    Ingredients

    • Chuck roast: Is the perfect cut of meat for slow cooking! When cooked low and slow in the crockpot it gets fall apart tender.
    • Onion and garlic: Get sautéed before adding them to the crockpot. This extra step along with browning the roast adds so much flavor!
    • Beef broth: Flavors and adds moisture to the roast. This is also the liquid that they egg noodles are cooked in.
    • Italian seasoning: Helps to flavor the roast. You can use fresh herbs if you have them on hand. A sprig of fresh rosemary and thyme would be amazing in this!
    • Worcestershire sauce: Adds a bit of Unami flavor to the broth. You could also add a splash of soy sauce instead.
    • Egg Noodles: Are cooked in the slow cooker after the roast is done cooking. I have had some other readers use the Reames egg noodles with success too!
    • Sour cream: Helps to thicken up the sauce and makes it creamy with a hint of tang!
    • For serving: I like to serve parmesan cheese and parsley on the side for people to top their bowls with!
