Crock pot cooking – what's your favorite meal?

[Old BuckParticipant 3596]

Winter is around the corner and I washed the dust off my crock pot.

I have been using turmeric in more recipes lately. It is the base spice in curry.

I made curry pork and potatoes, not following any recipe, just trying something new.

I used boneless country style pork ribs, browned in a skillet, added enough water to cover the meat, then my spices.

Turmeric, ginger powder, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and Italian herbs.

I cooked on high for about 4 hours, meat not quite falling apart. I then added the potatoes and let it continue for 2 more hours on low until the potatoes were soft.

I had to use a large spoon to remove the pork!

It wasn’t spicy (my diet requires it) and the juice made an awesome gravy. Two tablespoons of butter melted in the pan I used to brown the meat, then added two tablespoons flour. When flour bubbles slowly add the juice from the crock pot until the gravy is as thick (or thin) as you like.

Turned out great and I will make it again.

What is your favorite crock pot meal?

Approx. 2 lb boneless pork roast + chopped up peeled potatoes, chopped celery, chopped carrots, sliced onions (just a few slices so it doesn’t get overly spiced) + part of a small roast type seasoning slow cooker packet from grocery store sprinkled on top + 1/2 cup water thrown in for 7-8 hours on ‘low’ setting. I add a good dab of butter to melt on top when served. I usually add some jello or sliced peach or pear or some fruit like sliced apple as side dish and a roll or french bread. It seems to work every time with good results and couldn’t possibly be easier home cooked tasting meal. I also use disposable crock-pot liners now .. makes total clean up just a couple of minutes.

1/2 lb of weed and four sticks of butter and a little water. Melt butter first, then add water and weed, slow cook for an afternoon in the Crock Pot stirring occasionally. Separate weed from water/butter with mesh strainer, then make brownies with the magic butter after separated from the water by leaving it in the fridge for awhile. Serve warm with a tall glass of ice cold Milk.

This meal goes great with SpongeBob cartoons, any comedy movie, video games, a walk through the woods, and any other food you care to eat for the rest of the day, as it just won’t seem to matter at some point. The pairings are virtually limitless.

Venison roast seared with honey or brown sugar coating. After it is blackened in cast iron frying pan on all sides it goes in the slow cooker with beef broth and brown rice and various veggies. After a few hours I slice it as thin as I can and put it back in the slow cooker. I like to add some butter or cream to give it some fat content. I’ve been experimenting with venison and peanut butter and that is really good too.

Back off Barbie!

I saw on the Food Network a guy cooked a Thanksgiving Ham basted with Dr. Pepper. Seems like something to try.

I like ham slices with sprite (or 7-up) and pineapple.

as for the weed butter, use cheese cloth. Works like a tea bag, no straining.

Use slow cooker a lot in the winter. Mayocoba beans, ground beef, tomato paste, onion and my mix of spices. Makes a nice chili on a cold day.

I know there are tons of recipes for crock pots, but I’ve only ever used mine for pot roast. Most of the time it just sits in the cabinet. Oh, I did bring it to work one time with some chili in it for a pot luck.

That’s the fun part, it all can start out like a pot roast, but change the meat, veggies, or spices and you get a completely different meal.

Like white chicken chili.

3 or 4 cans of white beans: northern, baby butter, garbanzo, etc.
Diced green chilis, jalapenos, etc.
Chopped sweet onion
Garlic
Grilled chicken
Chicken stock (or bouillon, I use low sodium Orrington Farms)
Spices: chili powder, cumin, cayenne, garlic powder, seasoned salt

Going to start up mine in the morning. Split pea soup will be my first cook of the winter season. Have some black forest ham I am going to dice up. I like it a little spicy so going to use some Tony Chachere’s season salt.

That sounds so good. I am going to make that tomorrow, too. I haven’t had split pea soup in a year!
