Budget friendly, family friendly!\nALSO KNOWN HAS HAMBURGER STROGANOFF\nBeef stroganoff with ground beef is definitely a comfort food dish. For me, it’s up on the list near fried chicken and okra.

I get asked for this recipe a lot!\n– Tina\nFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:\nWhat do you serve with ground beef stroganoff?\nI always serve ground beef stroganoff on top of egg noodles. Then I like to have a nice vegetable side dish like some\nMaple Glazed Carrots,\nor\nItalian Green Beans\n.\nI don’t like sour cream, what else can I use?\nSour cream is a pretty integral in flavor to beef stroganoff. You can substitute with plain Greek yogurt. Or you can leave it out if you just really don’t like the taste. In this recipe I use cream of mushroom soup so it is plenty creamy without the sour cream if you really just can’t stand the flavor.\nWhich ground beef is best for this?\nYou want to use one that has some fat. That’s where you get good flavor. So I generally use an 85\/15 ground beef. You don’t need anything fancy here. Use what is within your budget. If you want to avoid draining any grease, try using a lean meat like 90\/10.\nHow do I store leftovers?\nLeftovers can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I don’t recommend freezing as sometimes the creamier ingredients tend to separate when you go to reheat it.\nINGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)\nground beef\n– if you use a lean meat, you won’t really have any grease to drain. You could also easily make this with ground chicken or turkey.\nonion\n– if you don’t like onion, just leave it out.\ngarlic\n– this recipe works well with freshly minced garlic or the jarred garlic (whichever is easiest or whichever you prefer.)\nsalted butter\n– you can use unsalted butter.\nall-purpose flour\nbeef broth\n– if you want to keep the sodium down, try using low or no salt beef broth.\nsour cream\n– this is a love\/hate ingredient but it is essential to any stroganoff recipe so I don’t recommend skipping it. You could substitute with plain Greek yogurt or creme fraiche.\ncream of mushroom (or chicken) soup\n– I have recipe for\nHomemade Cream of Mushroom Soup\nand\nHomemade Cream of Chicken Soup\nif you prefer homemade.\negg noodles\nHOW TO MAKE GROUND BEEF STROGANOFF:\nBring a pot of water to boil and begin to cook egg noodles according to package directions. In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown ground beef along with the onions and garlic until thoroughly cooked. I like to leave chunks of ground beef and not break it up too small. Drain ground beef to remove excess grease from pan. Put pan back on stove over medium heat (don’t add the ground beef back in yet.) Add butter to pan and let it melt.\nThen add flour to pan, whisk and let it absorb butter. Now add beef broth and whisk vigorously to remove any lumps, turning the heat up to high, bringing it to a boil for 2-3 minutes until you see it thicken slightly.\nBring temperature down to medium and whisk in sour cream and cream of mushroom soup. Stir until mixture is thoroughly incorporated. Add salt and pepper. Keep tasting mixture until it is seasoned the way you like. I probably use a good teaspoon and half or more of salt and pepper. If it gets too thick on you, just add a tad more beef broth. Add ground beef back to mixture. Stir and then allow to simmer for about 5 minutes. \nServe over egg noodles.\nCRAVING MORE RECIPES?\nHomemade Cream of Mushroom Soup\nGround Beef Wellingtons\nChicken Stroganoff\nInstant Pot Hamburger Helper Stroganoff\nBeef Stroganoff Cups\nAmish Country Casserole\nCrock Pot Salisbury Steak\nGarlic Parmesan Beef Pasta\nCreamed Chipped Beef\nS.O.S.

