Ham

I place a boneless piece of ham in the crockpot,
pour about 3/4 can of gingerale over it.

cook about 2 hours on low. If you cook it for a long time, the meat gets dark. Very moist

take care
binky

cut some carrots up, potatoes, and layer them on the bottom. Put your chicken pieces on top. Season and add about 1 cup of water. Cook on high for about 5 hours, remove and use the juice for gravey.


I also put pork chops and onions with 2 cans of mushroom soup, and 1 can of milk and cook the on high for about 5 hours also. Serve over rice... nummy...

Oatmeal!

In the evening:

# 2 cups steel cut oatmeal (also called Irish oats or Scottish oats -- not rolled oats)
# 6 cups water
# 1 Tbsp. cinnamon

Optional: raisins, craisins or other dried fruit, vanilla, walnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds, etc.

Put on low throughout the night, wake up to a warm and ready to go breakfast.
I like to add a dash of cream and a drizzle of maple syrup.
You can also replace 1 cup of water with a cup of milk or almond/rice/soy milk overnight to get a creamier consistency.

4 boneless skinless chicken breast
1 bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce
Fill the empty bottle with coke and add that

Stir the sauce, cook on low 4 + hours and pull apart with a fork.

Serve on buns with coleslaw on the side.

Make sure nothing is still frozen as the crock pot won't get hot enough to kill the bacteria according to what I read.

Well that's what I was thinking, I always defrost my meat overnight before if I'm putting it in a crockpot. I have never done chicken in it tho, or anything with hamburger, just way to leery of bacteria.
