                        remaining ingredients:
   4      lb            chicken, breasts and thighs
     1/4  lb            mushrooms, sliced
   2      tb            margarine or butter
  11      oz            (1 can) mandarin orange
                        sections, drained
     1/2                a medium-large bell
                        pepper, sliced lengthwise

     1/4  c             cold milk
     1/4  c             cold water

  Marinade:      The night before you plan on slow cooking your dinner, mix together the   marinade ingredients in a large, closable container large enough to also   hold the chicken pieces.  When marinade is thoroughly mixed, add the   chicken, close container and refrigerate until morning. In the morning place the chicken in the slow cooker and add marinade up to about an inch from the top of the container.  Set the cooker on low and cover.      6 to 8 hours later, turn the cooker to high.  About an hour later, saute   the sliced mushrooms in the margarine or butter. Then add the mushrooms   (with pan juices), mandarin sections, green pepper and ginger into the slow   cooker and stir thoroughly. Mix together the cornstarch, milk and cold   water, then gradually add into the slow cooker while stirring until the   entire mixture thickens a bit.      Re-cover the slow cooker and let simmer for 15 to 30 minutes until serving.   Serve with baby carrots and small new potatoes.

                        All-Day-Long Crockpot Beef

Recipe By     : Jo Anne Merrill
Serving Size  : 6    Preparation Time :8:00
Categories    : Beef                             Crockpot

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1 1/2  pounds        beef roast -- * see note
     1/2  teaspoon      black pepper
   2                    garlic cloves -- minced
     1/2  package       onion soup mix
   2      teaspoons     worcestershire sauce
   1      teaspoon      steak sauce
   3                    carrots -- sliced
   2                    celery stalks -- diced
   1                    green bell pepper -- chopped
   1                    yellow onion
     1/2  cup           water
     1/2  cup           tomato juice

* Use any cut of beef roast desired.

     1. Cut beef roast into serving-sized portions. Use more beef if you need more than 6 servings. Brown beef in a bit of vegetable oil, although you can skip this step if rushed for time.      2. Slice onion and separate into rings. Dice the peeled carrots, dice the celery and slice the peppers into thin strips or circles. Place these into bottom of crockpot. Sprinkle the beef pieces with fresh ground black pepper, minced garlic and the onion soup mix. Place on top of the vegetables.      3. Mix the steak sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl with about 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup tomato juice. Pour this over the meat.      4. Turn the crockpot to high for 30 minutes, or, if you're in a hurry, skip this step. Turn to low, cover and cook for 7-9 hours.

* Keep the crockpot covered as much as possible throughout cooking time. A crockpot can be used to cook this type of meal for a varied amount of time, depending on your schedule. It is not important that you take the meat and vegetables out at a specific amount of time. One or two hours either way usually makes no difference.

     When ready to serve, dip meat and vegetables out of pot with a slotted spoon. Use the liquid as is or turn crockpot to high and thicken liquid with a little flour or cornstarch.

Serving Ideas : Serve with mashed potatoes and a healthy bread.

                Soups

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/2                stewing hen or fowl
   2      quarts        chicken stock or broth
     1/4  cup           onion -- coarsely chop
     1/2  cup           carrots -- coarsely chop
     1/2  cup           celery --  coarsely chopped
   1      teaspoon      saffron threads -- (optional)
     3/4  cup           corn kernels -- (fresh/frozen)
     1/2  cup           celery -- finely chop
   1      tablespoon    parsley -- fresh chopped
   1      cup           egg noddles -- cooked

     Combine stewing hen with chicken stock, coarsely chopped onions, carrots, celery, and saffron threads. Bring the stock to a simmer. Simmer for about 1 hour, skimming the surface as necessary.  Remove and reserve the stewing hen until cool enough to handle; then pick the meat from the bones. Cut into neat little pieces.  Strain the saffron broth through a fine sieve. (Note: The soup can be made through this step in advance. Simply refrigerate broth and diced chicken meat for 2 to 3 days, or freeze  the broth and the chicken meat in separate convenient sized containers. Be  sure to label and date them.   To use, defrost, remove congealed fat, return the broth full boil, and  add the diced meat.  Continue with recipe.) Add the corn, celery, parsley,  and cooked noodles to the broth. Return the soup to a simmer and serve  immediately.

