Answer 3

Personally, I am a vegetarian so I can't say I've tasted this before but my sister LOVES her crock pot and this is her all time favorite recipe for chili...everyone always loves it, don't be thrown off by the somewhat unusual ingredient list!


1 lb lean ground beef, browned and drained
1 package dry onion soup mix
2 teaspoons cocoa powder
2-3 tablespoons chili powder
1 can tomato paste
1 can Diet Coke

Mix all ingredients in crock pot and cook on low for 6 hours.

And just an added thing-if you are interested, she always makes this chocolate mud cake in her crock pot and it is AMAZING!!!! here is the recipe-
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
6 tablespoons butter
2 ounces semisweet chocolate or chocolate chips
1 cup sugar, divided
3 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder, plus
1/3 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup milk
1 egg yolk
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups hot water
whipped cream or ice cream

Coat the inside of a 2 ½ quart to 5 quart slow cooker or crock pot with cooking spray.
(Note: the cake’s cooking time and final appearance will vary depending on your crock’s size.) Whisk together the flour and baking powder in a medium bowl and set aside.
In a large bowl, melt the butter and chocolate in the microwave or over a pan of simmering water and mix well.
Whisk in the 2/3 cup of sugar, 3 T.
of cocoa, vanilla, salt, milk, and egg yolk.
Add the flour mixture and stir until thoroughly mixed.
Pour the batter into the slow cooker and spread it evenly.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining sugar, cocoa and hot water until the sugar is dissolved.
Pour the mixture over the batter in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on high for 1 ¼ to 2 ¼ hours, depending on size of the crock pot.
Even when done, the cake will be very moist and floating on a layer of molten chocolate, but you will know it is ready when nearly all of the cake is set and the edges begin to pull away from the sides of the pot.
(As you check, try not to let the condensed steam from the lid, drip on the cake.) When it is done, turn off the power and remove the lid.
Let it cool for 25 minutes, then serve it in bowls topped with whipped cream or ice cream.

Answer 6

My Best Friend's Pot Roast

Put enough red potatoes in the bottom of the crock pot to cover it.
Place small bag of baby carrots and a sliced yellow onion on top of the potatoes. Pour in about 1/2 - 3/4 cup of white wine for moisture and flavor. Lay the roast on top of the carrots and onions. Top the roast with a can of cream of mushroom soup, sprinkled with a packet of dry onion soup mix. Then generously "squiggle" on some yellow mustard and some thai chili sauce (which we call rooster sauce cuz there's a rooster on the bottle). Put on the lid and cook on low for 8-10 hours. Yummy in your tummy, I promise....enjoy!

Answer 7

Mine would have to be chicken 'N' Dumplings. YUM! really easy recipe too... The best part is that after you include all the ingredients for the base, all the dumplings are the easiest part! Just cut up those biscuits, the kind you can store in the fridge, into Little quarters, and turn the crock pot on high. for 45 minutes, and it's AMAZING!

Answer 9

Beef Sandwiches! Take a round roast or sirloin roast and cut it into large chunks. Add a package of Au Jus seasoning mix and about half of a jar of pepperochini peppers-- break them up and take out the seeds and the stems. Then add about half a jar of the pepper juice and enough water to cover the beef. Add about 2 teaspoons of dried fennel seeds. Cook for about 4 hours or until you can shred the beef easily with a fork. Serve on kaiser or Italian rolls.
