Crock Pot Beef Stroganoff
This Slow Cooker Crock Pot Beef Stroganoff Recipe was originally shared in February 2013. It is one of the first recipes we shared on Tammilee Tips. Thankfully since 2013, our photography has improved and I like to think it looks better than our original photography. I will let you be the judge of that. LOL!
John has been asking for this Beef Stroganoff Crock Pot meal for months. He absolutely loves Beef Stroganoff and wanted to see how it would turn out in the Crock-Pot
. I love that you can set up this easy beef stroganoff crockpot meal during the day and it cooks while you are working and spending the day, not in the kitchen.
It is super easy to prepare and made the house smell amazing. John came home and told me he was starving. Which was a good thing because there was quite a bit of Crock Pot Beef Stroganoff!
This is truly one of our favorite slow cooker recipes to make. It is so easy to make and tastes great on a cold winter night. I love that it is rich and creamy and oh so filling. A true comfort food.

How do you make Slow Cooker Crock Pot Beef Stroganoff Recipe
Ingredients needed
- Beef stew meat or chuck roast
- Onion
- Cream of Mushroom Soup
- Condensed Cream of Onion Soup
- Mushrooms
- Pepper
- Cream cheese
- Sour cream
- Egg noodles
- Salt and pepper
If you can't find Cream of Onion Soup you can use two cans of Cream of Mushroom. I had to make this change due to grocery store shortages and it worked great.
Beef Stew Meat or Chuck Roast - This meat is nicely marbled and cooks perfectly in the slow cooker. You will want to cut it into 2-inch pieces or ask the butcher if they have any pre-cut.
Egg Noodles - I like to use No Yolks Egg Noodles. I tried a generic brand of egg noodles one time to try and save a few pennies and I have to tell you it was not worth it. The egg noodles turned to mush. Stick with egg noodles you love and trust. If you don't have any egg noodles available you can use any short or small pasta.
Mushrooms - If you are not a fan of mushrooms on their own you can leave them out.
Equipment needed
Crockpot - This crockpot ceramic pot can be used on the stovetop to brown the beef and then placed back into the crockpot to finish cooking saving you from having to wash multiple pans. A great way to save time and get everything done on a busy day.
This Cuisinart Multi-Cooker allows you to brown the beef right in the pot and then change to slow cooking. Another great way to save on washing multiple dishes.
Kitchen Tongs - These make it super easy to brown the beef and move them around.
Steps to make Beef Stroganoff Crockpot Recipe
The first step is to brown the meat. You want to get a good browning on all sides of the cuts of beef.
Once the meat is browned you will add it to the crockpot, stir in the drained mushrooms, cream of mushroom soup, and cream of onion soup. If you can't find the cream of onion soup you can use two cans of cream of mushroom soup.
Cover and cook the meat and soup mixture for 8 hours on low or 4 hours on high. If you choose to cook it on high make sure to check it after a couple of hours to make sure it is not burning to the sides. You may need to stir it a few times.
After it has cooked in the slow cooker for 4 to 8 hours you will stir in the sour cream and cream cheese until they are melted and mixed in well.
Cook the egg noodles on the stovetop. It is up to you if you want to stir the egg noodles into the beef stroganoff or if you want to serve the beef stroganoff over the egg noodles.
This slow cooker beef stroganoff is so delicious and makes quite a bit! You can easily enjoy this for leftovers the next day.
Recipe Tips
If you are short on time you can skip browning the beef and toss it in the crockpot.
You can replace the stew meat with ground beef to make a ground beef stroganoff. About 1.5 pounds of ground beef browned will work great.
If you need this crockpot beef stroganoff done "quickly" you can cook it on high for 4 to 5 hours.
For a creamier beef stroganoff, you can switch out the sour cream for cream cheese. You will need to stir it a bit more to get it melted and mixed into the stroganoff.
If you are not a fan of egg noodles you can also serve this over mashed potatoes.
You can mix the egg noodles into the stroganoff mixture or place the creamy beef mixture over the top of the egg noodles. It is up to you depending on how you enjoy it. We tend to mix the egg noodles into the mixture so everything is nice and creamy.

Being that you brown the beef before hand couldn’t I Cook it on high in half the recommended time in the crock pot or no?
Becky
Looks yummy. So does corner beef and cabbage! I've got the stuff so I will be trying it in near future. Thank You!
