corned beef: put beef in crock, sprinkle with seasoning, dump in carrots and potatoes, pour in a beer, cook on low for 6-8 hours.
split pea soup: 1 lbs split peas, frozen diced onions, baby carrots, chopped celery, seasoning, 6 c broth (I use chicken broth, but you could use veggie), optional ham hock. Cook on low 6-8 hours. Remove the ham hock. Puree with stick blender. Pull meat off the ham hock, chop and put back in the soup. If you don't eat pork, try some turkey or beef sausages. Or skip the meat altogether.
pot roast: in a large piece of foil wrap beef chuck roast, potatoes and carrots, sprinkled with one packet of onion soup mix and ~ 1/4 red wine. Cook on low ~ 8 hours.
Thanks for these. For the pot roast, you put the wrapped up ingredients into a dry crock pot?
