Crockpot and Easy Meals "Index post 372"

[minnie1012]

I have 2 meals planned for it this week and its leaking. The last time I used it I noticed a puddle on the counter. The weird thing is its leaking from the top. The heat/steam seems to lift the lid slightly and water somehow drips out and into the non cooking piece as well as onto my counter. I just bought it about 3 months ago because I found a crack in my old one. I guess I'll call the manufacturer and see what they say.

I did the Boston butt, BBQ sauce and Cherry Coke today, turned out great. I'm going to chop up the leftovers, add more bbq sauce and have bbq sandwiches for the big game tomorrow. Keep these recipes coming.

I'm planning on doing the Boston Butt with Dr. Pepper and BBQ Sauce in the morning. GRISWALDS...How many lbs. was yours and how long did you cook it?

Does anyone have a good recipe for pork spareribs in the crock? I don't know if it's been posted before, but this thread is too long to go all the way back and search. We really need an index, don't we?

Not for a crock pot but good and easy to make.

Tater Tot Casserole
1 1/2 - 2 pounds hamburger
1 Family Size Can Cream of Mushroom soup
1 Bag tater tots
1 8oz bag Colby Jack Shredded Cheese

Cook Hamburger with salt and pepper until done breaking it up as it cooks.
Drain Well.
Mix meat with Cream of Mushroom Soup warm slightly.
Spread into bottom of 9x13 cake pan.
Place tater tots on top of above mixture. (laying them neatly out to form rows).
Cook 35-40 min at 350 deg.
Spinkle cheese on top (I use about 3/4 of the bag) and place back in oven till cheese is melted.

Let set 10min before serving.

I love this recipe.. I usually add mixed vegetables to mine. My family loves this one!

I had a 5 lb butt (don't I wish) and cooked it 10 hours on low, although it was probably done after 8-9 hours.

Whatever you do don't post that on the thread for the mom that did 1 year of menus I'm thinking that wouldn't pass the muster for healthy nutrition moms.

Just kidding. I mean the tater tot casserole not the chili BTW. Not sure how chili would pan out in that discussion.

chicken and corn turned out good yesterday. We prefer fried chicken but this was good - loved the corn. I was worried about it - it was frozen and we'd had it quite awhile - but turned out yummy. As for my first use of a liner....well, it did good until I started taking the chicken out of the bottom. Some of the chicken stuck to the bag and when I tried to take it out it shifted the bag, the side fell down and some of the juice leaked out into the bottom of the pot instead of in the bag. But that is still better than having the chicken stuck to the pot itself.

I have attempted to make an index post of all the recipes in the thread so far. The name of the recipe or if no name is listed the type of recipe will be listed as a link to the post with the recipe itself. Hope that makes sense and maybe the OP can change the name of the thread to reflect which post has the index and I will try to keep it updated as time goes on.

THANK YOU!!! WDmommyof4!
I have been printing these out, but missed quite a few.

 

[scard192]

THANK YOU!!! WDmommyof4!

Yes, thanks so much!

We are having the chicken with black beans tonight before the game

I made the chicken taco soup that's mentioned in post #16 several months ago...I got it from a different site but it's the same. Our PTA did a "Souper Teacher" lunch....everyone brought in different crockpot soups for our teachers on a halfday at school. It was awesome!! The teachers loved that soup.....I was the only one who didn't have any leftovers!

 

[kaytieeldr]

I have attempted to make an index

Oh, wow - thank you!

 

[WDmommyof4]

It was no problem. I got tired of having to go back and find a certain recipe each time I wanted it lol.