Hopefully I will have good luck with this recipe. I hate the snow and cold too. I am still in denial. Maybe that will delay the cold!! Lol
Gail Currin
I am a dialysis patient and can not have any processed food, i.e,. canned soups, boxed meals and have to watch my sodium also. Do you have a Beef Stroganoff recipe without using soup? I also can not have mushrooms. I love stroganoff but I previously would use Lipton Onion soup mix which is too salty now for me. Any ideas? Thank you.
Lynne
Excited to make this, but I can't find cream of onion soup anywhere? I'm not sure what it is or what it looks like. Is there something I could substitute for that?
Adrianna
The only place I have ever found cream of onion is at Walmart 🙂
Amber
Great recipe!
Valerie Burnett
I have never seen cream of onion soup. Any clues on where could get it? The recipe calls for the cream of onion and cream of mushroom soup. Do I also add the one can of water like the can calls for? I really want to make this dish, just need clarification and cream of onion soup.
Tammilee
Hi, We found cream of onion at our local grocery store. You do not need to add in the water just the soup can contents.
Christy
we really enjoyed this. I used about half the sour cream and had to add some water while the meat cooked to keep it from drying out. It was a little bland for us but it was still good.
Amber
tried this meal tonight and it was good! Just too much cream cheese for me. I would make it again though, super easy and smells so good when it's done. I would definitely do in between 1/2 to 3/4 of the cream cheese and some more spices! I also added a tiny bit of water to give it some more moisture, and served it over buttered noodles.
John
By your picture of ingredients, it looks like you added 2 containers of sour cream and no cream cheese.
Ellen
How many people does the crock pot beef stroganoff serve?
Jerry San
Looks wonderful, i'll try it for sure in short, a quick question, some water added at step 2?
thank you sharing.!!
Laurie
Yum! I made this a totally forgot about the sour cream and cream cheese. The recipe was great without it. I did tell my husband and he was like, well that would have made it even better. I am cheap, so I will make it the same and just tell him I added it. I also added super cheap meat. I marinated it in garlic pepper and then just dumped the rest in. Super tender and yummy.
Dawn
Made this tonight and it came out amazing! The recipe doesn't say when to add the mushrooms so I just added it along with the cream of mushroom and other ingredients, heads up to anyone who is trying to peek through comments in question about that like I tried doing at first 🙂 Definitely will be making this again, thanks!!
Kimberly
You might want to include when to add the mushrooms in your recipe! Also.. 1 CUP of each of the soups, or 1 CAN? Recipe is kind of confusing. Please confirm -- Thanks.
Cassie
Im making this for my husbands work for tomorrow. Im wondering how many this will serve, or if I should double recipe.
Amy
Was wondering if this would work with just around of beef? Not too big on a lot of meat ..
Amy
Sorry I meant just one pound instead of two
Tammilee
I think you could easily change up the amount of meat that is in the dish. I don't think it will affect the recipe that much at all.
Lynn
This sounds so good. Have you ever used fresh mushrooms with this? Do you think it would work? Thanks for your help. Can't wait to make it. I love Stroganoff!
Samantha
This was soooo good... It turned out thick and creamy... which is great but i would add a little milk to the end of the cook time to thin it out a little bit... but my family loved it and they're picky eaters..
TRacy Mustin
I made this last night and it was a HUGE hit! Everyone loved it! And I'm not a onion fan but you can't even tell they are their.
Tammilee
Tracy, That is fantastic. Thank you so much for letting me know you loved the recipe.
Dede
This sounds like something my husband would love.
Tammilee
It is a huge favorite with my husband. Let us know if you make it.
Shash
I love crockpot recipes, thanks for this one.
Tammilee
Your welcome! I hope you enjoy it!
Alex
I am wondering how to turn this in to a freezer meal? I would like to make it ahead of time and just throw it in the crock pot and go. Would I do step 1 and 2. Freeze it. Then when I am ready throw it in a crock pot and complete steps 4-6 when we're ready to eat??
kelsey
Could you make this cooking it on high 4-6 hours?
Tammilee
Hi Kelsey, I have not tried it on high. I am not sure how it would work.
LaDonna
Hi I was wandering if you ment one can each of the soups, and when do you add the mushrooms? Dose it thin out or stay thick like at the beginning?
