Your best simple slow cooker recipes?

I love crock pot chili. I use different recipes each time because I just google it when I want to make it, but it always turns out great.

I prefer black beans over kidney beans though.

Thanks, that's the type of thing I'm looking for.

I could probably do without the cheese but it's a good start

Do you like Brunswick Stew? If so I'll give you a good recipe when I get home and can look it up. It makes a TON but it's one of those that keeps getting better and better each night. Lemme know if that's the sort of recipe you're looking for and I'll post.

•1 boneless beef chuck roast, about 3 to 4 pounds
•2 teaspoons Hungarian paprika
•Salt and pepper
•2 tablespoons olive oil
•1/2 cup beef broth
•1/2 cup red wine, such as cabernet or pinot noir, or more beef broth
•3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
•1 tablespoon honey or brown sugar
•1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
•1 large onion, quartered, sliced
•1 large carrot, cut in 1/2-inch slices
•3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Preparation:
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Generously sprinkle the roast all over with salt and pepper, then rub the paprika into all sides. Cook the roast for about 5 minutes on each side to brown.

Meanwhile, combine the broth, wine, tomato sauce, vinegar, and honey; set aside. Put the sliced onions, carrots, and garlic in the bottom of a 5 to 7-quart slow cooker.

Remove the roast from the heat and place it on the vegetables in the slow cooker. Pour the broth and wine mixture into the hot skillet and use a spatula to scrape up any browned bits; pour over the roast in the slow cooker.

Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 hour. Reduce to LOW and cook for 7 to 9 hours longer, or leave on HIGH and cook for 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours longer. Serve with hot mashed potatoes and green beans or corn for a delicious and satisfying family meal.

1 cup of trinity at the bottom

Profit

$5 for four meals

one of those little 4 dollar pork roasts + any kind of salsa you want, all day in the crock pot and you've got a sandwich or roll it up in a wrap. it freezes easy so you don't have to eat the whole pot at once. you can also put it on top of a baked potato.

you can buy the little fryer chickens for 4 bucks too. put one of those in a crock pot with a can of cream of mushroom.

there's a site for 5 ingredient or less recipes, i'll see if i can find it.

also any kind of dried beans or peas can be cooked in a crock pot. serve with or over rice/potato.
