  • I made oxtail ragout for the first time in mine today. It just tasted like a faffy oxtail stew TBH. So next time I shall save my time and effort and wine and just make the stew as normal!

    I keep seeing these ziplock bag freezer-to-slow-cooker recipes on Pinterest and I would like to try some. Can anyone recommend any recipes please?

    I've just started using my slow cooker after getting inspiration on this thread (it's been in the cupboard for years).

    I did chicken casserole yesterday for the freezer and I've just put it on for beef casserole for today.

    I think I'm addicted and I can't believe I've let it sit in the cupboard this long.
  • Sausage casserole :) will add dumplings toward the end of cooking

  • Hello all!

    I did a pork shoulder with apples and apple juice today, it was delicious!!!

    Question-can I use the leftover stock for soup as it is mainly apple juice so not sure if it will work??

    Thanks

    I use mine more than any other kitchen gadget. I am so sorry that I did not have one until perhaps a year ago missing decades of using one(all those years lost)and that Mum never had any of the meals I could've served for both of us...you can do so much and save on the cost of energy.

    You can have a lovely meal when you return after being out...cook at anytime or set it up even using a timer...and use cheaper but equally tasty cuts of meat too.

    I was going to link to a recipe but there are so many...use a search engine and type in pae and ham soup in a slow cooker and see what comes back:)

    Good Luck!

    This a great site with many ideas for mainly inexpensive meals but ease of cooking and many can be adapted to being prepared in a slow cooker. Loads of ideas in the recipe index...
