quick note about the mushrooms. You can rinse / wash your mushrooms in water. They don't pick up a lot of water. Serious eats, harold mcgee and others have written about how much water they absorb when being washed. This bit of thing, is handed down instructions when people never bothered checking.
I agree. I'd rather rinse my mushrooms than just wipe them; I have no idea what's in the growing medium and the mushrooms brown up just fine after rinsing.
Agreed, I once saw a video of a yt chef that did an experiment with it and weighed the mushrooms before and after washing. If the soaked up water, they should be heavier. They weren't. Since watching that, i always just rinse and toweldry my mushrooms and then let them dry a bit more on the counter before putting them in the pan. Way easier than handling and towel cleaning each individual mushroom 😅
I watched one of Jacques Pepin's videos a few years ago where he had his shrooms literally floating in a bowl full of water before cooking them. If Jacques does it, then I does it!
I love the time-saving techniques that keep high quality. Many chefs are all about show, but replicating their recipes at home is punishment. You are the gourmet for the everyman, a democratizer of domestic culinary bliss. Hands down, you have the best YT channel for home cooks.
What he said... definitely. The attention to detail is much appreciated. I like that you never skimp on the accompanying text directions. 1st class FoodTuber for sure. Keep up the good work.
Cooking it on a sheet pain seems like more of a pain.. How is cooking ground beef in a skillet for 6 minutes punishment? And its faster because you dont need to wait for the oven to hear.
I made this for dinner tonight, and it hit perfectly. I’ve been searching for a ground beef stroganoff recipe that checked all the boxes, and this is the one. I’ll be making this one again.
Woah. Just made this for the fam and it’s literally insane! Like I took a pilgrimage to the motherland and was gently cradled in the hefty arms of my imaginary German grandmother with every bite. Two thumbs up from my son. Two thumbs at a neutral medium from my daughter (hard to please). Our 1yo crushed it hard and swift and grunted for seconds. 5 stars.
Bri, ever since you showed Better Than Bouillon I added it to all my meat dishes that need a brown gravy (Italian Beef, Goulash, etc). It's made life so much easier. I love it. Thanks for introducing it to us!
Brian has become my favorite new online chef. I've made 4 recipes from his videos, all were amazingly tasty. Instead of the usual prompted comments from the family ("Did you like it?" "Uh, yeah. It was...okay") I get enthusiastic plaudits ("Wow! This is delicious!") and coming back for seconds and thirds. His videos are great, easy to follow, gives great tips on time and cost saving, and fun to watch!
LOL I bought Better Than Bouillon and was so stoked to try it. Went home and made my spaghetti, was proud of my dish, went in for the taste. It wasn't poppin. I open the fridge to see what i missed and there's the BTB jar sitting on the shelf unopened xD I forgot to use it. I'm gonna use it today in a "beef stroggi". That's what I've called it since a teen.
I don’t want to gush too much about BTB, but it has definitely changed my cooking game - and saved me a ton of money over the store bought boxed stuff that goes bad in the fridge when I only need a cup or two. Also, this is totally something my mom would make. We always had this ground beef version vs chunks.
Agree on that one, I love BTB and was so lucky to have discovered it on my own several years ago when I was very, very sick and for months only ate broths and simple grains. It sucked, but BTB made sumptuous, delectable broths I actually wanted to sip on. I started adding bits of it here and there to recipes and realized what a game changer it is. Just watch the sodium, as with any bouillon product. I made Bri's risotto the other day and way overindulged in the chicken BTB and knew I effed up when I went in to taste any my mouth puckered up :( A little can go a long way! And to that, Bri's sponsorship is attainable for most; a couple of jars on the site are like $7 each or so and the shipping is free, and those jars last a LONG time. Great sponsorship on YT (doesn't happen too often).
An added bonus for those of us whose transportation is public, such as a bus, a jar of BTB is one heck of a lot easier to transport than a few boxes of broth! Even with a rolling tote bag, I still have to lift it onto and off of the bus, so I'm limited on total weight of a grocery run. BTB for the lighter load win!
Okeydokey, my husband and I bought a bunch of the Better than Bullion products using your code. We are DEE-LIGHTED. We bought Italian Herbs, Mushroom, Sauteed Onion and Smoky Chipotle. Each one is brilliant. For lunch last week, instead of making an effort, I mixed a scoop of whipped cream cheese, a leftover chopped up hamburger patty, some pepper and a teaspoon of the mushroom. Served that on top of egg noodles and leftover peas.. Was a fast lunch and blew me away with flavor! Thanks BtB and Brian L. BTW, I still keep frozen chunks of your roasted butter chicken thighs in my freezer. Now I'm going to coat the same in the BtB chipotle and feel FINE about it.
