    I use my slow cooker for almost everything I can. I love pork chops and apples in the slow cookers, just some cinnamon and a little brother and you are good to go also I add squash to it at times.

    This seriously made me giggle. I couldn't help but picture someone tossing their little brother in the Crock-Pot in a complete witch-of-Hansel-and-Gretel way while cackling.

    I'm thinking you meant broth, but it made for a good laugh.

    Buy a cross-rib roast (or two).
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
    Place in a large casserole dish.
    Sprinkle liberally with salt (I prefer unrefined!!), pepper, and garlic powder.
    Cover with foil and place in oven. Lower oven temperature gauge to 325, and let roast for about 3 hours, or until the meat is totally tender.
    The fat melts off the roast, so you can skim it off the cooled broth.
    Break it up with a fork or slice it.
    Now you have tender seasoned beef to freeze in ziplocs.
    Use it in any way you wish! Sandwiches, casseroles, or simply heat and serve with steamed veggies and bread. MMMMmmmmm! Winner!

    Thank you guys, you are Awesome!

    I'm from a country with no tradition of pot roasts, But the Granny recipe sounds like I will submerge the meat in wine and water? DidI get it right?

    II'm getting hungry just reading these!

    Get a flank or hangar steak, marinate in your fav mexican spices w/some lime juice and little olive oil - marinate for 30 minutes or overnight. Grill to your doneness, slice across the grain for killer fajitas. Use the same pan to quick sear your veg, I use onions, garlic, sweet and hot peppers and serve with sour cream, cheese and guacamole.

    Tamale pie ground beef cooked w/onions, garlic, tomatoes, & mexican spices. Make your fav cornbread recipe and spred on top. bake till cornbread crust is browned.

    or Shepherd's, ground beef cooked w/onions, garlic, carrots and potatoes, top with mashed potatoes and bake until top is golden and crispy.

    Sauerbraten is a good way to use a tough chuck roast. You'll have to plan though as it needs to marinade for at least 3 days. Lots of recipes on-line.

    LOVE cooking down a pork butt (aka pork shoulder and Boston butt) in crock pot, shred add BBQ sauce for pulled pork sandwiches or add taco seasoning for killer tacos or burritos.

    My go-to trick with my crock pot is to let if simmer overnight, transfer the contents to a cool pot, store in frig for the day, then skim all that congealed fat before you re-heat when you get home. I get a substantial amount of fat off that way.
