This Slow Cooker Beef Tips Recipe reminds me of a dish my grandmother used to make when I was a child. She served it with rice but noodles work too!
Now she didn’t serve beef very often because of the expense. Her meats were primarily chicken and pork and mostly just on Sundays.
Most of her weekday meals consisted of beans and potatoes of some type. She was a very frugal cook.
Even so I still remember this dish simmering slowly on the back of her stove. (I don’t think slow cookers were even around then!)
I never had her recipe but this slow cooker version comes very close. Most of my relatives that have had it agree.

Slow Cooker Beef Tips With Rice Or Noodles
- 2 yellow onions finely chopped
- 16 ounces white mushrooms quartered
- 4 pounds beef chuck roast cut into 1-inch cubes
- 4 cups beef stock divided
- 1/2 cup red wine
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 12 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- Parsley to garnish if desired
- Place the onions and mushrooms in the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker, then top with the cubed beef.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2½ cups of the beef stock, the red wine, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Pour over the beef, place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours.
- Place the flour in a small bowl and gradually whisk in the remaining 1½ cups of beef stock. Stir into the beef mixture, place the lid back on and cook on high for an additional hour.
- When ready to serve, cook the egg noodles according to the package directions. Drain, return to the pot, and toss with 2 tablespoons of salted butter.
I make this a complete meal by simply adding a salad and rolls. I love the gravy-like consistency of the sauce on the egg noodles. Easy, simple and almost completely hands-off – my kind of meal nowadays!