I made this for dinner tonight and both me and my fiancé took a fork full and went "wow" at the same time. It is so amazing and I'm 100% adding it to my rotation. Thank you for such a fabulous recipe
I was hoping you would get to this recipe, because you're so right about how tasteless large chunks of ground beef can be. The tomato paste is brilliant. Just like when you put it in the chicken stock recipe. Tomato paste along with the Dijon mustard and fresh dill will send this over the top! Thanks so much!
YO! Okay - hell frick'n yes!!! Dude, as someone who appreciates the mid-western roots of this dish (I'm not from there but my Mother In Law who is an amazing cook is) I love the your absolute combination of your short cut for the Maillard goodness with the great steps to make the best daily Stroganoff yet. You get 3 x DAMs!!! for this. Love all of your videos and will absolutely support you now that I've found your channel.
FYI - I saw your videos in South Korea - I'm originally from South Korea (back in the 60s so I'm way older than you and a huge food fanatic), I honestly love how you guys were daring enough to open your minds to another cultures. I grew-up in the states when Korean stuff wasn't so trendy ((or necessarily wanted) so I love your perspective - positive or negative. Love you guys.
Nice job landing a Better Than Bouillon sponsorship, hope they sponsor more of your videos. I ordered 7 jars using your link, I didn't know they had so many flavors now, I live a small town and my local store that has it only carries chicken and beef. I got 2 mushroom, 2 onion, 2 Italian herb, and a seasoned veg, I already have a meal planned to be able to try all 4 in 1 dish.
I've made "Mom Style" stroganoff a lot in the last few years, and I riffed once and added caraway seeds for some Eastern European flair. It's certainly not authentic, but I make sure to add it every time I make it now, because it brings a little complexity to a very comforting dish.
I made this today. Actually, it was 2 batches -- 1 with mushrooms and 1 without (someone in the household refuses to eat them). Both were delicious, but the one with mushrooms was definitely the best. The family loved it. I served it with asparagus and peas cooked with miso butter on the side. 😋 Like you, I no longer buy premade stock, and I don't waste the time to make it either. BTB is great, and I keep it in the pantry. I love your channel and will definitely be trying other recipes. 💖💖💖💖💖
Most delicious! I followed the recipe 100%, took 75 minutes, and I would it again tomorrow! My husband was surprised a beef stroganoff could be this good! Rock on, Bri!
WOW Brian, this was really Excellent! Stroganoff is one of my favorite meals and I have used several different recipes through the years. Sometimes with steak strips, sometimes with ground beef. We love the flavor of the sauce in your recipe as well as the method of broiling the ground beef. Thanks for developing this recipe and for sharing.
First of all, this is fantastic. My wife has been "Jonesing" for this, but I wasn't going to make the Betty Crocker recipe we used when the kids were small. This is a grown-up version. Secondly, the full recipe here is HUGE for empty nesters. Since the ground beef packages we buy are 1.33 lbs, I reduced all the other ingredients by 1/3, and it was still a lot. This was made MUCH easier by using weight measurements for the ingredients. Thank you!
Came here to say I made this for dinner tonight as I had no clue what to make. It was tasty and I love the ground beef cooking method! This recipe is now in our rotation! Thank you
Brother, you are so right about the “Better than Bouillon”. I watch “Sam the cooking guy” (the shock jock of the cooking channel and I had to email him to ask how he makes his beef stock as it was typically dark as burnt coffee. His son emailed me back about the better than bouillon. So I’m a believer. Can’t wait to make this recipe. Thank you.
Now that he's got that sweet BTB deal, I think it's about time we put a name to the "water + gelatine packets + BTB/demi paste" combo. The "Lagerstrom Hack" is how I refer to it in my head.
Hi, Bri! I've been working my way slowly across your site, and made this one today. It's a blustery day and we both wanted some comfort food, and this delivered! I did make it a bit wetter than expected, having accidentally added more water to it, but it really didn't take away from the recipe for us as we both are lovers of sauce! It came together super fast, and was very satisfying!
Better Than Bouillon is one of the few sponsors I don't mind watching. I don't really bother buying or making stock anymore; just BTB and a little added gelatin is good enough for home cooking.
