This is comfort food to the max! When I make my homemade chicken and noodles I thought...hummmm, why not with beef? Your grandma would come to YOUR house for dinner! My hubby's words: "It just doesn't get any better then this"

Ingredients

1 1/2 c all purpose flour
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp onion powder (not onion salt)
1/4 tsp garlic powder
3 lb cubed beef
dash(es) vegetable oil (for your skillet to fry your beef)
1 10 1/2 oz can beef consomme (soup can size)
6 c water
1 32oz carton of beef broth
1 large white onion, diced in large pieces
1/2 c chopped fresh chives, (the green part of your scallions)
1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp soy sauce
FOR THE NOODLES
1 tsp baking soda
6 large eggs
3 c all purpose flour

Steps:

1. Cube up 3 pounds of rump roast (or any other roast). In a large sauce pan add with your beef broth, diced onion, soy sauce, worcestershire sauce and chives.
2. In a medium size bowl add your flour, onion powder, garlic powder and black pepper. mix together with a fork.
3. A little at a time, drop your beef in the flour and start browning on all sides in your skillet.
4. Add your browned beef into your saucepan and simmer until beef is tender. This could take about an hour. remove your beef and onion the best you can and set aside. (You will add this back in your pot after the noddles are finished cooking.)
5. add your can of consomme and the 6 cups water. let that simmer while you make your noodles.
6. In a medium mixing bowl add the 3 cups flour and your baking soda. Make a bowl in the middle and add your eggs. Mix up until sticky and place on a heavily floured surface.
7. roll in the flour
8. form a tube and roll as thin as you can. Make sure you have plenty flour on the counter!
9. Using a pizza cutter slice your noodle strips.
10. lift up the noodles gently and fold into the extra flour. If sticking to the counter use a spatula and rub lightly with flour on the top.
11. Get your broth to a rolling boil.
12. drop all your noodles (don't shake off the flour) into your broth and using a wooden spoon separate them if they stick together.
13. Your broth will want to over boil, you want that to happen but you also don't want it to spill over the pot. Lower your heat and let it thicken.
14. Place your beef and onions back in your bowl..Your done!
