Pour your oil in a skillet on your stove and heat with medium heat
Add your cubed stew meat to the skillet and brown
Pour your steak, drippings from the skillet and all your other ingredients (except for the noodles) into your 6-quart slow cooker (I used Sir Hamilton, my Hamilton Beach Programmable Insulated Slow Cooker), using the water to reach the consistency you want
Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours
Serve over your prepared noodles (You can use narrow Amish Homemade Noodles like I did or your favorite egg noodle)
