Does anybody have any good crock pot recipes they'd like to share with me? I've been experimenting.

[RedThread]

I've been mostly sticking to chili and this parsley chicken type thing. I would like to be enlightened.

I have made this before, and it's excellent. It's so convenient to let it cook all day while you go about your business as well. The recipe says to stir it once but I've never done that until the end when I'm ready to serve it (I guess because the potatoes and beans settle. It's not a big deal).

I like to use a blade roast (beef chuck) for this one, and 2 lbs is a lot. You can get the butcher to cut you 2 lbs, or you can just do it yourself if you have a food scale. Blade roast is super cheap as well.

[RedThread]

I don't have a scale so I will probably just have someone else cut it for me haha.

Looks very tasty though and I enjoy all the ingredients. I'll definitely try this out.

[musicbrain5]

Yeah if your supermarket has a butcher you can just ask them to cut it if you can't find the right size on the meat shelf. It's pretty easy to make in the morning, so you can make it quickly, turn it on and then dinner will be ready when you get home.

All Recipes has a whole category of slow cooker recipes, so you can browse through their site as well. They allow you to change serving sizes as well, which adjusts the recipe accordingly.

[RedThread]

Ahh that sounds super convenient. Thanks again.

[musicbrain5]

You're welcome, enjoy!

There as so many crockpot recipes on Pinterest that I got full just by looking at them https://www.pinterest.com/search/pins/?q=crockpot

[RedThread]

Yeah I know I could always search them on my own but I would also like to hear what people like on GaG :)

[Daph81]

I see =) I have never cooked using crockpot, so I wouldn't know. But all those pinterest pictures look damn yummy!

[RedThread]

Indeed they do.

I tried this and it was awesome! It's also good to put in the fridge and eat for a day or two. Of course I'd recommend chicken n dumplings ;)

This also looks great!

[RedThread]

I'll be checking this out because I <3 dumplings. Thanks.

[palek]

I used to make beef stew in one a lot. Probably brisket with potatoes, turnips and squash would be good.

[RedThread]

Thank you. I'll do some research on all of that.

[palek]

When I was single I used a barbeque grill, George Foreman grill and a crock pot almost excusively (too lazy to clean up)

[RedThread]

Yes that's the bonus of it. Easier to make and easier to clean up. You can just set it and forget it as all the infomercials would say haha

[doctorwhofan23]

Stew is always good in a crock pot.

[hswhis]

Pinterest has plenty of recipes. You can also go to the Williams-Sonoma recipe website where they have plenty of stews and soups which you can make in a crockpot.

Any cooking website, the food network, chefs.com., etc. has plenty of crockpot recipes.

Crockpots are pretty in vogue now since you can make a lot of different recipes using inexpensive meat cuts and veggies really cheap.

All I can say is, nothing explosive in those crock pots since the 1 year anniversary is fast approaching. #Bostonstrong.

[RedThread]

Aren't you thinking about pressure cookers? lol

[Opinion Owner]

Same thing. I smoke a lot of pot.

[RedThread]

LMAO this is already awesome.

[Opinion Owner]

Doritos or Cheetos? I am hungry.

[RedThread]

I'd go with Doritos. Cheetos can be too messy to me.

[Opinion Owner]

I'm going into a snack coma

[RedThread]

I believe they call that the munchies. Better score something quickly bro.

[Opinion Owner]

Munchies! That's it!

[sweatgirl]

no, but I am sure if you google crock pot recipes you can find them online.

[RedThread]

Yeah I know but I was just wondering what people on here enjoyed.

[sweatgirl]

I make a bad ass vegaterian chillie

[RedThread]

Ah I've made that before but not in a crock pot. Good stuff.

[NoMoreDreams]

You should try beef stroganoff, its really good and filling.

[RedThread]

Yummy thanks for the suggestion.

[NoMoreDreams]

You're welcome ^^

[knotme]

Do you eat any type of game meat ( bison, deer, rabbit)?

[RedThread]

Yikes I've tried rabbit but I wasn't a fan. I don't know about the other ones haha

[knotme]

maybe you can try jambalaya

[RedThread]

I'm not a shrimp fan.. I should have listed all the things I'm not really into in the description hahaha

[knotme]

You don't have to use shrimp

[RedThread]

Oh okay that sounds good then.

[knotme]

How much work are you trying to do?

[RedThread]

Hmm I don't want the recipe to be too complicated but I'm willing to try new things.

[knotme]

How about barbeque pork tenderloin

[RedThread]

Yum that sounds really good. I'll research some recipes of that.

[musicbrain5]

Pork tenderloin is excellent in the crock pot.

[COCOCHANEL]