Yes!!! My roommate and I called it poor mans stroanoff because we were poor! It was a treat meal for us. That was 30 years ago and it still is one of my favorites! Thank You!
Can't wait to make this for my Dad, Bri, and thank you! Glad you scored a Better Than Bouillon sponsorship; I love that stuff and use it often (you're right, store bought stock is awful).
OMG! Literally read my mind. With grocery prices as they are, I was trying to figure out how to convert sliced beef recipes to ground beef recipes. And here this is! Wow. ❤🎉❤
Made the Sofrita Rice and Beans from last weeks recipe: Everyone loved it, so that's another recipe going into regular rotation. As luck would have it, I've also been considering a Stroganoff recipe to try out, and since I have so much ground beef but no cubed up beef, this seems like yet another recipe to try out this week.
Blahhh~ seems I have every single item except the mushrooms: Usually hit up my local Publix for the new ad on Wednesdays, so I guess that'll be the day I try it out.
Last night I made the gourmet version and used a New York strip and some artisan egg noodles It turned out delicious and I will definitely make it again, however I can’t wait to try your mom version as well. Ingredients have a lot of similarities but they are vastly different looking finished product. Glad I found this video!
I’ve been using Better than Bouillon for years. It’s simply the best. If my local grocery store is out of stock, I’ll either go elsewhere to buy it or cook something else that night.
WOO HOO!! Better Than Bouillon made the smart move and FINALLY decided to sponsor you! Love them already (I literally have their beef, roasted veggies, chicken and soffrito bouillons in my house at this very moment), but I'm sooo happy you scored a sponsorship!
This is one of my go-to meals during cold winter days (as well as pork green chili and potato leek soup). But I honestly find that cooking it all without cream and then finishing it with SOUR CREAM is the way to go. Cream makes it more umami and rich, but honestly between the mushrooms, ground beef (I use elk or ground venison) and broth it’s rich enough. Sour cream makes it quite creamy and adds a little zing.
Awesome video and recipe, I have to interject with a bit of culinary mythbusting, though. Washing mushrooms really doesn't make them soak up a significant amount of water. As long as you aren't leaving then to soak for hours, it won't appreciably add to the cook time. I usually toss my mushrooms on early to release their water while I'm doing my prep anyway, so much like using the oven to brown the beef, it's reasonably hands-off cooking until then.
Brian speaks the truth. Better Than Bouillon is great stuff. I use it in his spaghetti recipe, but I also add it to chili to make sure I have a really beefy tasting dish.
I made this a couple days after you posted it and it was amazing. The best I’ve ever had, let alone cooked myself. I’m back today to refresh myself before I make it again for dinner. Definitely a keeper
I plan to make this in the near future, but I just wanted to comment on your browning technique for the ground beef. Game changer! I just used the technique for a bolognese sauce and it really simplified the whole process.
Wow Brian - just made this this afternoon for six people including three teenage boys. They devoured it! There is a body of flavour here that really hits the mark and reminds me of my mom’s old stroganoff recipe from 40 years ago. Thanks for this one, my son told me to make it again.
You are my hero. I can already tell you I will be making this A LOT this fall/winter (and forever). We buy beef by the half cow and we have a TON of ground beef to use. UPDATE: I made it. It was delicious.
I made this recipe. It creates a *very* flavorful product. Protip for those of you feeding little ones or Midwestern parents: put a big dollop of sour cream on top of the dish when you serve it to them and encourage them to mix it in. That will turn the volume on the intensity of the flavors of this dish from a 9 to a 7 or so while still staying in the flavor family that they're used to (and creating a more pastel-looking finished product that they're also used to seeing). Meanwhile the adults can enjoy the more cheffed-up product.
Mr. Squizz, this was awesome! No mushrooms in our house, so we cut back on the flour a bit. Plus, since we bought xanthan gum for the Cacio e Pepe for a crowd, we used a bit of that instead of the gelatin. Maybe it's the dry white wine talking, but this was great! (In the written instructions, make sure "add worcet." is in step 5.)
Made this tonight and it was FANTASTIC! Thanks for sharing this. However, we used Redmond salt rather than your average run of the mill salt and thought it was a bit too much. Will likely reduce the amount next time we make it.
I never liked Stroganoff as a kid. Made this yesterday subbing half and half for the heavy cream. My partner and I ate it for our last 3 meals. Phenomenal as always Brian!!
Dude, so good! Your point about really crumbling the meat is clutch. Had a few missed pieces that were not fun to chew. I added some dill, it was nice.
