This is my home recipe for my beef stroganoff. What could go wrong with simply delicious cooked casserole beef in a slow cooker for 8 hours.
A great slow cooker recipe!
I don't use sour cream, only heavy cream for the last 2 hours of cooking and cornstarch for the last hour. You can serve with some pasta shells, mashed potato, vegetables or rice. I like to make a big batch and freeze the leftovers.

At home, I always use a dry stroganoff seasoning. It makes it easier and still tastes just as good as one from scratch.