                            Andy Beals' Chili

Serving Size  : 12   Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Crockpot

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1 1/3  kg            canned beans (drained)
   1 1/2  kg            stewed tomatoes
   1      kg            beef -- cut into bite-sized
   2                    garlic cloves -- chopped
   3      medium        jalapeno peppers -- cut up
   2                    green bell peppers -- diced
   1      medium        onions -- diced (1 to 2)
   1      bottle        flavorful beer
  30      ml            cumin
  10      ml            paprika
   5      ml            cayenne pepper

1.  Saute the meat and onions. You may do it in the same pan that you are going to put the chili in. The meat should be brown on the outside, but you don't have to cook it much at this time. 2.  Drain the fat from the beef. 3.  Put everything in a big pot over low heat (a slow cooker is handy) and  stir together. 4.  Wait half an hour to an hour and check the flavor of the soupy base. Adjust as you see fit. Perhaps add more beer, hot peppers, or spices. Repeat as necessary. 5.  Wait as long as you can, stirring occasionally. You may eat it when the beans and beef are soft. Serve with bread, fresh-baked biscuits or cornbread. Author's Notes:     This is the descendant of the chili that I've been making since 1974.     This is best if it has cooked at least overnight. Generally it's ready  for consumption after about three hours. If you can't turn your stove down  to a very low heat, you're bound to burn the bottom of the chili a little,  but as long as you don't scrape it off, it will taste okay. Slow-cookers  are great in this regard! At the three hour mark, the chili is somewhat  soupy. If you want it to thicken up, turn up the heat a bit and let it  boil off the excess water. While doing this, stir every few minutes or you  may burn the bottom! I change the proportions of ingredients (double the  beef, drop the beans, add LOTS more cumin) all the time; this recipe is  just a general guideline. The amount of garlic given in the recipe is very  conservative. Garbanzo beans (chick peas) are nice, but they take a lot  longer to cook. Making it with lamb or Italian sausage instead of beef is  also interesting. Cherry peppers instead of jalapeno peppers are very nice  also. Do not use wimpy American beer!  I have found that Moosehead adds a  good flavor, and I bet that Anchor Steam will too. Difficulty    : easy. Precision     : no need to measure.

  14                    Apples -- quartered, leave
                        -skin on. I use Granny Smith
                        -any tart firm apple will do
   2       c            Cider -- sweet
   2       c            Sugar -- to taste
   1 1/2   ts           Cinnamon -- more or less
                        Lemon juice -- optional
                        -use if apples are too sweet

  1 use my large Crockpot for this recipe.
  
  1. Combine all ingredients and cook in high stirring
  occasionally for the first hour or so; covered. Then
  remove cover and turn down to low and stir
  occasionally. This is a slow process since you have
  NOT precooked the apples.  Will take 24 to 36 hours.
  But you have NEVER tasted anything so good. I think it
  is much better this way then precooking the apples. I
  usually stir in the skin every hour or so but this is
  not critical. You can cook during the night but I
  usually do not.
  
  2. If the skin on your apples refuses to break down,
  use a hand held blender and zap it a few times. If you
  don't have one of these wonderful gadgets, then zap in
  the food processor.
  
  CANNING:  You can process this in a water bath but I
  usually just keep it in the fridge; it never lasts
  that long. NOTE: The skin is the substance that makes
  it thick along with the evaporation of the water.
  Please try it with the lid of the Crockpot off. It is
  better than MUSSELMANS. The grandgirls say the house
  smells like Apple Pie and they love it with Peanut
  Butter on bread or over cottage cheese.  We always
  used to bring that back from PA. Now I think I'll take
  this down. I hope you all enjoy!!!

     1/4  teaspoon      garlic powder -- or garlic salt
   8      ounces        canned mushrooms -- drained

Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry; place in Crock-Pot.  In a saucepan, combine remaining ingredients and heat until smooth and hot.  Pour over chicken breasts.  Cover and cook on low setting for 8 to 10 hours.  (I did it on higher heat to speed things up.  I added boiled potatoes and some paprika towards the end.)  For the first time ever, I used those frozen boneless skinless bags of chicken.  NOT BAD!  Also, I have never been one to cook with soups before: have learned my lesson.  Once cooked in this recipe, you cannot tell there is canned soup as base for sauce.  This is delish!!!

