[quote=Anonymous]I'll cop to being a food snob, and I use my slow cooker all the time. I don't use recipes so much as I use a general formula: meat + veg + (thickener) + liquid. I brown the meat and saute the veggies in advance and it takes 20 mins tops. If your slow cooker is slow to warm up, do this step on the stovetop--just remember to dump the liquid in the pan you cooked the stuff in to get all the goodness out. Some tips: I use cheap tough cuts of meat and cook AT LEAST 12 hours, sometimes up to 16. You know it's done when you can break it with a fork. Not all veggies stand up well to slow cooking. High mush factor: broccoli, green beans. Leafy greens, carrots, celery, onions, potatoes--these work better.[/quote]
