I started using a slow cooker crockpot. How do I flavor beef/chicken without a lot of ingredients?

Answer 1

Boullion is good, but if you want another idea, try condensed soup (Campbells), like the pepperjack cheese with your chicken, or cream or mushroom or celery with your beef. The condensed tomato soups are great with pork.You don't even need to add water. The juices from the meat will make a nice sauce when they combine with the soup.

Answer 2

All you need to do is to choup some onions use minced garlic and throw it in there with the meat. Also make sure you season the meat real good before you start to cook it and if you use a little stock it gives it moisture and added flavor. You know chicken stock for chicken and beef stock for beef

Answer 3

Lipton makes really good flavor packets. You drop in the meat, add the packet and instead of water use beef or chicken broth. Delicious!

Answer 4

Sprinkle with half a package of taco seasoning before cooking.

Or pour 1/2 cup of italian salad dressing over the meat.

Answer 5

Try beef or chicken boullion cubes..disolve them with hot water and they give off a lot of flavor.

Answer 6

Season the meat and let it marinade overnight before putting it in the crockpot. Add carrots, onions, celery, bellpepper, and garlic. Cover with water..

Answer 7

There are these little cubes you can purchase that really perk up the taste of chicken or beef they are called bullion cubes. Get them in the spice section..
