Beef and noodles ingredient list:

Chuck roast
Beef broth
Worcestershire sauce
Seasoned salt
Pappardelle noodles
Butter

How to make Crock Pot beef and noodles:

Add your chuck roast to the slow cooker and pour the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and seasoned salt on top. Simple seasonings, but totally perfect in this dish.

Cover and cook on high for 4 hours, or cook on low for 8 hours. Keep in mind that all slow cookers cook differently. Some run hot and some run cool. 4 and 8 hours are the general time frame, but you’ll want to slow cook until the meat is easily shredded with a fork.

About 20 minutes before you are done with your meat, start on the noodles. Boil a large pot of water and cook your pappardelle noodles as directed on the package.

Drain the noodles and return to the pot. Shred the beef, taste and add additional Worcestershire or seasoned salt, and then add the beef to the pot of noodles.

Add butter to the pot and then toss to coat and stir everything together.

Tips & Notes:

All slow cookers cook differently and some run hotter than others. 4 hours on high and 8 hours on low is just a guide. Continue cooking your roast until it easily shreds apart with 2 forks. It should be very tender and fall apart easily.

For faster cook times, cube the roast into smaller pieces before placing in the slow cooker.

Add cooked broccoli, peas, and carrots to add some veggies to this dish.