                        -----JEAN POLZIN-NBKG80B-----
   4       lb           Pork Butt or Shoulder Roast
                        -lean, boneless
   2       lg           Spanish onions -- (sweet)
   1       lg           Bottle Kraft Honey BBQ Sauce
   1       c            Ginger Ale (or Coke)

  Cut onions in half lengthwise, slice in 1/4" slices,
  halve the slices and separate into rings.  Trim all
  possible fat from roast and sprinkle with garlic salt
  and seasoned pepper. Place half the onions in
  crockpot, put in roast and top with rest of onions.
  Pour 1 cup of soda over all, cover and cook on LOW for
  10 to 12 hours, or overnight until pork can be easily
  shredded with two forks.  Remove pork from pot, shred
  in a bowl, removing all possible fat.  Remove onions
  with slotted spoon and add to bowl. Discard juice in
  pot. Return onions and pork to pot, add BBQ sauce to
  all and mix.  Continue to cook on LOW for 5 to 6
  hours, adding more BBQ sauce as needed.  Serve as
  sandwiches in buns. Leftovers may be cooled, made into
  sandwiches, wrapped in heavy plastic wrap and frozen
  individually for later use.  They keep well and may be
  unwrapped, rewrapped in paper towels and heated in a
  microwave at 50% for a few minutes.

   1                    bay leaves -- ¥
                        water to cover.

Put in crockpot and cook about 4-6 hours on high or overnight on low. Beans should be soft (small white beans take longest, pinto beans shorter)   Add spices, veggies, etc. (see below) cook about another hour.  Spices:,  veggies, etc:  1) 1 tsp dried cumin, 1 tsp paprika, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, 1-2 Tbsp. soy sauce,   a few chili peppers, chopped, chopped green  pepper, can chopped tomotoes, some frozen corn. (Good with black beans) 1/2 tsp liquid smoke tastes good added.  2) 1 tsp cumin, 1 can chopped green chilis, chopped green pepper, 1 Tbsp soy sauce (good with white beans).  3) 1-2 Tbsp soy sauce, 1/4 cup molasses, 1/4 tsp cayenne, 1/2 tsp  dried mustard, (good with pinto or black eyed peas)  Garbanzo beans I usually use as a substiute in chicken recipes, so I'll freeze them with just the onions and garlic. Frozen black eyed peas are also a good staple to have on hand (for some reason that's the only legume that comes frozen except for lima beans which I don't like).

                        -----basic stew-----
   1 1/2  pounds        boneless lamb shoulder
   1      cup           stock
     3/4  cup           onions -- chopped
     1/2  tablespoon    garlic cloves -- crushed
                        -----this variation-----
   6      medium        carrots -- 3/4" pcs
  12      ounces        turnips -- 3/4" pcs
     1/4  teaspoon      thyme leaves
     1/4  teaspoon      rosemary -- crumbled
     1/2  teaspoon      black pepper
   1      cup           chicken stock
   2      tablespoons   flour

     You may substitute pork shoulder or beef chuck for the lamb. Use beef  stock for beef, chicken stock for pork or lamb.     Basic stew: Trim meat  of fat and cut into 1-1/2" chunks.  Bring all ingredients to boil in 4-qt pot, cover tightly, reduce heat,  and simmer 2-1/2 hours, until meat is tender. Crockpot directions: pile  all ingredients into crockpot and cook all day on LOW. When done: skim off  and discard fat.     It takes less than 8 minutes to assemble this stew.  Then you can pay it little or no attention as it simmers for about 2-1/2 hours. Make multiples of the basic stew, then divide stew into  4-serving portions; refrigerate or in airtight containers for up to 5  days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in microwave-safe container on  defrost or in refrigerator for 24 hours.  To assemble: bring basic stew, vegetables, and spices to boil in 3-qt pot.  Reduce heat, cover, and  simmer 15 minutes, stirring twice, until vegetables are almost tender.   Whisk chicken stock with flour until blended. Stir into stew and simmer,  uncovered, 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until gravy is slightly  thickened and vegetables are tender.   This stew is also good made with  beef or pork.

   2                    garlic cloves -- peeled
   3                    bay leaves

  Put rinsed beans in large saucepan. Add water, cover and let stand overnight.  Drain off water the next day. Put beans, barley and  remaining ingredients into crockpot.  Stir. Cover and cook on high for 4  hours. Remove bay leaves.  Salt to taste when serving. Sylvia's comments:  I nuked the beans to fast-soak  them, and it worked great.  Even the kids liked this one!  I used a fine-ground  wurst instead of Polish sausage and cut it into bite-sized pieces before  cooking.  I also added some powdered beef stock to the water for cooking.   Then I packed the soup into empty jars to take to work.  It reheats great!  Also worked well for a quick supper for the kids. Definitely a keeper.  I  might add some chopped browned onions next time, though.