Then I like to have a nice vegetable side dish like some [Maple Glazed Carrots,](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/maple-glazed-carrots\/) or [Italian Green Beans](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/italian-green-beans\/).\n\n**I don’t like sour cream, what else can I use?**\n\nSour cream is a pretty integral in flavor to beef stroganoff. You can substitute with plain Greek yogurt. Or you can leave it out if you just really don’t like the taste. In this recipe I use cream of mushroom soup so it is plenty creamy without the sour cream if you really just can’t stand the flavor.\n\n**Which ground beef is best for this?**\n\nYou want to use one that has some fat. That’s where you get good flavor. So I generally use an 85\/15 ground beef. You don’t need anything fancy here. Use what is within your budget. If you want to avoid draining any grease, try using a lean meat like 90\/10.\n\n**How do I store leftovers?**\n\nLeftovers can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I don’t recommend freezing as sometimes the creamier ingredients tend to separate when you go to reheat it.\n\n![a plate of egg noodles topped with hamburger stroganoff with text on the photo that say \"Ground Beef Stroganoff\".](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/MAIN-IMAGE-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff-2.jpg)\n\n### INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)\n- **ground beef** – if you use a lean meat, you won’t really have any grease to drain. You could also easily make this with ground chicken or turkey.\n- **onion** – if you don’t like onion, just leave it out.\n- **garlic** – this recipe works well with freshly minced garlic or the jarred garlic (whichever is easiest or whichever you prefer.)\n- **salted butter** – you can use unsalted butter.\n- **all-purpose flour**\n- **beef broth** – if you want to keep the sodium down, try using low or no salt beef broth.\n- **sour cream** – this is a love\/hate ingredient but it is essential to any stroganoff recipe so I don’t recommend skipping it. You could substitute with plain Greek yogurt or creme fraiche.\n- **cream of mushroom (or chicken) soup** – I have recipe for [Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/homemade-cream-of-mushroom-soup\/) and [Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/cream-of-chicken-soup\/) if you prefer homemade.\n- **egg noodles**\n\n![egg noodles, ground beef, garlic, cream of mushroom soup, milk, beef broth, sour cream, butter, salt and pepper](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/IMG_8722-1024x610.jpg)\n\n## HOW TO MAKE GROUND BEEF STROGANOFF:\nBring a pot of water to boil and begin to cook egg noodles according to package directions. In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown ground beef along with the onions and garlic until thoroughly cooked. I like to leave chunks of ground beef and not break it up too small. Drain ground beef to remove excess grease from pan. Put pan back on stove over medium heat (don’t add the ground beef back in yet.) Add butter to pan and let it melt.\n\n![collage of two photos: cooked ground beef in a skillet' melted butter in a skillet.](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/process-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg)\n\nThen add flour to pan, whisk and let it absorb butter. Now add beef broth and whisk vigorously to remove any lumps, turning the heat up to high, bringing it to a boil for 2-3 minutes until you see it thicken slightly.\n\n![collage of two photos: flour added to melted butter in skillet; beef broth added to skillet.](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/process-2-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg)\n\nBring temperature down to medium and whisk in sour cream and cream of mushroom soup. Stir until mixture is thoroughly incorporated. Add salt and pepper. Keep tasting mixture until it is seasoned the way you like. I probably use a good teaspoon and half or more of salt and pepper. If it gets too thick on you, just add a tad more beef broth. Add ground beef back to mixture. Stir and then allow to simmer for about 5 minutes.\n\n![collage of two photos: sour cream added to skillet; cooked ground beef added to back to skillet.](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/process-3-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg)\n\nServe over egg noodles.\n\n![Creamy Ground Beef Stroganoff served on cooked egg noodles with a fork inserting into the egg noodles.](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/Creamy-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg)\n\n### CRAVING MORE RECIPES?\n- [Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/homemade-cream-of-mushroom-soup\/)\n- [Ground Beef Wellingtons](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/ground-beef-wellingtons\/)\n- [Chicken Stroganoff](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/chicken-stroganoff\/)\n- [Instant Pot Hamburger Helper Stroganoff](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/instant-pot-hamburger-helper-stroganoff\/)\n- [Beef Stroganoff Cups](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/beef-stroganoff-cups\/)\n- [Amish Country Casserole](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/amish-country-casserole\/)\n- [Crock Pot Salisbury Steak](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/slow-cooker-salisbury-steak\/)\n- [Garlic Parmesan Beef Pasta](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/garlic-parmesan-beef-pasta\/)\n- [Creamed Chipped Beef](https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/creamed-chipped-beef\/)\n- [S.O.S.

