what a crock!?

Question

Anyone got any recipes for crock pot cooking? Just bought one and need some inspiration.

Answer 1

try: www.allrecipies.com
or cooks.com

there are recipe books published just for crock pots, you could get one of those

some suggestions tho...you can do spaghetti, ribs, stew, amost anything in a crock pot

Answer 2

I use my crock pot at least three times a week. I cook things in it that I would normally cook, even chops and ribs. I just season the same way I would have if I wasn't using the crock pot and put everything in at the same time. If I knew what kind of food you liked I'd put some recipes on here. I will put a great crock pot website though! One thing I really like to do is put boneless pork in, onion, garlic, carrots, potato's and quartered cored apples. For liquid I use apple juice. Then at the end of cooking take out all the veges and the pork should just fall apart. Now you can do a couple of different things. I usually eat it like that the first night and the second night make BBQ pork sandwiches with it. It's really good when you put the apples and onions on the sandwich.

Answer 3

EASY SOUP
The crock pot is great for soups on a cold day. In the morning, add meat bones like beef bones, chicken pieces (or both!), veggies like carrots, celery, potatoes, and even a scoop of long grain rice, and some spices like dried oregano, basil, dill, some garlic.... Turn on the crock pot at 8 am, when you get home from work at 5:30, its ready.


Or for easy pot roast, here's my favorite, and there's no leftovers!

Answer 5

Buy this one: Fix-It and Forget It...it is really good. The important thing with crock cooking is to make sure you do EXACTLY what they say. Also, make sure your crock is up to date and heating properly. You also want to make sure your lid is secure, not leaking. If it is, add foil under it. Alot of people said go to AllRecipes, it is a GREAT website and they were nice to tell you that. Don't give up, it takes practice, just like everything else!!!
