i never buy ribs (the kids wouldn't eat them) i really fancy some now tho, i might get some on fri now

today i have a pork shoulder joint in mine (was huge when i bought it so cut it in 3 and it's still huge) topped with honey salt and pepper which will make some yummy gravy

Having bought the bargainous argos slowcooker jobby yesterday, much smaller than the huge one we have, I plonked in some leek and potato soup to start us off.

Does anyone know when you use tinned kidney bins in a slow cooker, if your meant to drain them, or add the whole tin with the liquid stuff as well?
I've only really made stew in my slow cooker and I'm confused! I thought I'd try making a chilli today, opened the kidney bins and now I'm stuck!

I always drain and rinse tinned beans. Some have salt/sugar added, I'd rather get rid of it! Also sometimes it's really gucky at the bottom of the tin.

I've got chunky pork chilli in mine, with the 1/2 price pork L!dl had at the weekend:)

I have a joint of pork defrosting for tomorrow. We had bbq pork mince earlier in the week which was yummy, does anyone have a different recipe? I always thought you had to cook joints in liquid in a slow cooker? I have so much to learn :rotfl:

I did chicken in a balti sauce, lovely to have tea on the table in 20 mins after making some rice to go with it.

Tomorrow I think we're having spag bol.
