Instant Pot Beef and Noodles
This recipe reminds me a lot of the Mississippi Beef Noodles. They are both made with frozen egg noodles and a roast. They both have a vinegar-y tang. Both are absolutely delicious! However, this recipe has ingredients that I am personally more likely to have around the house. I will definitely be making this in the future. It was gobbled up in no time.
- Where do you find frozen egg noodles? Look in the freezer aisle at your grocery store. I found mine by the frozen breads. The kind that I used were the “Grandma’s” brand. They look more like thick fettuccine noodles than egg noodles. They taste like homemade pasta and I think are a non-negotiable in making this recipe! If you want you can also use regular dry egg noodles. Add them into the pot but only pressure cook for 5 minutes instead of 10.
- What kind of roast can I use? I used a chuck roast that was trimmed of excess fat and cut into quarters. You can also use a rump roast.
- I used my 6 quart Instant Pot Duo 60 7 in 1*. You can also make this in an 8 quart pot. To make in the 3 quart pot halve all the ingredients and keep the cooking time the same.

Instructions
Instant Pot Instructions:
- Take the frozen noodles out of the freezer and lay them on the counter to thaw.
- Add broth, vinegar, garlic, onion powder, oregano, thyme, parsley, salt, pepper and chuck roast into Instant Pot.
- Cover Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 60 minutes. When time is up let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes. Move valve to venting, remove the lid.
- Place the roast on a cutting board.
- Add the noodles into the pot and break apart as much as you can. Cover the Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 10 minutes. While the noodles are cooking shred up the meat. When time is up on Instant Pot move valve to venting and remove the lid.
- Stir the meat into the pot and let the liquid absorb into the noodles and meat for a few minutes.
- Eat and enjoy!
Slow Cooker Instructions:
- Add broth, vinegar, garlic, onion powder, oregano, thyme, parsley, salt, pepper and chuck roast into slow cooker.
- Cover and cook on low for 7 hours. Remove the beef and shred. Add it back into the slow cooker.
- Add the noodles into the slow cooker and cover completely with liquid.
- Cover slow cooker and cook on low for 1 more hour, stirring every now and then so the noodles don’t stick to the sides of the crockpot. Break up the noodles as you can.
- Eat and enjoy!

My family loves all the recipes that I have made thus far. The vinegar was overpowering. Is there anything that you can substitute?
You could leave out the vinegar and just add it to taste after it has pressure cooked
I used half red wine and half vinegar and it was just about right for us.
Hello. I enjoy your recipes. This one sounds good. However, I am confused about the frozen noodles. I don’t recall seeing this product in my local stores. What brand? Can you supply a link or picture? If I can’t find frozen noodles, will any noodle or pasta be Ok to use? thanks, Dianne

Sure, Look in the freezer aisle at your grocery store. I found mine by the frozen breads. The kind that I used were the “Grandma’s” brand. They look more like thick fettuccine noodles than egg noodles. They taste like homemade pasta and I think are a non-negotiable in making this recipe! If you want you can also use regular dry egg noodles. Add them into the pot but only pressure cook for 5 minutes instead of 10.
I made this tonight. My family has loved all of your recipes so far. We like vinegar, but the vinegar flavor just overpowered this dish. The meat was tender, noodles were good ~ just TOO MUCH VINEGAR!
Hi Karen, this sounds amazing and I’d love to try it. I have a small pork roast sitting in my freezer, could I use that instead? I think it’s 1 1/2 lbs, maybe 2lbs. Would I reduce the amount of broth/vinegar? And would I need to pressure cook for less time?
I bet that would be tasty! I would give it a shot. Since the pork roast is whole I would keep the cooking time the same.
Please add your notes (dry noodles vs frozen, type of roast, etc) into the Recipe notes section. Once I print the recipe, this important information disappears.
Okay I will try to start doing that! Sometimes people get mad when the recipe is too long and it wastes toner.
I always read the entire recipe and if there are notes or tips that aren’t included in the print version, I just add them. Same for things I want to remember from the Reviews.
