No lie. This made one of the most fabulous pot roasts we’ve ever had. Last week I pulled a chuck roast out of the freezer to thaw, but pulled it out a little late. I was sort of planning to finish the thawing in the microwave while I debated what […]

A Change To Beef Stew
Earlier this week I was flipping through the most recent issue of Real Simple magazine when I stumbled on a recipe for a Slow-Cooker Shepherd’s Pie. The picture was enticing. It looked like a pile of mashed potatoes surrounded by a beef stew, and that stew looked luscious! I read […]
In The Crockpot: Sausage and Peppers