I get asked for this recipe a lot\! – Tina ## FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: What do you serve with ground beef stroganoff? I always serve ground beef stroganoff on top of egg noodles. Then I like to have a nice vegetable side dish like some [Maple Glazed Carrots,](https://www.thecountrycook.net/maple-glazed-carrots/) or [Italian Green Beans](https://www.thecountrycook.net/italian-green-beans/). I don’t like sour cream, what else can I use? Sour cream is a pretty integral in flavor to beef stroganoff. You can substitute with plain Greek yogurt. Or you can leave it out if you just really don’t like the taste. In this recipe I use cream of mushroom soup so it is plenty creamy without the sour cream if you really just can’t stand the flavor. Which ground beef is best for this? You want to use one that has some fat. That’s where you get good flavor. So I generally use an 85/15 ground beef. You don’t need anything fancy here. Use what is within your budget. If you want to avoid draining any grease, try using a lean meat like 90/10. How do I store leftovers? Leftovers can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I don’t recommend freezing as sometimes the creamier ingredients tend to separate when you go to reheat it. ![a plate of egg noodles topped with hamburger stroganoff with text on the photo that say "Ground Beef Stroganoff".](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/MAIN-IMAGE-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff-2.jpg) ### INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE) - ground beef – if you use a lean meat, you won’t really have any grease to drain. You could also easily make this with ground chicken or turkey. - onion – if you don’t like onion, just leave it out. - garlic – this recipe works well with freshly minced garlic or the jarred garlic (whichever is easiest or whichever you prefer.) - salted butter – you can use unsalted butter. - all-purpose flour - beef broth – if you want to keep the sodium down, try using low or no salt beef broth. - sour cream – this is a love/hate ingredient but it is essential to any stroganoff recipe so I don’t recommend skipping it. You could substitute with plain Greek yogurt or creme fraiche. - cream of mushroom (or chicken) soup – I have recipe for [Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup](https://www.thecountrycook.net/homemade-cream-of-mushroom-soup/) and [Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup](https://www.thecountrycook.net/cream-of-chicken-soup/) if you prefer homemade. - egg noodles ![egg noodles, ground beef, garlic, cream of mushroom soup, milk, beef broth, sour cream, butter, salt and pepper](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_8722-1024x610.jpg) ## HOW TO MAKE GROUND BEEF STROGANOFF: Bring a pot of water to boil and begin to cook egg noodles according to package directions. In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown ground beef along with the onions and garlic until thoroughly cooked. I like to leave chunks of ground beef and not break it up too small. Drain ground beef to remove excess grease from pan. Put pan back on stove over medium heat (don’t add the ground beef back in yet.) Add butter to pan and let it melt. ![collage of two photos: cooked ground beef in a skillet' melted butter in a skillet.](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/process-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg) Then add flour to pan, whisk and let it absorb butter. Now add beef broth and whisk vigorously to remove any lumps, turning the heat up to high, bringing it to a boil for 2-3 minutes until you see it thicken slightly. ![collage of two photos: flour added to melted butter in skillet; beef broth added to skillet.](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/process-2-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg) Bring temperature down to medium and whisk in sour cream and cream of mushroom soup. Stir until mixture is thoroughly incorporated. Add salt and pepper. Keep tasting mixture until it is seasoned the way you like. I probably use a good teaspoon and half or more of salt and pepper. If it gets too thick on you, just add a tad more beef broth. Add ground beef back to mixture. Stir and then allow to simmer for about 5 minutes. ![collage of two photos: sour cream added to skillet; cooked ground beef added to back to skillet.](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/process-3-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg) Serve over egg noodles. ![Creamy Ground Beef Stroganoff served on cooked egg noodles with a fork inserting into the egg noodles.](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Creamy-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg) ### CRAVING MORE RECIPES? - [Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup](https://www.thecountrycook.net/homemade-cream-of-mushroom-soup/) - [Ground Beef Wellingtons](https://www.thecountrycook.net/ground-beef-wellingtons/) - [Chicken Stroganoff](https://www.thecountrycook.net/chicken-stroganoff/) - [Instant Pot Hamburger Helper Stroganoff](https://www.thecountrycook.net/instant-pot-hamburger-helper-stroganoff/) - [Beef Stroganoff Cups](https://www.thecountrycook.net/beef-stroganoff-cups/) - [Amish Country Casserole](https://www.thecountrycook.net/amish-country-casserole/) - [Crock Pot Salisbury Steak](https://www.thecountrycook.net/slow-cooker-salisbury-steak/) - [Garlic Parmesan Beef Pasta](https://www.thecountrycook.net/garlic-parmesan-beef-pasta/) - [Creamed Chipped Beef](https://www.thecountrycook.net/creamed-chipped-beef/) - [S.O.S.