This looks great. I have a much simpler stroganoff recipe I do for the weekdays, but I think I just found our next weekend meal. Now, we just need to see a pro version of whatever is going on with Hamburger Helper's Beef Noodle.
I went through a phase of pulsing browned ground meat in a food processor. The fine texture is awesome for bolognese, tacos, and sausage. A meat masher gets pretty close. It's such an easy level-up over mom's spatula method.
Actually... Alton Brown proved that rinsing mushrooms does NOT make them soggy or waterlogged. Neither does actually soaking them in water oddly enough.
As a kid my mom always just used a can of cream of mushrooom soup for the base. Was always tasty. This looks way more gourmet and probably tastes better.
I love BTB and am glad they're sponsoring you. I surely hope they're sponsoring Jeffrey from Pressure Luck Cooking by now, too! He's the one who first introduced the product to me like five or six years ago!
Love better than bouillon. I add the chicken one for my Midwester style chili with beans and the beef one for my Texas chili. So good and complements the dried peppers well
quick note about the mushrooms. You can rinse / wash your mushrooms in water. They don't pick up a lot of water. Serious eats, harold mcgee and others have written about how much water they absorb when being washed. This bit of thing, is handed down instructions when people never bothered checking.

I watched one of Jacques Pepin's videos a few years ago where he had his shrooms literally floating in a bowl full of water before cooking them. If Jacques does it, then I does it!
@@tychred Came here to mention exactly this. If Jacques Pepin says its okay to do, then its okay.
The line of thinking doesn't make sense to begin with. Like, so what if they absorb water? Aren't you gonna cook it all out anyway?
Finally snagged that BTB sponsorship...
Had it for a couple weeks
Came here to say the same thing.
Well earned by Brian AND by BTB.
Saw the brand and imagined dollar symbol in his eyes
Very happy fro Brian
Naughty By Nature - here Comes The Money plays
Yes! You deserve it because I bought BTB just because of your videos 😊😊😊
I love BTB ❤
I love the time-saving techniques that keep high quality. Many chefs are all about show, but replicating their recipes at home is punishment. You are the gourmet for the everyman, a democratizer of domestic culinary bliss. Hands down, you have the best YT channel for home cooks.
Thanks so much for saying that.
Sameeee I never thought of putting it in the oven
What he said... definitely. The attention to detail is much appreciated. I like that you never skimp on the accompanying text directions. 1st class FoodTuber for sure. Keep up the good work.

Totally off-subject, but I love your username! 😂
Nostalgic. This is probably the first Hamburger Helper dish I ever made when I was a kid. Still delicious.
So good. Even the boxed stuff
It’s still the top flavor imo
I made this for dinner tonight, and it hit perfectly. I’ve been searching for a ground beef stroganoff recipe that checked all the boxes, and this is the one. I’ll be making this one again.
Woah. Just made this for the fam and it’s literally insane! Like I took a pilgrimage to the motherland and was gently cradled in the hefty arms of my imaginary German grandmother with every bite. Two thumbs up from my son. Two thumbs at a neutral medium from my daughter (hard to please). Our 1yo crushed it hard and swift and grunted for seconds. 5 stars.
Beef stroganoff originated from Russia.
Should have done my stroganoff research
My gf calls it strokemeoff😂😅
😂😂😂
I'm super happy to see that Better than Bouillon finally got on board!! That stuff is amazing.
Bri, ever since you showed Better Than Bouillon I added it to all my meat dishes that need a brown gravy (Italian Beef, Goulash, etc). It's made life so much easier. I love it. Thanks for introducing it to us!
Brian has become my favorite new online chef. I've made 4 recipes from his videos, all were amazingly tasty. Instead of the usual prompted comments from the family ("Did you like it?" "Uh, yeah. It was...okay") I get enthusiastic plaudits ("Wow! This is delicious!") and coming back for seconds and thirds. His videos are great, easy to follow, gives great tips on time and cost saving, and fun to watch!

Okeydokey, my husband and I bought a bunch of the Better than Bullion products using your code. We are DEE-LIGHTED. We bought Italian Herbs, Mushroom, Sauteed Onion and Smoky Chipotle. Each one is brilliant.

BTW, I still keep frozen chunks of your roasted butter chicken thighs in my freezer. Now I'm going to coat the same in the BtB chipotle and feel FINE about it.
I like the way you give alternatives to classic recipes. I tried several of your recipes and they all taste delicious.
