The reviewer gave this recipe 4 stars. This recipe averages a 4.12 star rating.
Reviewed: Aug. 13, 2008
im only giving this 4 stars because of all of the changes everyone had to make. i had to almost double the cornstarch, didnt add any salt, only used 3 slices of bacon. i also thinly sliced round steak(was what i had on hand) and seasoned it with a ton of paprika, fresh cracked pepper, dry mustard, and some garlic powder before browning it. I used sliced fresh mushrooms and sauted them with the onions. I served this on top of homemade egg noodles and oven roasted brussel sprouts on the side. next time will decrease the broth amount by half and use the cornstarch as written in recipe

Whoa as me!!!! I was in such a hurry that I printed this recipe, but did not read the viewers comments......BEWARE!!!! DO NOT ADD 2 TBS OF SEASONED SALT!!! My instincts were telling me it was too much, but alas I did not pay attention. It was still good, just really salty. I also added fresh sliced mushrooms in the last 15 minutes of stewing and it was perfect. I added a little more sourcream and the next day when I warmed it up I had to add a little more water and cornstartch to thicken. I will definitely make this again

I didn't use any of the salt called for in this recipe. I used half low salt beef broth and half sherry. Threw in my usual garlic and onion powders and because I felt it was too liquidy, I added a can of low salt cream of mushroom soup. Fresh mushrooms and the leftover skirt steak I had worked well. Thank you Karena.

I am a guy who loves to cook so I thought I would try this beef stroganoff recipe. It turned out great! My personal modifications worked PERFECTLY!. I used good round steak, threw the cut up chunks in a plastic bag with seasoned flour and coated the meat well. Browned/cooked the meat until it was slightly crispy and the coating was nice and brown. I used fresh "Royale" mushrooms (wonderful!), not canned, cut into small pieces and sauteed separately from the meat. Same with the chopped up onions. Did NOT add (a)the bacon (too salty), (b)corn starch,(c)Worcestershire sauce, or (d)any salt. I used (1)can of Campbell's mushroom soup with (2)cups of water instead of beef broth. After all was ready, following the recipe I found here for times and such, put it all together in a dutch oven and let it simmer. It was still very salty so I added white wine (Chardonnay) until taste evened out the saltiness. Stirred in the sour cream just before serving, again to my own taste. First evening's dinner I used egg noodles and served to dinner guests. They went nuts! Loved it! Second night, used the leftover stroganoff over white rice for myself. Both times it was EXCELLENT! I guarantee this recipe will delight you and your friends.

This is a recipe that I make after a long day at work. Flavorful, easy and quick! I always salt to taste in recipes (unless its bread)and I never had a problem with salt levels. Fresh mushrooms instead of canned were perfect! It makes a lot of food...but I've never had better leftovers!!!

I was disappointed in this recipe. I guess I really didn't like the bacon flavor.

This was the best beef stroganoff I have ever made. My family really enjoyed it. I did however, use 1/2 of the season salt and a little less bacon. I also used chopped garlic when I sauteed the onion, celery, and bacon. I will definitely make this again. Thanks!

This was yummy! I was a little hesitent because of all the mixed reviews. It seems the biggest problem is with the salt but I figured this was an easy fix and decided to take a chance. I did leave out the salt entirely. I coated the meat in seasoned flour & simmered uncovered most of the time to reduce the liquid a little. I also added onion powder & pepper during simmering & to the final result. I noticed a thick film of grease on top so I had to keep trying to scrape some of this off. I also only added a couple spoons of sour cream. I served over egg noodles that I coated lightly with melted butter and a shake of garlic powder. Kids really enjoyed!!

OK..here's the deal. Please DO NOT use 2 Tbsp. of seasoned salt in this recipe! This has to be a typo. It's so salty you can't eat it. I made this recipe before & caught that mistake the last time, but...this time I was in a hurry & guess what? Poured in the whole amount of seas. salt..oh,yuck! Realized what I did as soon as I poured it in. I didn't want to pitch the whole thing so I tried adding a couple of peeled potatoes to it (supposed to absorb some of the saltiness...it didn't). I was talking to my sister & she suggested pouring all the broth out (just discard it) but not the meat,bacon or veggies & then rinsing all that off & starting over with more broth...it worked!! Only this time, I didn't use any salt at all & cut back on the Worcestershire sauce by 1/2. Perfect! It's a very good recipe if you don't screw it up :)

If I make this again I will flavor the beef with garlic powder and coat it with flour so it isn't so runny. I used 1 tsp of salt and it was plenty.

OMG! This is so good. I always go by the comments. The comments are what makes this site better than any cookbook. I didn't use any salt, went easy on the bacon and celery, doubled the cornstarch, halved the worcestrieiuilsue(sp?), and used fresh mushrooms. The best ever! Plenty of flavor with no extra salt and I'm a salt-a-holic.

This was wonderful! We loved it here, I used 1 teaspoon of seasoned salt as we rarely put salt on anything. I also used fresh mushrooms instead of canned, I loved the way they tasted sauted and put in at the end they didn't get mushy!

This recipe was different than the one I usually use for beef stronganoff. The sauce was a little thinner than I like but it made up for it in flavor (which my husband raved about). I did make a few changes - 1. I left out the celery because I didn't want to run to the store, 2. I used fresh mushrooms, 3. I left out the seasoning salt after reading some reviews. It was plenty salty with the beef broth and the worchestershire sauce, 4. I used lowfat sour cream. It is a good recipe and I'll be making it again.
