Crock pot

Please tell me w t f I can make in this. I used it once, and want to take advantage more. What do you use it for in real life?

Re: Crock pot

One girl once said that she made chicken catchatorie with it. (I know I didn't spell that right). You can also use most meats.

I am sure if you googled crockpot recipes, you will fine an abundance of goodies!

The only thing that comes to mind for me is pot roast lol

Re: Crock pot

I have made beef stew, pot roast, stuffed peppers and sauce in it so far. The sauce was the only one I wouldnt really recommend. It burned a little.

Re: Crock pot

Yeah like I want to know real things that you girls have tried and if they worked. Internet recipes are sometimes questionable.

Re: Crock pot

i make pot roast in ours all the time and it's one of our fav meals! and super easy! let me know if you want to know how to do it!

Re: Crock pot

Hm we don't eat beef or pork. I guess I should have specified that

Re: Crock pot

amazing chili- brown the meat with onion, add seasonings, beans, 1 can tomato sauce (small ones) and a large can of diced tomatoes- 8-10 hours is best

pot roast- buy a roast, rub onion soup mix on it, pour a can of diet coke on it, add veggies and cook 8-10 hours is best

drunken chicken- take chicken parts, pour about 1/2 a bottle white wine over it, add a little dijon mustard (I usually add 1/4 cup) and cook for 4-6 hours

i also make meatballs in it, and use it for parties to keep the food warm. I have a bunch of recipe- i'll put them together tonight and post them here tomorrow

Re: Crock pot

Ugh I have not One but TWO and I put ZERO on my registry bc I had never even heard of a crockpot until I got it as a gift.
Please keep the suggestions coming so I can try to use at least one of them.

Re: Crock pot

this was SO delish! it sounds like it would be creamy, but the liquid actually turns into a thick brown gravy.. i made it with mashed potatos on the side. dh was in love. it came out so tender that when i went to take it out of the c/p it completely fell apart

1. Place the onion, chili beans, black beans, corn, tomato sauce, beer, and diced tomatoes in a slow cooker. Add taco seasoning, and stir to blend. Lay chicken breasts on top of the mixture, pressing down slightly until just covered by the other ingredients. Set slow cooker for low heat, cover, and cook for 5 hours.
2. Remove chicken breasts from the soup, and allow to cool long enough to be handled. Stir the shredded chicken back into the soup, and continue cooking for 2 hours. Serve topped with shredded Cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and crushed tortilla chips, if desired.
