    An enduring family favorite, Slow Cooker Beef and Noodles has stood the test of time. Serve the cooked beef chunks over a bed of fluffy egg noodles in a thick broth for a substantial and savory dish. As the beef cooks slowly, its tastes develop and it becomes so soft that it almost melts in your mouth. Even though the exact dish’s origin is unknown, the fact that beef and noodle dishes can be found in many different cuisines throughout the globe attests to the dish’s popularity and adaptability.
    A few suggestions that go well with this meal are these:
    1. Steamed veggies: To brighten up the meal with color and freshness, serve a side of gently steamed veggies like green beans, broccoli, or carrots. The savory meat and noodles are cut through with the fresh, colorful veggies.

    Second, some crusty bread, like garlic bread or a baguette, would be great for mopping up the flavorful soup. It guarantees that no mouth-watering tastes go to waste while also adding a wonderful texture.

    Thirdly, a side salad of mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and a light vinaigrette provides a welcome counterpoint to the hearty beef and noodles. It takes the dish to the next level by enhancing its color, texture, and brightness.

    1. In a skillet set over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Coat the chuck roast with cooking oil and sear it until golden brown. Put the roast on low heat.
    2. Toss the chopped onion and garlic into the slow cooker with the Italian seasoning. If desired, add sliced mushrooms.

    4. Add salt and pepper according to your preference.
    The beef should be soft and readily shreddable after 6-8 hours of low cooking (or 4 hours on high). 5. Cover and simmer.
    6. Cook the egg noodles as directed on the packet, about 30 minutes before you want to eat them. Eliminate waste.
    Seven, in the last fifteen minutes of simmering, add in the heavy cream (or cornstarch mixture) if you like a creamy sauce.

    8. Top the cooked egg noodles with the meat that has been shredded using two forks.
    9. If needed, reassess seasoning by tasting.
    Savor the flavorful meat and noodles cooked in a slow cooker.
