    I did not read all yet so I'm sorry if it's already been said, but I have two extremely easy recipes:

    Pulled pork:

    One pork shoulder (or any other big pork piece, usually not expensive)
    1/4 cup of BBQ sauce (I used Bull's eyes original)
    1 onion cut in big chunks.

    Put the pork in the crockpot, cover with sauce and the chunks of onions. Put it on low for 6h. You can pull it to tiny bits with a fork and eat it in a sandwich with a little more sauce to taste.

    Beef or Pork "roast"

    One pork "roast" (sorry I'm not sure of the name of the cut in english, but it's the same you would use in a roast) OR one beef "roast". You can cook both at a time.
    I enveloppe of powder onion soup

    You put the "roast" in the crockpot, you cover it with the powdered soup and you fill about half of your enveloppe with water and pour it on. 6h on low.