                              BEEF ROAST(S)

Recipe By     : Crockpot Cooking from Barbara Blitz
Serving Size  : 0    Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Crockpot

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
                        Beef Roast(s)
                        onion
                        spices
                        potatoes/carrots/sweedes/
                        turnips -- optional

Instructions: ------------- Brown the roast(s) on all sides in a little  
bit of oil.  Place in the crock pot.  Add an onion, cut in about 6-8  
pieces.  Add spices (we don't use salt - we add Mrs.  Dash Garlic and  
Herb, plus some additional garlic and pepper).  Cover with water.  
Sometimes I add a dash of beef boullion granules.  Set on high.  I let  
this simmer away for about 5 - 6 hours.  We usually add potatoes  
(quartered) the last 60-80 minutes. Other root veggies work great too.  
Now, for the DOUBLE DUTY: ------------------------- For the leftovers, I  
slice the roast somewhat thin, and breakup up the slices (sort of shred  
it), put it in a sauce pan and add barbecue sauce and a little water.  I  
let this simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.  If it gets  
too dry add more sauce or water.  Serve on rolls.  This is great to take 
for lunch and heat in the microwave at work. Note: ----- Be sure to select 
a roast or  two that will fit it the crock pot!  (My first one didn't!)

   1      pound         Same cut into 2 to 3 inch -- links to serve on th
                        and pepper to taste

Preparation : "Feijoada Completa" Ingredients: Meats: Beans: Wash and look 
for gravel then soak overnight in a bowl being sure  beans are well 
covered with water. For cooking use a large crock pot or soup pot, cast 
iron preferable.   First, brown bulk sausage in a skillet and pour off 
excess grease.  I have  discovered a lean bulk sausage that is great, much 
less grease and fat.  Add other meats and stir to brown. Add bell pepper, 
onion, garlic, celery,  parsley, oregano, basil, bay leaf, and clove. Salt 
and pepper moderately,  taste after cooking several hours and add more if 
needed.  Add beans and  soak water and if necessary add more water to 
cover entire ingredients by  at least two inches. Stir in four bouillon 
cubes. Cover and cook on crock pot high for three hours then turn to low 
for at  least six hours.  If cooking in a stove top soup pot, bring to a 
LOW boil  for two hours then continue cooking on low simmer for six hours, 
stirring  every hour or two to keep from sticking on the bottom of the 
pot. I like  to use the crock pot and leave it cooking on low overnight. I 
stir it  about twice and sometimes find it necessary to add water. If it 
gets too  watery, take about 1/2 cup of beans and mash with a fork until 
pasty to  add back as a thickener. About an hour before serving stir in 
vinegar.  Serve beans and meat over rice.  I have found brown rice to be 
quite tasty  but white rice is fine too. Serve in a soup bowl and top with 
fresh  chopped onion. The Brazilians top with farina or wheat germ. Serve 
the extra sausage, which has been browned separately, on the side  for 
those who want extra meat. Compliment your main dish with a mixed green 
salad consisting of  everything but the kitchen sink and oil

--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   3      pounds        Brisket
   1 1/2  pounds        Green beans
   6                    Potato -- peel/quarter
     1/4  teaspoon      Marjoram -- crumbled
                        Salt & pepper -- to taste

   1-   Wipe meat and place in large pot. Cover with about 2 cups water.  
Vegetables may be added to the meat in a crock pot along with seasonings  
and the whole thing cooked 1O hours.  2-  In a dutch oven, simmer 2 to 2  
1/2 hours before adding vegetables, then continue until potatoes are done. 
  3-  In a pressure cooker, bring brisket, water and seasonings to 15 #  
pressure and cook for 3O to 4O minutes. Reduce pressure under cold water,  
open cooker, add vegetables, cover, bring to 15# pressure and cook 5  
minutes, reduce pressure again.       However you cook it, remove meat, 
slice  thinly on the diagonal, serve with green beans and potatoes 
drenched with  cooking liquid. Do not thicken the natural gravy.   It has 
a lovely flavor and should not be greasy. If your meat is not well 
trimmed,  remove excess fat before cooking. Should you have leftovers, 
heat the  remaining liquid and slice the meat for open face or French dip 
hot sandwiches.

