Crockpot Beef Stroganoff
When the weather cools off outside I enjoy creating delicious, hearty Crockpot dinners. My Crockpot Beef Stroganoff dinner is easy to prepare and cook. I use beef stew meat in this dish but you can use any beef that you like. If I'm short on prep time I use frozen meat. The key to a great tender and juicy beef dish is to cook the meat in a liquid for a long period of time at a low heat. This method is called braising and is used to tenderize less expensive and tough cuts of meat. I add sour cream to the pot at the end of cooking time. You can serve this dish over egg noodles. Happy Cooking!
