Bring your crockpot/slow cooker recipes

I've made the following recipe many times. I don't flour and fry the meat first, but I do add the celery seed, pepper and salt into the pot itself. I serve it over noodles.


All Day Crockpot Delight II

2 1/2 to 3 pounds lean stew beef
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon seasoned pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 medium onions, quartered and sliced
1 cup beef broth
1 teaspoon honey
1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar (or white vinegar)
1/2 teaspoon Kitchen Bouquet or Gravy Master (browning sauce)

Dredge beef in flour mixed with celery seed, pepper, and salt. Place the onions in the crockpot. In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown the beef quickly in the olive oil; transfer to the crockpot. Add the garlic powder. Mix together the broth, honey, vinegar, and browning sauce; pour into the hot skillet and stir to get all browned bits. Pour mixture over the beef and onions. Cook on low for 7 to 9 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours. Delicious over noodles or rice. Serves 4 to 6.

I just put the cp on!

Today we have chicken and wild rice casserole

Layer in this order:
boneless skinless chicken thighs (fat removed)
cooked and chopped bacon (as much as you desire)
1 onion chopped
3 celery stalks chopped
2T worcestershire sauce
salt
pepper
dried sage
box of wild rice
about 3 cups of hot (temp, not spicy) broth - or however much you need to cover the chicken

Low for 3-4h, then let stand without cover for 15min before serving.



The recipe also calls for shrooms, but I hate them.

One whole onion, sliced into rings
One whole chicken, cut up
One to two bulbs garlic, separate cloves (you will have between 20-30 cloves)
Salt and pepper
Paprika
1 TB Olive oil

Layer onion on bottom of crock pot. Rub chicken pieces lightly with olive oil then sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika. Put cloves of garlic on top (leave some with their skins, some without).

Cook on low for 8+ hours or high 5-6. You will get fall off the bone chicken with a slight sweet taste from the roasted garlic. I serve this the first night with veggies or potatoes. Then take the leftover chicken, skin it and shred it. Now you have chicken for chicken salads, taco salads, enchiladas, tacos, soups, etc. And it's cheap!

You can do this without cutting the chicken as well. I stuff an onion and garlic in the body of the chicken, throw it in and go. Make sure the chicken is defrosted. It falls apart, tender & juicy and is awesome!

Crockpot Rotisserie Chicken
1 whole chicken
spray olive oil
Lawry's seasoned salt -no substitutes
Aluminum foil Red potatoes Carrots onions

Clean chicken inside and out. Spray with olive oil spray. Sprinkle with Lawry's. Spray inside of crock with Pam. Note: Do not put any water in the crock. Wrap potatoes in foil into 2”-3” balls and put them in the bottom of the crock. The chicken is going to sit on these. Place chicken breast side down in crock on top of aluminum balls. (The chicken breast sits on the aluminum balls, for the simple fact that the natural juices drain to the bottom of the pot, so with the breast on the bottom the juices stay in the breast instead of draining from the breast keeping the breast super moist!)

Cook on High (will not come out the same on low), 4-6 hours. (3lb. chicken took 4 hours)

I made something that's pretty good and healthy and easy, it's a white bean and chicken chili. I soaked the beans overnight first and then drained them and put all this in the crock:
1 whole Medium Onion, Diced
4 cloves Garlic, Minced
2 whole Cans Green Chilies, Chopped
1 pound Dried Great Northern Beans, Rinsed
8 cups Chicken Broth
1 whole Jalapeno, Sliced
1-1/2 Tablespoon Ground Cumin
1/2 teaspoon Paprika
1/2 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper

I cooked it on low for about 10 hours because that is how long I was away. But when I got back to it, I shredded a rotisserie chicken to add to the pot with
Salt To Taste
White Pepper, To Taste
1 cup Whole Milk
2 Tablespoons Masa (corn Flour) OR Cornmeal

And let that heat up and thicken for another 15 minutes.
At 6 servings (generous) it's about 344 cals when I entered it. I garnish it with plain greek yogurt and blue corn chips, you can add cheese, gaucamole, pico de gallo or whatever you like. I seeded the jalapeno for less heat.

and of course I find all these yummy recipies in the middle of an Australian summer ..... but will most definately be back here come our winter to try some out.... I have been using my crock pot for years (mum had one when we were growing up) but never really thought about how much more I could do with it ...... always used fresh or thawed meat (didn't even think about throwing a frozen chicken breast or diced meat in).

Thanks all and enjoy

Actually summer is my favorite time to use a crockpot! Saves heating the kitchen up. Unless you eat totally cold food ALL summer long, why not cut the heat in the kitchen and use your crockpot. I save stove and oven recipes for winter and crockpot or grill during the summer months.

Bumping for reference. A lot of these recipes sound good and I would like to try them out.
