Very good dish! I didn't have the requisite 8 hours, so I took a reviewer's suggestion and browned the meat in a skillet before cooking it on high for about 5 hours. It was perfectly tender. I used 2 lbs of stew meat and made extra of the beef broth mixture, to which I added a pinch of pepper. I didn't have condensed beef broth, just beef stock, and the result was still a tasty dish. Rather than mix flour with water at the end, I used reserved broth mixture. It's a very good dish, even without the mushrooms (which we don't like), but I think maybe I'll try a little more seasoning next time.

This recipe will be added to our favorites for sure. It was easy to make and tasted wonderful! We are not big fans of egg noodles so we used home made mashed potatoes and we both were ready to take a nap when we were finished. It's a meal you can hurt yourself with. Thanks lizeroo for the wonderful recipe.

We have had a variety of these recipies --- this one stands out for it's quality gravy (for the noodles) and the tenderness of the beef. I used a round steak for the meat and ketchup for the tomato paste (my DH doesn't like tomatoes so I sneak in ketchup in place of tomatoes in recipies and he doesn't even know it!!) Anyway - very good -- highly recommended!
