Opaquebond- I thought it was "set it and forget it"

it's hot in here...time to do a little CROTCH POT cookin'!

I have that cookbook, mom's speghetti and meatballs on page 162 kicks ass! I made it for a dinner party once and it was well received.

my own recipe: hot roast beef sandwiches au jus
put beef roast in pot (i think I use rump roast)
sprinkle a packet of french onion soup over top
pour about 1 cup of water over top. put lid on.
crock it on high for first hour, then 6-8 hours on low.
thin slice roast and pile on kasier buns, use sauce for dipping, au jus style

huhmm.. i bet a crock pot could be used in studio. just throw together some meat and veggies. fire up the rice cooker, and by the time you've used up 10 blades cutting foam core you have a meal.

i thought this was a crack pot discussion room.
oops

anybody have a good resource for vegetarian crockpot recipes?

i made seitan a couple of days ago, and was thinking i probably could have done it in the CP, if only it were large enough....

mjh00c, I did that very recipe many many times a few years back. My roommate and I would set it on low, go to school, and return to a tasty dinner. One evening we came home to no inviting smells. No smells at all. We never turned it one. We had dinner at 11:00 PM that night.

I am with stephanie these days. What veg recipes are out there? My old vegan roommate (different fellow) made some kind of curry in the Crock Pot. Tasty, and spicy. I'll ask him for ideas.

"turned it on"

i can send you my "three ungulate" crock pot recipe. its quite tasty

i am not a crockpot fan at all! maybe as a side dish.. but never as a meal.. it is just strage for me to experience anything on my pallet that tastes like everything.. FOR THE WHOLE MEAL.. it bores me.

jonathan harper, have you ever had moussaka?

mufassah.....

hey myriam,

i sure have and it is wonderful. I stand corrected. I am a huge fan of mediterranean food so you caught me.

have a great day!

Oddly enough last weekend I used the crockpot to make sunday dinner - for one :(

Turkey Chilli

half onion
3 cloves of garlic
2 tblsp Worchester sauce
1/2 tspn black pepper
1 lb Turkey mince
1 can red beans
1 can tomatoes (diced)
Chilli powder

2 hours of just the mince, onion, garlic in the pot
add powder - leave for another 30 mins
add remaining ingredients let cook for another 1:30hrs

eat!!

A lot like my Dad's turkey chili (no red meat in my house growing up).

He added green peppers. Never tried Worchester.

I dunno jury is still out on the green peppers

i think i like them raw...pains my heart to put them in chili

i must buy a crock pot for the autumn and winter monthes to come. i wonder if dwell magazine has a crockpot story rating them.

These days green peppers in any form pain my heart. I love them but ouch.

in my cracked up-ness brought upon by endless chipboard cutting, i thought of steve irwin when i read the topic of this thread.

now im back to cutting chipboard.

-take 6- 1" cut pork chops and make a pocket slit in each of them (or better yet have your butcher do it)
-stuff each with 1/4 - 1/2 cup of your favorite stuffing
-brown each in a skillet
-place in crock pot cover with 1 can cream of celery and 1 cup of water
-cook on low for 5-6 hours
enjoy the tasty goodness
