If you want to speed up dinner, there are oven and Instant Pot instructions in this post too!
Slow Cooker Pot Roast Beef Stroganoff combines a classic comfort food with a melt-in-your-mouth chuck roast used in our Classic Pot Roast. Slow cooking is hands down one of the best ways to cook chuck roast. The long cooking time takes turns this inexpensive cut of beef tender and juicy and easy to shred.
Brown the Chuck Roast
If this is your first time making a Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff, you might be tempted to dump all the ingredients in and be on your way. It’s worth all the extra flavor to sear the chuck roast first before adding it to your slow cooker. Unlike a lot of dump and go crockpot recipes, it’s important to blend your sauce before pouring over the beef so it gets evenly distributed.
This Slow Cooker Pot Roast Beef Stroganoff recipe uses almost cooked egg noodles so they soak up in the flavors of the mushroom sauce quickly without getting mushy. Cook them about a minute shy of the package directions right before you add them to the slow cooker.
Slow Cooker Pot Roast Beef Stroganoff is a good potluck dish or for an easy meal prep for busy weeknights. If you are making this dish ahead of time, you should only add the noodles if you are planning to freeze it. If you want to make Slow Cooker Pot Roast Beef Stroganoff for easy grab-and-go meals during the week, refrigerate the beef and sauce separate from cooked noodles.

I plan to make this in the oven. I would like the bite sized pieces vs shredded beef.
I have 2 questions:
1. Do I sear the entire roast, then cut into pieces?
2. When cut into pieces, does it reduce the cooking time in the oven?
Thank you for your help.
This looks really tasty and can’t wait to try it!
If you cut it into cubes and then sear you’ll need to play with the timing because it’ll significantly change the cook time. I haven’t tested it so I’m not sure what the exact timing would be though. If you’re going to go that route, make sure to cut it first and then cook. Don’t wait til the end to cut it. Hope this helps.
Delicious dinner, makes enough for an army! I made it with wine and beef broth. Needs a little more salt to sauce and I will add a slurry next time to thicken it a bit. Husband says this is a keeper!?
Thanks for coming back to let me know, Dawn. So glad you all enjoyed it.
will omitting the mushrooms completely change the recipe? I seriously hate mushrooms.
It will change the flavor and a bit of the texture but if you hate them, just leave them out.
This is so good! I added 2 cans of cream of mushroom to mix and thicken the sauce.
At what stage of the cooking do you add the two cans of cream of mushroom soup? Do you just omit the extra mushrooms?
This is easy & tasty, but the sauce is runny; not like stroganoff creamy sauce. Is there also way to have a creamy sauce?
You could add a roux to thicken the sauce next time.
How do i make this with no mushrooms. I’m severely allergic. Thank you.
You can simply just leave them out. It will adjust the flavor though.
I’m confused. After the egg noodles cook do I add sour cream to the noodles or put them in the crock pot with the gravy?
Thank you for all of your recipes that you share. Being a senior citizen I appreciate the simplicity of the recipes. I cook for just my husband and I and am able to scale them down. They are yummy too.
Add the noodles and the sour cream to the slow cooker together, theyre all mixing together to make the gravy and be smothered in it. I like to pull the beef apart with the forks first, but totally up to you. I hope you enjoy the recipe, this is our favorite one so far this year.
I am making this recipe in a Dutch oven. I hate to sound ignorant, but after I cook the vegetables, do I leave them in there while it’s all cooking in the oven? And do I cook it with the lid on the Dutch oven? It looks delicious and I’m super excited to try it!
If you’re using a dutch oven, it’s ok to leave everything in there to cook with the lid on. Enjoy!
I grew up eating Beef Stroganoff and this pot roast version is pure genius. It’s cheaper than buying steak but tastes just as good if not better. Yum!
Can I half this recipe? And if so whats the cooking time?
You may need to use a smaller slow cooker size so that it doesn’t dry out since it’ll cook faster. You may need to cut the time by about half if left in a larger slow cooker. I haven’t tested it so just keep an eye on it and check it often. Good luck!
The perfect fall apart roast, so delicious. This is comfort food at its best. Everyone adored this. Thank you.
You’re welcome, Lily. So glad you all enjoyed it.
Made this in the Instant Pot. The meat was absolutely fall-apart perfect. For our tastes, I had to make a slurry to thicken the sauce enough and added more sour cream . . . because you cannot ever have enough sour cream.
Thanks for coming back to let me know how much you enjoyed it. I appreciate the 5 star rating.
Are rice noodles OK for use in this recipe?
You’re best to substitute with fettuccine or linguine. I’ve not tested it with rice noodles.
Hi, Sabrina. Although I ‘m sure this recipe does deserve 5 stars, I haven’t tried it yet. I just wanted to thank you not only for your inspiring dishes, but also for the brightness you add to our days when we receive your emails. Thank you.
You are so sweet, Rhonda.
