    I have a beef stew in mine right now - my first attempt with the slow cooker! Just got home and it smells AMAZING, but I need to wait until my [strike]test subjects[/strike] guests arrive till I can taste it!

    Can't wait... drool...

    What a surprise, there's beef stew in mine as well!

    Husband has just phoned to say he's about to come home, so it'll only be in there about another 15 minutes.

    Duck carcass and giblets to make a good stock for a chinese soup for dinner this evening - looking forward to trying it for the first time
    It's nice to be nutty but's more important to be nice

    Beef in mine too lol. Put potatoes, sweetcorn, carrots and red pepper with it. I also added a beef casserole herb packet (I'm going to add my own herbs etc soon - just don't want my first attempts to be complete disasters). Some of the pots were a bit hard, so had a look on the net and learned about layering veg. Also learned to 'NOT REMOVE THE LID!'

    Later on in the week I'll be having Somerset Sausage casserole and Moroccan lamb, using those packets again.... tut tut.
    There's a storm coming, Mr Johnson. You and your friends better batten down the hatches, because when it hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us.

    Got myself a pound of diced venison from the local farm shop (it was reduced, and I couldn't resist). Anyone have any recommendations on what to do with it ??

    The beef stew-y type creation has now been turned into tea (served with rice), 4 pasties for work and a kind of cottage pie ready to be portioned up to go in the freezer.

    Replacing it is sausages and onions ready for sausage bake which I'll put on in the morning.
