we don’t have it more often. It’s an easy slow cooker recipe that simmers all day and smells heavenly.
I usually stir it together with noodles before serving but you can serve it over noodles or rice, your preference. The meat is tender and the sauce has a rich flavor from the long simmering. Serve with a salad and crusty bread and your family will be anxious to gather at the dinner table!
Easy Beef Stroganoff
(Note: I often multiply the recipe by half again as much, so 1 ½ lbs. stew meat, etc.)
1 lb. beef stew meat (I usually cut it up in bite-size pieces)
½ cup flour
1/8 tsp. pepper
2 tsp. salt
½ tsp. dry mustard
Stir together dry ingredients in slow cooker. Add meat pieces and toss to coat.
Stir together:
2 cups hot water
1 ½ TBS au jus seasoning OR beef bouillon powder OR beef base
Pour over coated meat in crock pot and stir lightly to combine.
Cook on low 8 to 10 hours. Just before serving, stir these ingredients into crock pot:
1 ½ cups sour cream
¼ cup flour
3 TBS parsley (I usually use dried)
Serve over noodles or rice (or mix with the noodles like we do).

Tips From a Mom of 12
You'll love this free guide with simple secrets from a Mom of 12. You won't feel "less than" with these tips, you'll be encouraged!
I am really excited about an easy beef stroganoff recipe that does not involve cream of mushroom (or cream of anything, for that matter) soup. I am planning on putting beef stew meat on the grocery list to make it very soon.
I make my own white sauce for casseroles and such–it’s easy, with butter and flour and broth. I know what you mean–I hardly ever make something that needs cream of something, lol
It’s in the crockpot! 🙂 I love crockpot meals! Thanks so much for sharing!
Wow, you’re fast! Let us know how it turned out!
Can you make this recipe without a crockpot?
I’m wondering if it could be baked at a lower temperature in the oven for a couple of hours.
It probably could be cooked in the oven–the only thing is that someone said that a lot of times the meat is chewy in Stroganoff, so you’d probably want to cook it at a very low temp for a long time.
I had to laugh about what you wrote regarding Gracie in today’s email newsletter (about her being the 9th child, born on the 9th and weighing 9 pounds). It reminds me of my 4th child, who was born on 4-4-04. I never have any problem remembering his birthday. LOL
Oh, that’s cool! How fun!
It was super yum! I asked how it was but got silence…they were all too busy eating! Thanks! It’s a keeper!
Ah–hahaha!! So glad you all enjoyed it!
Made this for our Tue. evening group and they all (13) loved it! They all wanted left overs:) Thanks for sharing these great recipes, and all the great T-Tapp tips!
Ooo good for you! Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Just wondering how many 1 lb of meat will serve? I can’t wait to try this–we LOVE all your recipes 🙂
I “think” about six people, depending on appetites and how much sauce you put on noodles, etc. 🙂
Sounds delicious! Thank you for sharing.
You’re welcome! I had forgotten about this one, now it’s on my list of easy suppers for the school year!
