I bought a Crock Pot for $4 at Target the day after Christmas last year. I have not used it yet. It is so small, I'm not sure what I could cook in it

I'm not a big fan of Korean dishes. Even the savoury meals seem to often have a sweet (sugar) taste.

So....just meh. Not sure if it was the red wine or so much broth, but like everything it's trial and error. Next time I'm going without the wine/broth and will be trying the gravy since the roast makes so much juice on it's own. I'll also have to season A LOT more as it was kind of bland.

I pride myself on my excellent cooking skills so I'll get it down. Next up is ribs and the chicken recipe for chicken tacos. Also looking forward to some cold weather so I can try a good chili recipe.

Thanks for the thread though. I'm ready to try so many things in this pot. To come home and have something ready to eat is gold.

BTW- I never did open the pot. Just let it cook and the roast did come out tender as hell. Could barely pick it out and didn't even need a knife to cut it.

Man....I'm disappointed it didn't come out better for you. Getting it seasoned right is a must, so maybe that was it. When it's all finished, I'll sometimes mix in some flour to thicken it up and make it more gravy-like (ladle out some of the broth and add the flour separately....then mix it back into the whole thing....this prevent lumps). But don't give up on this recipe. You'll get it how you like it and you'll love it.

This is a great one for cold weather:

Here's another one that's awesome for winter:

What you'll need:
- A bunch of sausage (slice it up. I usually use ~3 lbs and either beef, pork, or turkey, or a mix depending on whether I feel like trying to be healthy.)
- New potatoes (~5 lbs - cut 'em up)
- ~2 lbs of baby carrots
- Whole onion (cut it up)
- A few cloves of garlic (minced, sliced, whatever. I mince it.)
- Salt & pepper to taste, but you shouldn't need much because the sausage has so much flavor already.

Layer it like so:
Potatoes -> add water to just below the top of the potatoes -> add carrots -> add onion -> add garlic -> add sausage. The longer you cook the better it is. When it's ready, ladle out some of the water and mix some flour in it before adding it back into the mix (this let's you mix it better, thus preventing lumps).
