ok got brisket cooking on top of onion with pint of stock and white wine, dont fancy carrots liquidised in stock, can i put whole baby carrots in, say half way thro cooking, so they cook but stay whole. First time using it, hope it turns out ok.:)

lor what I do is remove the carrots or other veggies I don't want to liquidise before putting the remainder in the liquidiser, then replace them or not as desired. I used to work for a company who made commercial canned soups and that is what they do, it's called 'garnish'.

Today I'm attempting a steamed bacon and onion pudding.....

A couple of days ago I did Rabbit in mine. (cost nothing as my foster dog got hold of one of my pets:( but I made sure it didn't go to waste;))
Due to the rabbit being a 'domestic' rabbit rather than a wild one there was loads of meat. After cooking it in the slow cooker for several hours and picking the bones out, (slow cookers are a god send for there abillity to cook things so they fall to bits, which is a good thing.) I did a stir fry, then later had a sandwich, then sat picking & nibbling on bits, then ended up giving the rest to my dog (not the bunny killing foster dog) Because it was a domestic rabbit it wasn't gamey, tasted like chicken.
I wouldn't have risked cooking it (or any meat) in a conventional oven 'cos I'm frightend of giving myself food poisoning.:eek:

i think i feel sick
