Hi everyone,
I've gone for beef brisket, half a can of guinness, 2 onions, 2 carrots, dried oregano, some beef stock and some garlic and pepper.
Looking forward to it. Not used my slow cooker for a while.

done a beef joint that was too big for the slow cooker, so cut the ends off, the beef was really soft and just crumbled when i cut it last night!
sealed the ends in small cubes yesterday and now it is in the slow cooker, getting it ready for my 2 veg and meat pie ala baker bros, having it with mash, baby spinach and green beans.Lose 28lb 3/28lb

I've got 2 rolled flank steaks with mushrooms and some ale. We will have this with mini roasties and brocolli today, then I may turn the leftovers into a pie if I feel so inclined!0

In my slow cooker today....was a complete disaster.
The kitchen is rather cold at the moment (not surprisingly as it's 2 degrees outside) and yesterday I decided 'ooooooo, beef stew, yummy!' But due to the coldness of the kitchen it didn't cook in time for dinner.
So I decided to let it continue cooking and switch it off before I went to bed. Now here's the problem. I forgot to switch it off. The nice, lovely snuggly warmth of bed was too much of a draw last night.
At 6 o'clock this morning, I went downstairs and was greeting by this smell. Oh dear. The beef stew had cooked itself dry.
Blast!
