Crock Pot Beef and Noodles

Used a venison backstrap instead of beef. Added an additional two cups of beef broth when I added the noodles because there was hardly any fluid left. The flavor was really good. The pasta got too mushy. Next time, cook pasta separately or use a different type of pasta.

Overall I thought this beef and noodle recipe was very good. However when it came time to add the noodles there wasn’t enough liquid to cook the noodles properly. So I added more beef broth. Probably should have added even more - maybe another 1-1/2 cups. Didn’t need to thicken the liquid because there was so little. I used beef stew meat instead of Chuck roast thinking that would be easier. Maybe that generated less liquid. But everything turned out very good.

I did mine in the cast iron Dutch oven
