Instructions

  1. 1

    Season the chuck roast with salt and pepper. Brown the meat on all sides in a Dutch oven.

  2. 2

    Add the onion and beef broth, then bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook on low heat for about 3 hours.

  3. 3

    Take the beef out and pull it apart with two forks. Throw away any extra fat.

  4. 4

    Put the shredded beef back into the pot with the cooking liquid.

  5. 5

    Bring the liquid to a boil and add the egg noodles. Cook until tender, about 10 minutes.

  6. 6

    For thicker gravy, whisk the flour with a little water into a smooth paste. Stir it into the pot.

  7. 7

    Simmer for a few more minutes until the liquid thickens slightly.

  8. 8

    Taste and add more seasoning if needed. Serve hot.

Chef's tips

Cook the beef low and slow so it gets tender and shreds easily. Cook the noodles right in the beef liquid for the best flavor.

Storage

Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

Reheating

Reheat gently on the stovetop, adding a splash of broth if it has thickened too much.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • β€’Rushing the cooking time, which leaves the beef tough
  • β€’Cooking the noodles too long until they turn mushy

Serving suggestions

Serve over mashed potatoes, or keep them on the sideServe with a fresh green salad
