Ultimate Beef Stroganoff {Slow Cooker}

Posted In: Recipes, Slow Cooker

When Bill went to Ireland, he knew I was making the crockpot freezer menu. I asked him which meal he wanted me to take out and cook for his return. Ultimate Beef Stroganoff Crockpot is the one he picked. Great choice Bill! I love that man. He knows I’m not a fan of mushrooms so he told me to make it without. Yeeha!

Ingredients

2-3 Pounds Stew Meat cubed
1 Teaspoon Salt
1/4 Teaspoon Black Pepper
1 Medium Onion diced
1/4 Teaspoon Garlic Salt
1 Tablespoon Worcestshire Sauce
1 1/2 Cup Beef Broth or Stock
1 Tablespoon Ketchup
1/3 Cup Flour
6-7 Tablespoon Apple Juice or Water
4-8 Ounces Fresh Mushrooms sliced
1/2 Cup Sour Cream

Instructions

Place the stew meat, salt, pepper and onion in the freezer bag.
Combine the garlic salt, Worcestershrie sauce, beef broth and ketchup. Pour over the meat.
Defrost in refrigerator the night before. Place in crockpot.
Cook for 7-9 hours on low or 4-5 hours on high.
About 30 minutes before serving, combine the flour and apple juice in a small bowl, whisking vigorously to combine well. The roux should be thick but still pourable so add a tablespoon of apple juice or water at a time to thin, if needed. Pour the flour mixture into the slow cooker, whisking quickly to mix in the roux with the stew meat and juices and to avoid lumps. Add the mushrooms and stir.
Cook on high for 30 minutes. Stir in ½ cup sour cream right before serving. Serve over pasta, rice or baked potatoes.
