When time is tight I always lean on my trusty slow cooker. Recently, I partnered with the brand synonymous with slow cooking – Crock-Pot – to try their new CrockPot Express Crock Multi Cooker, and this delicious Beef Stroganoff is the result. Creamy, saucy and loaded with tender beef and noodles, this will be your new, go to recipe because it’s made in one pot and under 30 minutes.

Crock-Pot has been a trusted name in slow cookers since the 1970’s. The slow cooker provides the flexibility to prepare a meal early and let it cook all day. You can go about your day’s activities and still enjoy a nutritious, home-cooked meal in the evening. No stress, just good home cooking!

And with the Crock-Pot® Express Crock Multi-Cooker, you can cook meals up to 70% faster than traditional cooking? True!

The Crock-Pot Express Crock Multi-Cooker combines the functions of a pressure cooker, slow cooker, steamer, allows for sauté and browning, and has 8 built-in preset buttons that cook a variety of meals.

Crock-Pot recently launched two new Express Crock Multi-Cooker models, and they are now available in 4-Quart and 8-Quart sizes, in addition to the 6-Quart model I use for the below recipe. I love it, especially when crunched for time and everyone is hangry (if you catch my drift)!

My first thought was to make one of my favorite comfort food meals, beef stroganoff.

The Crock-Pot Express Crock saved time while we were in the middle of the house remodel – it was incredible! Definitely how I will be making this beef stroganoff moving forward I tell you.

My Beef Stroganoff in a Crock Pot Express is creamy, saucy and loaded with spiced, tender beef, mushrooms and noodles. Made in one pot and under 30 minutes!
Servings: 4
Prep: 5 minutes
Cook: 24 minutes
Total: 29 minutes

Ingredients 

Instructions 

  • Set the 6-Quart Crock-Pot Express Crock Multi-Cooker to the Brown/Saute setting.
  • Season beef with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in the Crock-Pot Express Crock. Add half of the beef and cook until browned, about 3 minutes, stirring often. Set aside and repeat with remaining beef (See Note 1).
  • Add the garlic, onion, mushrooms, paprika and optional cayenne powder. Sauté, stirring until onions are tender, about 3 minutes. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute more.
  • Stir in beef broth, Worcestershire and add the browned beef. Close lid and steam valve. Select Soup setting, be sure pressure is set to High, and set time for 12 minutes. When finished cooking, quick release pressure according to manufacturer’s directions.
  • Stir in egg noodles, close lid and steam valve. Select Soup setting, be sure pressure is set to High, and set time for 5 minutes. When finished cooking, quick release pressure according to manufacturer’s directions.
  • Remove lid and stir in the sour cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately and sprinkle with parsley.

Notes

  1. You want the beef to brown on all sides, and if too crowded the meat will steam, so work to brown in 2 batches. I often times will add Berbere spice along with black pepper. It’s an Ethiopian spice blend; warm, very aromatic and a house favorite. This is for a little kick of heat. Either just black pepper and/or Berbere is completely optional.

    I’ve used this recipe multiple times, and it always works! Over time, I’ve tweaked it by adding more mushrooms, less paprika and a couple of big tablespoons of tomato paste. I use fusilli which works perfectly. I’ve also used some wine in place of stock to give it a little extra oomph.

    I tried it this last night and followed the recipe exactly. It was delicious and no dry noodles! I will make this again 🙂
    Thanks!

    1. Hi Nicki!
      My first guess would be doubling the recipe but that would be too much. Maybe half the recipe and see how that works. OR check out the Crock Pot Express site to see how to adapt and see if others have had this issue from a 6 qt recipe! Thank you for checking out my recipe!

      1. Alright, I’ll try that…. most recipes are for the 6 quart. I’m going to try this one and see what happens! I appreciate your time and help!

    This recipe tasted good but something goes wrong with the amount of liquid allocated within the recipe. The noodles do not cook completely and the entire meal is dry. I have tried it exactly as written twice only to have the same thing occur. Maybe need to have more broth? Also, need to clarify whether the noodles are stirred into the mix or whether they are just dropped into the pot without stirring. Without stirring, the noodles lay on top of everything and get hard on some of the edges. If mixed, the noodles cook but not completely because the entire pot is dry…noodles become sticky and meat dry as well. However, the taste is exceptionally good.

    1. Not quite sure how yours got dry Dee. Mine is always rather saucy. Does your seal ring possibly allow steam to release? Also, I did indeed specify in Step 5 to “Stir in egg noodles, close lid and steam valve. Select Soup setting, be sure pressure is set to High, and set time for 5 minutes. When finished cooking, quick release pressure according to manufacturer’s directions.”

    We exchanged the steak for ground beef and added celery and bell peppers. It was delicious and so awesomely easy to make. Thank you.

  5. This recipe was my first crock pot express experience. So fantastic!!! The pasta went overcoocked but the rest turned out fabulous!
