Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Beef
In your slow cooker, combine the beef, onion, garlic, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
Step 2: Slow Cook to Perfection
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the beef is incredibly tender and easily shreds with a fork.
Step 3: Cook the Noodles
While the beef is cooking, prepare the egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and toss with butter and Parmesan cheese.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy!
Divide the noodles among bowls and top generously with the tender beef and its delicious sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

Tips for Tip-Top Beef Tips
- For extra depth of flavor, sear the beef in a hot skillet before adding it to the slow cooker.

- Add extra veggies! Carrots, mushrooms, or peas would be delicious additions.
