Pin This RecipeThis time of year I love to have soup for dinner. Soup is easy to make and warms us up on these cool Fall nights. This Steak Soup has quickly become a new favorite. We’ve made it several times in the past few weeks and just can’t seem to get enough of it.
The soup starts with browning some chopped roast and then tossing it in the slow cooker with some beef broth, onion soup mix, tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce. About 15 minutes before you are ready to serve the soup, toss in some egg noodles and let them cook until tender. I love that the noodles cook in the slow cooker!
This Slow Cooker Steak Soup is SO delicious! It is hard to believe that something so simple can taste so good. Serve this with some crusty bread for a complete meal! Comfort food at its best.

This recipe had a 100% success rate with my family of 7! Every child from ages 4-14 raved. Thanks!
Can u make this soup on the Stove instead of a crock pot?
yes
I loved it! My husband wanted vegetables in it, though, so for leftovers the next night, I added a small bag of peas & carrots and that was great, too!
Can I make this in my instant pot? If so how long? Thanks!
I’m sure that you can. I have never made this in the pressure cooker, so I can not say how long to cook it.
I would like to add potatoes and baby carrots to this. When would I add them in? Thank you!
By the way, I made this and it was absolutely amazing. Everyone loved it!
I would add them at the beginning. If you want the veggies to be crisper, add them a little later.
Can you use something else instead of dry onion soup?
You can use anything you want
I REALLY want to make this but I’ve looked all over and cannot find a sirloin tip roast. What would you recommend to sub for it? Thank you so much!
Any pot roast should work fine.
Instead of noodles (someone here hates them!), if I substitute barley, any recommendation on how much to use and when to add in the cooking process?
I’ve never cooked with barley, so I can not say.
Would this work in a crockpot? I don’t have a slow cooker
A crockpot is a brand of slow cooker
This turned out fantastic! However, the turning out of mine was more like beef stroganoff than a beef steak soup. Nonetheless, it was a yummy hit for our family!
What’s your experience on cooking the roast 8 hours? Unless it’s a fatty cut of meat that will be very dry. I thought doing it floured and browned as you say, then adding the roast and drippings towards the end.
My experience is that cooking a roast for at least 8 hours makes it fall apart tender and juicy. Most pot roast cuts need to be cooked a long time because they are tough pieces of meat.
SLOW COOKER THE MEAT WILL BE TENDER
I use beef tips
I just saw the cook time on this. (It’s noon.) Can I cook on high for 6 hours?
Yes
This was so good!!! I left out the tomato paste and added mushrooms. It was devoured!!
Instead of egg noodles can you use chopped potatoes? If so when do you add them to the cooker?
This is our favorite soup. Last night we did it on the stovetop and simmered it for about 90 minutes. Made homemade noodles for it. It has such great flavor, thick and rich broth. We really love it. Great recipe!
This soup is rich and fantastic. I cooked the soup a little longer than 8 hours because I was working so the meat fell apart. But is meat so tender that it falls apart really an issue?!! No way! Will be making again.
Hello, I have a 6qt crock pot but I am wondering if I can cook this on high instead of low and how long would that take. Was wanting to make it today, but 8 hrs. will be too late. Any info. would be much appreciated!
I’m sure that would be fine.
We had this tonight for supper with some crusty garlic bread. We also made some homemade noodles for it. It is my new favorite. So delicious. The kids thought it would also be good with potatoes, carrots, and celery…almost like a pot roast soup!
i would just have to add carrots, celery and onion to this and i would use thin noodles also sounds so good
Would it be possible to cook on high for a shorter period of time?
Sure
What would be the time to put it on “high” in my slow cooker?
Maybe 4 hours?
Can u use left over roast beef for the meat?
If you use already cooked meat you can reduce the cooking time.
This was AMAZING!The people adding cream soup and sour cream crack me up!! They are just turning your fantabulous recipe into beef stroganoff. WaaLaa!! 2 meals from you.
I wasn’t sure anyone in the family would like it BUT…it was a huge hit! We are not big red meat eaters but they loved it! I used a sirloin steak and a New York strip cut in cubes. Made garlic knots to go with it. Only 1 bowl leftover with 4 people eating. Thanks for a great meal!!
