Those tiny dollar bottles of wine are good to keep in the pantry for cooking purposes too.
Thats brilliant. I dont drink much wine, but I always end up buying a bottle to cook with and most of it gets wasted or I dont drink it all.

Just got my first crock pot as a wedding gift 2 months ago.
Looking forward to trying something like this...

I remember seeing a vid with a young Anthony Bourdain and he used a big ol' bottle of cheap arse red for his beef bourguignon demonstration. He went out of his way to scoff at the use of fine wine for cooking that particular dish. Obviously, you don't want to use Boone's Farm, but I'm easy when it comes to using cheaper wines in cooking. Sort of like when making a bloody mary. It doesn't matter if you use the best vodka.

How important is searing on such a long cook? Does the sear remain?

It's all about the taste.

I love mushrooms. Will be trying that next time.


me too

i went with chuck roast, onions, carrots, mushrooms, sweet potatoes, garlic (lots), red wine and stock, and right before serving i stirred in some steamed green beans and parsley, served over cooked barley. i'm a big fan of the barley in lieu of rice