Walt:  I have a great recipe for brisket of beef.  It is easy, makes its' own great gravy and tastes even better as leftovers. This can be cooked either in slow cooker or the oven. Either way, put in the brisket, mix the  onion soup with 2 cups of water and pour it over the meat. Pour the can of  stewed tomatoes over the brisket. Place the cookies in the liquid, not on  the meat.  You can break them up to fit. Seal the pan securely with aluminum foil. (If in a slow cooker just put on the lid.) Bake at 325 for three hours without peeking !! Take out the meat, and slice it thinly against the grain and return it to the pan with the gravy. Reseal and bake  at 225 for about one hour. Make sure all the meat slices are covered by the liquid so the meat does not dry out. This is tender and delicious. The  gravy is great over rice or wide noodles.

                Brute Force Chili ("Electro-Sport Chili")2

                        e  *****

Approx 1 hour prep time. 2 to 24 hours cooking time. Please note that it won't fit in a 5 quart crock pot without letting it reduce (boil down) overnight. If you buy the Shredded Beef, make sure you let it cook at least 3 hours  -- 6 or 12 hours is even better.  (I start it the day before and let it cook all night.) This recipe is courtesy of Mike "Brutus" Dratch, former Chili Director at Electro-Sport. I have been tinkering with it ever since 1987... Brown these three ingredients with a little oil in a pan or two. 4-6 lbs        Chuck roast. Chop it up into little bite-size pieces. I  am          now a firm believer in buying the "Shredded Beef" at your          supermarker butcher counter. (Cook as long as possible,  like              6 hours or more.) Another alternative is to ask for the            coarse "chili" grind; not all butcher counters will be  able               to do this. 1 TB or more     Garlic powder. Or a dozen or so cloves of fresh garlic. I                  usually just shake in more garlic powder (or fresh garlic                  from a jar) each time I put more meat in the pan. 1                Medium onion, dice into small pieces. I've been using red                  onions lately. Drain off the fat, then mix EVERYTHING in your pot: 16 oz            can of stewed tomatoes. (A 14.5 oz can will do.) Last  time around I used an 8 oz can of Mexican-style and an 8 oz  can of      Italian-style. 2-3 cup          beef broth. We used 2 cans of Campbell's, but you could  use                  boullion. 1 pkg brown gravy mix 4 TB             Cajun Seasoning. (Recipe originally called for 1 oz                  California or New Mexico chili powder; New Mexico chili                  powder will make the chili very spicy hot.) 2 TB             ground Cumin. You'll find cumin and chili powder in the                  Mexican section, it's often cheaper that way. 1 TB          Oregano or Italian Spices. 1 tsp            black pepper 1 TB         Paprika. This is mostly for color. 1 beer           Any kind. I used Coors "Cutter" most recently. 1 TB             brown sugar 7 oz       can diced green chilis. This is the larger of Ortega's  two         can sizes. 1 tsp            dry mustard 6-10             yellow chili peppers. They come in a bottle. Cut off the                  stems, squeeze out most of the seeds, dice them up and  throw them in. I used 8 last time around. 1 TB             vinegar. We used the vinegar from the chili pepper bottle                  (above). 1      juice of a lime. Recipe originally called for 1 TB lime  or        lemon juice. Cook all this for at least two hours over a low fire. If it's not thick enough, thicken it with flour or cornstarch (we used flour); if needs to be thinned, add water or beer. The yellow chili peppers are optional. Obviously, all of these ingredients can be varied to taste. Brutus suggests getting a bottle of hot sauce, such as Tapatio or Louisiana Hot Sauce for those who like it a little spicy. (We  got Red Devil La. Hot Sauce, but I didn't use it myself.) Also diced onions  and/or shredded cheese on top is good. (I put some cheddar on top every time.)   Brute Force Chili can trace its origin back to a chili cook-off winner printed in a newspaper long ago.  The current evolution is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser, and can be made as hot & spicy as you like it.  "As is" it's a good tasty chili, made for rolling up in tortillas with lots of cheese and whatever else you like to eat your chili with.  It should cook for at least 3 hours, 6 hours or overnight if you can spare the time.  The longer it cooks, the more tender it gets, however you may get tired of the smell after a day of cooking it.  When it's been cooking long enough, the meat gets so tender the chunks are literally falling apart.  It's good, though. "Chili" Baden, Institute for Chili Studies, Box 1792, Redondo Beach CA 90278