Readable Markdown	This is the best Ground Beef Stroganoff. It’s a flavor-filled creamy hamburger gravy that is delicious served over egg noodles. Budget friendly, family friendly\! ## ALSO KNOWN HAS HAMBURGER STROGANOFF Beef stroganoff with ground beef is definitely a comfort food dish. For me, it’s up on the list near fried chicken and okra. I love the humble roots of stroganoff. It isn’t pretentious, it uses simple ingredients and it is a cheap dish that can easily feed your entire family. Just some ground beef, seasonings, an easy gravy mix and boom – dinner is served\! ![ground beef stroganoff shown served on a round white plate with a fork holding up a small serving.](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/1st-image-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff-.jpg) ![](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/people.png) I have made this recipe for years and I am sorry that I waited so long to say thank you for such an amazing keeper of a recipe! It’s an easy version of a childhood favorite, and I almost always have the ingredients on hand! I get asked for this recipe a lot\! – Tina ## FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: What do you serve with ground beef stroganoff? I always serve ground beef stroganoff on top of egg noodles. Then I like to have a nice vegetable side dish like some [Maple Glazed Carrots,](https://www.thecountrycook.net/maple-glazed-carrots/) or [Italian Green Beans](https://www.thecountrycook.net/italian-green-beans/). I don’t like sour cream, what else can I use? Sour cream is a pretty integral in flavor to beef stroganoff. You can substitute with plain Greek yogurt. Or you can leave it out if you just really don’t like the taste. In this recipe I use cream of mushroom soup so it is plenty creamy without the sour cream if you really just can’t stand the flavor. Which ground beef is best for this? You want to use one that has some fat. That’s where you get good flavor. So I generally use an 85/15 ground beef. You don’t need anything fancy here. Use what is within your budget. If you want to avoid draining any grease, try using a lean meat like 90/10. How do I store leftovers? Leftovers can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I don’t recommend freezing as sometimes the creamier ingredients tend to separate when you go to reheat it. ![a plate of egg noodles topped with hamburger stroganoff with text on the photo that say "Ground Beef Stroganoff".](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/MAIN-IMAGE-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff-2.jpg) ### INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE) - ground beef – if you use a lean meat, you won’t really have any grease to drain. You could also easily make this with ground chicken or turkey. - onion – if you don’t like onion, just leave it out. - garlic – this recipe works well with freshly minced garlic or the jarred garlic (whichever is easiest or whichever you prefer.) - salted butter – you can use unsalted butter. - all-purpose flour - beef broth – if you want to keep the sodium down, try using low or no salt beef broth. - sour cream – this is a love/hate ingredient but it is essential to any stroganoff recipe so I don’t recommend skipping it. You could substitute with plain Greek yogurt or creme fraiche. - cream of mushroom (or chicken) soup – I have recipe for [Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup](https://www.thecountrycook.net/homemade-cream-of-mushroom-soup/) and [Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup](https://www.thecountrycook.net/cream-of-chicken-soup/) if you prefer homemade. - egg noodles ![egg noodles, ground beef, garlic, cream of mushroom soup, milk, beef broth, sour cream, butter, salt and pepper](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_8722-1024x610.jpg) ## HOW TO MAKE GROUND BEEF STROGANOFF: Bring a pot of water to boil and begin to cook egg noodles according to package directions. In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown ground beef along with the onions and garlic until thoroughly cooked. I like to leave chunks of ground beef and not break it up too small. Drain ground beef to remove excess grease from pan. Put pan back on stove over medium heat (don’t add the ground beef back in yet.) Add butter to pan and let it melt. ![collage of two photos: cooked ground beef in a skillet' melted butter in a skillet.](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/process-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg) Then add flour to pan, whisk and let it absorb butter. Now add beef broth and whisk vigorously to remove any lumps, turning the heat up to high, bringing it to a boil for 2-3 minutes until you see it thicken slightly. ![collage of two photos: flour added to melted butter in skillet; beef broth added to skillet.](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/process-2-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg) Bring temperature down to medium and whisk in sour cream and cream of mushroom soup. Stir until mixture is thoroughly incorporated. Add salt and pepper. Keep tasting mixture until it is seasoned the way you like. I probably use a good teaspoon and half or more of salt and pepper. If it gets too thick on you, just add a tad more beef broth. Add ground beef back to mixture. Stir and then allow to simmer for about 5 minutes. ![collage of two photos: sour cream added to skillet; cooked ground beef added to back to skillet.](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/process-3-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg) Serve over egg noodles. ![Creamy Ground Beef Stroganoff served on cooked egg noodles with a fork inserting into the egg noodles.](https://www.thecountrycook.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Creamy-Ground-Beef-Stroganoff.jpg) ### CRAVING MORE RECIPES? - [Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup](https://www.thecountrycook.net/homemade-cream-of-mushroom-soup/) - [Ground Beef Wellingtons](https://www.thecountrycook.net/ground-beef-wellingtons/) - [Chicken Stroganoff](https://www.thecountrycook.net/chicken-stroganoff/) - [Instant Pot Hamburger Helper Stroganoff](https://www.thecountrycook.net/instant-pot-hamburger-helper-stroganoff/) - [Beef Stroganoff Cups](https://www.thecountrycook.net/beef-stroganoff-cups/) - [Amish Country Casserole](https://www.thecountrycook.net/amish-country-casserole/) - [Crock Pot Salisbury Steak](https://www.thecountrycook.net/slow-cooker-salisbury-steak/) - [Garlic Parmesan Beef Pasta](https://www.thecountrycook.net/garlic-parmesan-beef-pasta/) - [Creamed Chipped Beef](https://www.thecountrycook.net/creamed-chipped-beef/) - [S.O.S.
