This Beef Noodle Soup Recipe combines tender chunks of beef, white button mushrooms, onion, celery, carrots, and egg noodles, all simmered to tasty perfection.
The broth is the perfect blend of flavors with salt, fresh ground black pepper, and a few common dried herbs like marjoram, thyme, and rosemary. Enjoy this tasty soup with crusty baguettes and soft, sweet, creamy butter. If you like this soup, try beef vegetable soup, beef barley soup, and lasagna soup.
Ingredient Notes and Substitutions
See the complete ingredients on the recipe card below.
- Butter: Salted or unsalted.
- Mushrooms: You can substitute cremini mushrooms for white button mushrooms.
- Chuck roast: For optimal taste, I like to use chuck roast for this recipe. Trim it up and cut it into bite-size pieces. You can also purchase pre-cut beef stew meat. It might be a chuck roast or a hodgepodge of pieces and ends from different cuts.
- Beef broth: Preferably low-sodium.
- Seasonings: Dried marjoram or oregano, dried thyme and rosemary, bay leaves, and fresh parsley, thyme, or rosemary.

Preparation Tips

Ingredients
- 2½ tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 8 ounces white button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 2 ribs celery, chopped
- 3 large carrots, peeled and chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2-3 lbs beef chuck roast, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces
- Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper
- 8 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 1 teaspoon dried marjoram or oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon crushed rosemary
- 2 bay leaves
- 8 ounces wide egg noodles
- Chopped fresh parsley, thyme, or rosemary
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large Dutch oven or large soup pot over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 2-3 minutes, until they start to brown.
- Add the onions, celery, and carrots, cooking until the onions and celery are softened and the carrots start to soften. Reduce the heat to low and add the garlic, cooking for 1 minute while stirring. Spoon the veggie mixture into a bowl and then cover the bowl with a loose paper towel.
- Sprinkle the beef with kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper. Add a little more vegetable oil to the pot and add the beef chunks. Cook until browned on both sides. Add the beef broth, marjoram, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves. Bring the mixture to a boil, then cover and simmer for about 1 hour or until the beef is fork-tender.
- Add the egg noodles and cook for about 5 minutes. Spoon the veggies that you put into the bowl back into the soup pot and continue simmering for another 5-7 minutes, or until the egg noodles and carrots are fork-tender.
- Remove the bay leaves and garnish with fresh chopped parsley, thyme, or rosemary. For best results, serve promptly.
Notes
- If this is the case, pull out the amount of soup you will refrigerate or freeze before adding the pasta. When you go to reheat the soup, bring it to a boil, then quickly reduce it to a simmer. Add the pasta and cook until it reaches your desired tenderness. This will keep the pasta from becoming mushy.
