Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 to 3- pound chuck roast
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 packet brown gravy mix
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 24 oz frozen Reames egg noodles

Method
 

  1. Prepare the slow cooker: Place the chuck roast in the slow cooker.
  2. Season the beef: Sprinkle the brown gravy mix and ranch seasoning over the roast.
  3. Add liquids & butter: Pour in the beef broth and place the butter on top of the meat.
  4. Slow cook: Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4-5 hours until the beef is tender and easily shreds.
  5. Shred the beef: Remove the roast from the slow cooker, shred it with two forks, and return it to the broth.
  6. Add the noodles: Stir in the frozen egg noodles and cook on high for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are fully cooked.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Ladle into bowls and serve warm.

Notes

  • For a thicker broth, mix 1-2 tablespoons of cornstarch with cold water and stir it in during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
  • To make it creamy, add a splash of heavy cream before serving.
  • For extra flavor, sauté onions and garlic before adding them to the slow cooker.
  • Leftovers taste even better the next day! Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
