Notes
- For best flavor, use fresh beef stew meat, trimmed of excess fat.
- You can substitute egg noodles with other pasta varieties like pappardelle or wide fettuccine.
- If you prefer thicker gravy, you can mix an additional teaspoon of cornstarch with water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and can be reheated on the stovetop or microwave.
- To make it gluten-free, substitute the brown gravy mix and noodles with gluten-free alternatives.
