Additional recipe notes

*You can use a fattier roast like blade or chuck for the most tender and juicy beef, but since we’re using the cooking liquid as part of our sauce I prefer to choose a lean roast like sirloin or round so my sauce isn’t too fatty. **The original recipe had the egg noodles cooked right in the sauce. You can do this if you like, but I find the results are less consistent. If you wish to cook the noodles in the slow cooker, add with the cream in step 4.

Storage & reheating safety

For cooked, perishable leftovers, refrigerate within 2 hours (1 hour above 90°F), using shallow containers for prompt cooling. Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below, use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days, and reheat hot leftovers to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer. Follow any shorter package limit.

These are general safety limits, not a tested storage or freezing recommendation for this particular dish. USDA leftovers guidance · Safe cooking temperatures