Better Than Bouillon is a legit game changer. I always have it stocked in my pantry and incorporate it into so many recipes.
thank you, thank you, thank you for using Better Than Bullion beef base. I use their products exclusively in my kitchen for a myriad of recipes.
I made this for dinner tonight and both me and my fiancé took a fork full and went "wow" at the same time. It is so amazing and I'm 100% adding it to my rotation. Thank you for such a fabulous recipe
Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you in your cooking.

The "Lagerstrom Hack" is how I refer to it in my head.

Holy shit an ad that actually felt like a real recommendation
Have made this twice now and its AMAZING!!! My kid and I made the recent one together, its so dang good!
This is so good, I have made it a couple of times already. Broiler browning the meat is brilliant! Thanks Brian!
I made this on Friday night. It was surprisingly delicious! Surprising because I've never added tomato paste to stroganoff before. It works!

Terrific recipe! Made this last night and the whole family loved it. Genius move, broiling the hamburger! So much more crust.
I made this for dinner last night and it was fabulous. I love this method. You are the best. Thank you 👍🏻👍🏻😋😋
I’d love more recipes for amped up versions of things mom used to make.
OMG! Literally read my mind. With grocery prices as they are, I was trying to figure out how to convert sliced beef recipes to ground beef recipes. And here this is! Wow. ❤🎉❤
It's like you read my mind!!! Been looking for a good stroganoff recipe for some time now and this is just in time for these cold fall nights
I’ll be making this tomorrow! And the Sloppy Joseph was amazing! Thank you Bri for keeping it real in the kitchen.

Brian - I have been so amazed by your teaching and techniques. Thank you for these incredible recipes and videos!
This dish is just as delicious as promised. The sauce is complex and comforting and, the recipe feeds a crowd. Thanks you guys
Last night I made the gourmet version and used a New York strip and some artisan egg noodles It turned out delicious and I will definitely make it again, however I can’t wait to try your mom version as well.

Made this tonight, absolutely delicious. Probably my favorite recipe I've gotten from you. Thanks so much!
Made this a few days ago, it was a hit! 10/10 for my first time trying beef stroganoff and my first Brian recipe.
So happy that they finally sponsored the channel!! Congrats Bry
I’ve been using Better than Bouillon for years. It’s simply the best. If my local grocery store is out of stock, I’ll either go elsewhere to buy it or cook something else that night.
WOO HOO!! Better Than Bouillon made the smart move and FINALLY decided to sponsor you! Love them already (I literally have their beef, roasted veggies, chicken and soffrito bouillons in my house at this very moment), but I'm sooo happy you scored a sponsorship!
Hell Frickin Yes! I'm making this for dinner tonight. Thanks Brian!
1:35 "mushroom growing medium"
Nice euphemism.
Just made this for my family and it was amazing!!! Thanks so much love your channel
This is one of my go-to meals during cold winter days (as well as pork green chili and potato leek soup). But I honestly find that cooking it all without cream and then finishing it with SOUR CREAM is the way to go. Cream makes it more umami and rich, but honestly between the mushrooms, ground beef (I use elk or ground venison) and broth it’s rich enough. Sour cream makes it quite creamy and adds a little zing.
This looks amazing and I love the browning the beef in the oven idea. Brilliant ❤
This looks really yummy Brian. Better than Bouillon is always in my fridge, it's honestly the best.
Awesome video and recipe, I have to interject with a bit of culinary mythbusting, though.
Washing mushrooms really doesn't make them soak up a significant amount of water.
As long as you aren't leaving then to soak for hours, it won't appreciably add to the cook time. I usually toss my mushrooms on early to release their water while I'm doing my prep anyway, so much like using the oven to brown the beef, it's reasonably hands-off cooking until then.
Brian speaks the truth. Better Than Bouillon is great stuff. I use it in his spaghetti recipe, but I also add it to chili to make sure I have a really beefy tasting dish.
I use Better Than Bouillon all the time. Fantastic product.
I made this a couple days after you posted it and it was amazing. The best I’ve ever had, let alone cooked myself. I’m back today to refresh myself before I make it again for dinner. Definitely a keeper
Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you in your cooking.
I plan to make this in the near future, but I just wanted to comment on your browning technique for the ground beef. Game changer! I just used the technique for a bolognese sauce and it really simplified the whole process.
Wow Brian - just made this this afternoon for six people including three teenage boys. They devoured it! There is a body of flavour here that really hits the mark and reminds me of my mom’s old stroganoff recipe from 40 years ago. Thanks for this one, my son told me to make it again.
