IM gonna hafta start doing a lil cookin,Im thinkin a couple crock pots would be just the thing,with the right recipes,preferably beef,or venison maybe put em on low at bedtime and have my lunch ready to go bout noon time ?
Or put em on early in the morning at coffee and have supper.............good luck
 
Irish stew.
Beef cut up into bites of any kind, carrots,potatos,cabbage,tomatos.peppers,zuccini. throw them in the pot with some water or tomato juice.... And if you want take some refridgerator boughten biscuits and put over the top and bakein the oven till done..
 
About the only thing I use mine for, is doing roasts. Just make sure they're pretty well thawed out in the morning, and put them in with a little water or else they get too dry, and set it on low. If it's not too big, it should be done by noonish.............the thing is, the longer you let meat cook on low, the more tender it gets...........:nod:

Good luck and have fun cookin! :D
 
Cook the pot roast as above so its at the fall apart stage. In the meantime zip up a sauce of soya sauce, sugar, ginger, and sesame oil .( teryaki style)
Take the beef out of the crock pot and shred with two forks. Put back in crock pot and stir with the sauce.

Next grill a few Kaiser type rolls and slice some pineapple rings and chop lots of green onions.

Build a sandwich with a hot bun piled with shredded beef, a slice of pineapple and handful of chopped green onions.

Use this recipe when you get tire of "stew" dishes.

1 part pintoes 2 parts water, little salt, lotta garlic, half an onion, a couple jalapinoes.



other crock pot

4# cubed pork, seared if you want, not if you don't want. If you don't mind sorting after its cooked, don't even cube it or debone it. The fat will cook off and you can later scoop it off the top. Just enough water to cover it enough to cook. A little salt a lotta garlic an onion cut in quarters, and half dozen jalapinoes - more if its not for kids. Do all this before you go to bed and let it cook. In the morning add tomato juice or tomatoe sauce if there's not much room left, and let cook til noon on low. (Ya don't want to scald the tomatos)


Brown1 cup plain white rice until nicely browned in a little oil. When browned, add some minced onions and 1 cup hot water and 1 cup tomato juice and some puree chopped jalapinoes. let simmer til done.

Pork/rice/beans for a week.
 
1/2 head of cabbage chop it vey itty bitty
bunch of carrots (to taste not everyone likes carrots..)
2 huge onions chop itty
1/2 thingy of celery
4 or 5 green peppers
1 large can diced or stewed tomatoes
1 package of lipton soup mix
2 cans of chicken broth or use oxo cubes whichever you prefer.
salt and pepper to taste.

you wanted everything chopped very fine so that it cooks faster and then you can hide things like onions and peppers from your children :)

if the chicken broth doesnt cover everything ad water until it is covers.

now you can brown whatever type of meat you want first and ad that but I prefer to have it as a veg stew.
 
Just be carefull cookin beans in a crock pot. I did that once. and won't ever try it again. Most crock pots aren't that big on the inside, and them beans swell up after they get goin. I thought I was gonna be sooooo smart and have them beans cooked when I got home from work. Put them in there covered them with water and turned it on low, with the lid on. I came home from work at 5 pm to find, bean juice allllllll overrrrrr my kitchen cabinet. All behind the canisters, and numerous other things on my cabinet. Was a huge mess. That was early in Mr Lilly's and my marriage. Needless to say, the crock pot was put away for years and years before I was tempted to use it again.

Now...I do stews, roasts, swiss steak, salisbury steak, mexican casserole.....all kinda things in mine. Anything that ;you can cook in a pot on the stove top or bake in the oven, that takes all day to cook will work in the crock pot. Long as it has anuff water in it to last all day.
 
At least your beans weren't burnt, Jersey Lilly. Now there is a mess to clean up. I remember coming home from school one day and the bean pot was thrown out in the snow and all the windows were open in the house. It was winter time. My mom really burnt the beans. They exploded and were even on the ceiling. Took forever to get rid of the smell.
 
Thanks everyone for the recipes,I had got me a crock pot at the store,wanted two but they only had the one,they ordered me another one,but anyway I have one of yall's recipe in the pot and it sure smells good,plan on trying all the recipe's as I am copying em to a document and storing them..............good luck
PS did a lil taste test too.......not all bad :wink:
 
LOL we were invited over to a friends house for a grilled steak dinner, tater salad, etc. When we got there the lady of the house had run to the store and left the man in charge. She'd left eggs on the stove to boil. We were outside on the patio, he'd said he still had the potato salad to put together, but was waitin on the eggs to get done. I guess time flys when your havin fun, cuz when we went in.......I learned somethin I didnt know.
If eggs boil dry, they explode.......n I mean EXPLODE!!!! not some lil pop........there was boiled egg all over the place...up under the vent hood. all over the stove top, cabinets....out in the floor...thank goodness the eggs were not still runny, wasn't a bad thing to clean up, but I'd just never dreamed eggs would do that.

Which recipe you cookin Haymaker?
