need special dinner recipe

Anonymous wrote:Poster of slower cooker recipe here. I do meal planning so I always use whatever is on special. So any type of beef you try will work bc you are cooking it for such a longer time that it gets tender. The pork as well any cut will do, just be aware that sometimes the pork has a lot of fat on the bottom that you can't see so ask your butcher for a good cut. Although both beef and pork work well, pork comes out more juicy and tender. I like to cut the pork in chuncks the last couple minutes ( its so soft it breaks apart) and I slice the beef and sometimes I add gravy to it on the plate. I also add carrots, potatoes and celery if I have it.

19:01 here. Thanks so much for the info. I'm going to replace my old Rival crockpot with a new one and try your suggestions for sure! I've never tried 2 soup packets before, but I guess that gives added flavor!

OP here: Okay, thanks for the suggestions! I am going to do a flank steak grilled with a mushroom wine reduction (kids can eat nuggets) and an applesauce kugel (noodle dish) that should appeal to all. I will also do grilled asparagus. It is supposed to be beautiful on Thursday which tipped me over to grilling!