Made this last night. As always it was amazing! Thanks so much, Brian!
hey Brian, followed the recipe and both hubby and I loved it! it’s going into our rotation! thank you ☺️
Love Better Than Bouillon - had no idea that wide range of flavors. I'll check more of them out. Thanks for sharing!
Perfect timing. Had some GB I needed to cook out today.
You are my hero. I can already tell you I will be making this A LOT this fall/winter (and forever). We buy beef by the half cow and we have a TON of ground beef to use.
UPDATE: I made it. It was delicious.
Brian, thank you so much for this recipe! I made it this past Sunday for our family dinner and it was amazing.
Definitely saving this. I’ve made stroganoff before, but the tomato paste and mustard sound great
Yay! Good old fashioned season one Weeds and Sardines adventures!
Wow, this tastes amazing! WIll be serving it for a family dinner when my parents come to visit. Thanks, Brian!
My wife said last night she wished you’d bring out this EXACT recipe! 🤯
🤙🤙🤠🤙🤙
@@BrianLagerstromwe've made this several times since the video came out and hits HARD every time!
Very rich and silky. Was eating it right out of the Dutch oven waiting for the noodles. Another great weeknighter.
I made this recipe. It creates a *very* flavorful product. Protip for those of you feeding little ones or Midwestern parents: put a big dollop of sour cream on top of the dish when you serve it to them and encourage them to mix it in. That will turn the volume on the intensity of the flavors of this dish from a 9 to a 7 or so while still staying in the flavor family that they're used to (and creating a more pastel-looking finished product that they're also used to seeing). Meanwhile the adults can enjoy the more cheffed-up product.
Mr. Squizz, this was awesome! No mushrooms in our house, so we cut back on the flour a bit. Plus, since we bought xanthan gum for the Cacio e Pepe for a crowd, we used a bit of that instead of the gelatin. Maybe it's the dry white wine talking, but this was great! (In the written instructions, make sure "add worcet." is in step 5.)
Made this tonight and it was FANTASTIC! Thanks for sharing this. However, we used Redmond salt rather than your average run of the mill salt and thought it was a bit too much. Will likely reduce the amount next time we make it.
You are a GENIUS, sir! Just made this and I’ve never had a Stroganoff like it. Thank you! 🙏🏼 ❤
I never liked Stroganoff as a kid. Made this yesterday subbing half and half for the heavy cream. My partner and I ate it for our last 3 meals. Phenomenal as always Brian!!
Dude, so good! Your point about really crumbling the meat is clutch. Had a few missed pieces that were not fun to chew. I added some dill, it was nice.
This looks great. I have a much simpler stroganoff recipe I do for the weekdays, but I think I just found our next weekend meal. Now, we just need to see a pro version of whatever is going on with Hamburger Helper's Beef Noodle.
You should start a "Hamburger Helper, But Better" series
I went through a phase of pulsing browned ground meat in a food processor. The fine texture is awesome for bolognese, tacos, and sausage.
A meat masher gets pretty close. It's such an easy level-up over mom's spatula method.
A pastry cutter works well, too😊
Actually... Alton Brown proved that rinsing mushrooms does NOT make them soggy or waterlogged. Neither does actually soaking them in water oddly enough.
HELL YES! Love the browning of the meat under the broiler. Brilliant. Thanks! Marty in New Jersey.
I have loved the Better Than Bouillon base for quite a while.
Brian is The People's Chef.
As a kid my mom always just used a can of cream of mushrooom soup for the base. Was always tasty. This looks way more gourmet and probably tastes better.
thanks for the recipe and the better than bouillon - which I just purchased, so Thanks!
You are ao right about browning ground beef utilizing the broiler. I'll never do it on the stovetop again!
I’ve been using Better than Boullion for years. I love it.
I love BTB and am glad they're sponsoring you. I surely hope they're sponsoring Jeffrey from Pressure Luck Cooking by now, too! He's the one who first introduced the product to me like five or six years ago!
I love the dancing. Please don't ever not stop stopping the dancing! 🕺
I put dill in the sauce as well and a little pickle brine and it is delicious.
If I'm not mistaken my dad used to add finely chopped pickles to beef stroganoff. Loved his version 🤍
Love better than bouillon. I add the chicken one for my Midwester style chili with beans and the beef one for my Texas chili. So good and complements the dried peppers well
Brian, Better than Bouillon is a awesome addition to any Kitchen thasnks for the recon! btw please add the us measurements too