I am doing this like right now yummy
Can this be made on the stove??
Sure. I’m not sure what the cooking time would be. You’ll just have to test the meat for tenderness.
That"s what I am going to do & I am also going to add sliced carrots to the crock pot. I used a recipe & a half & can"t wait to have some tomorrow night. Also I am using beef stock instead of broth. I hope thats alright ? Elaine
Beef stock should be just fine. Enjoy!
My husband doesn't eat ANY type of soup.. but loves beef tips & gravy over egg noodles. I'm going to try this to see if it could be a contender on our menu line-up!
Good Luck!
So excited to try this for dinner tonight. I used good quality stew meat and will add whole wheat egg noodles. Hope it turns out as good as yours looks. Thanks for sharing.
It's in the crockpot for dinner tonight. So excited to try it tonight. I had good quality stew meat so I used that. I will also add whole wheat egg noodles. Hope it turns out as good. Thanks foe sharing.
Can you use rib eye steak meat instead of sirloin tip?
I’m sure that would be fine
Can you use the frozen egg noodles?
Can you use rib eye meat instead of sirloin tip?
the better cut would probably break down more and not give a good texture
I hope it's as good as everyone has said it is. Got it cooking right now. ????????????
I made this a couple of weeks ago, but doubled the noodles, as I wanted more of a beef and noodle type meal. My husband's 2nd cousin (10 year old) is a VERY picky eater and he asked for seconds! His grandma was SHOCKED, I gave her the recipe so she would make it for him. I am making it again for supper tonight and hope to have plenty of leftovers!
Looks gorgeous!! What flour do you use? Plain?
Yes – all-purpose flour
ok to cook for 6 hours or must it be 8?
You can try it for six
You might want to have it on high for the last hour or so, if you only cook it for 6 hours.
I used deer tenderloin cut it up into cubes and browned. Cooking it as we speak I will let you know what hubby thinks tonight.
The ingredients, is this TWO 1/4 pound sirloin beef tip roasts? Or a single "2 and 1/4" pound sirloin beef tip roast?
How many people does this serve would you think? I am having my family over on Sunday and was thinking maybe I should double it?
This was absolutely fabulous (and easy!). Definitely a do-again!
We used little over twice the noodles (12 oz. bag), cut up beef roast into 1 inch squares and used the whole can of tomato paste (6 oz.) and it was SO GOOD.. We even tweaked it for an electric pressure cooker so it's done in an hour!!!
3. Place meat into electric pressure cooker. Add onion soup mix, beef broth, tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce. Use Stew/Meat setting and let cook for 40 minutes.
4. Add noodles, cover and cook on SLOW cook setting for 20 minutes.
Trying this recipe now in my Instant Pot..I hope it tastes as good as it smells! 🙂

Use good meat if you are not cooking for long. If you go the whole 6-8 hours a cheaper cut will do. I don't onion soup because no matter what it is in, I can taste it. And if you want to try something a little different, cut a rutabaga in qtrs and throw one in for taste. I don't like rutabagas as a rule but that really gives soups and stews alot of flavor.
I have made this twice. My 17 yr old grandson especially loves it.
I don't have a crock pot. Can I make this in the oven after I brown the meat on top of the stove?
I'm wondering if you can use potatoes instead of noodles?
Could you use stew meat?
Absolutely. I’ve used stew meat before and it is fine. Enjoy!
Trying it today with venison. Hubby cut up meat last night and put cider vinegar on to help get rid of wild taste. Smells good already.
Can you make this without browning the steak?
sure – enjoy!

I added an onion and 2 garlic cloves and omitted the onion soup mix. Delicious!
Made this tonight & was fantastic! Wouldn't change a thing!! Thumbs up????
Was Fantastic!! Wouldn't change a thing. Thumbs up��
Tried the soup but used cream of chicken soup instead of french onion and no flour due to cream of chicken soup and it turned out really well.
Great flavor… my only critique is that the broth is VERY rich and thick. Next time I will add at least 1 cup water to it, possibly two.
If you want it thinner, you might want to substitute cup of tomato juice for the tomato paste
I have been wanting to make this and never have the 8 hours it takes. So I browned my beef tips this morning and put everything but the noodles in the crockpot. Will pop the crock in the cooker in the morning and see how it goes.
Made this, used sirloin steak. Used an entire bag of egg noodles and increased the amount of liquid, as I was making for a larger group. Everyone enjoyed it. Was very good. Definitely will make again 🙂
Could I use ny strip in this?
I don't have any tomatoe paste, is it necessary? I have everything to make this tomorrow, but the paste.
I'm sure it would taste fine without the tomato paste. Enjoy!
can you do this on the stove top as well because I usually don't have the time to start the crockpot and wait several hours
In the crock pot now. I used stew meat (they were out of sirloin) and only about 1/2 tsp of flour mixture so I just dumped it all in with the meat. Looks and smells yummy, can't wait to taste it!

Felicia, how was it?
I put in the crock pot at 11:30 on low could it be ready at 5pm or should I put it on high for the last hour?
I probably wouldn't hurt to put in on high for an hour.
Is it possible to make the same recipe in my crockpot on High for 4 hours?
I haven't tried it, but it should be fine.
I did, and it was fine!
Why throw your flour mixture away? I would mix into the drippings from browning the meat then add the broth to it. It isn't enough flour to make it overly thick.
Feel free to make the recipe to your personal preferences.
Can you put cream of mushroom soup into this to make it more creamy and thick?
My family wondered the same thing… I think we'll try it next time.
I make my own copycat mix. I haven't bought Lipton soup mix in years. Use onion powder, dehydrated onion, Knorr sodium free beef bouillon powder, celery salt to taste or not. Google copycat onion soup.
Thank you!!!
I would stir in some sour cream before serving-
That sounds delicious!
Does anyone know if they make a reduced sodium onion soup mix. This really sounds good, but the soup mix is so high in sodium. any suggestions?
I wish but I think not. What could you use in place of it??
Google low sodium French onion soup and there is a great substitute recipe. I use it with Salisbury Steak recipe. My husband loves it.
Try googling it. There might be a salt free version on the web.
What size crockpot did you use? Also, could veggies be added in? If so, at what point in cooking? Thanks in advance!,
I would add carrots…IMO
You can add whatever you like
I add fresh mushrooms, fresh green beans, even pre-cooked/left over grilled Prime Rib 😋 ….added sauté shallots &
modified spices, due to steaks were rubbed before grilling
May I ask what size crockpot you used? -Also, could veggies be added into the soup. And if so, at what point? Thank you in advance.
You could put any veggies you would like in, for a crock pot I would put in for last hour of cooking time
What size crockpot did you use? I used a 5qt and it as ready much faster than 8hrs on low. I will adjust and give it another try.
what size crockpot did you use? I used a 5qt and mine was ready in much less than 8 hours…will plan accordingly next time.
Could I use stew meat with this? I have so much of it 🙂
I think that would be fine.
Made this tonight for dinner and it was delicious! The only thing my brother-in-law said besides yum and this is good, was – the next time, could we make it with venison? I think I'll try that later. Thanks for a great addition to my dinner rotation.
Have you tried? That's what I put in the crock pot this morning 🙂 we will see
I'm tying it with venison, tonight. I'm sure it will be great.
This looks delicious! Do you think it would work with beef I browned the night before & put in the fridge overnight?
absolutely
When adding noodles towards the end, do I add cooked noodles or just right out of the bag? Just curious! Thank you 🙂
uncooked noodles – they will cook in the crockpot
Would this work with an Insta pot/ pressure cooker? Wondering what the timing and cooking difference would be?
I doubled up on the onion soup mix and added steak spice to the flour/salt/pepper.
Thank you – this looks so good! Looks like we'll be having steak soup Friday night!
This looks like a really good soup Steph – I especially like the egg noodles in it.
Could you make this and then freeze it?
absolutely!
I would suggest not putting the pasta in if you freeze this – then put then in when ready to eat.
Yes, it freezes well.
Yes, it freezes well.
I have an entire freezer full of beef we just got so this is happening. Like next week! YUMMY!
My husband’s favorite
I agree not to add the noodles because I freeze any leftover
My husband like green beans so I get the single serving for him
Happy husband happy evening hahahaa
