Crock Pot Recipes Fri, 01/21/11 4:55 AM (permalink)
Hi,
Crock pot stewed beef
Dump a package of chopped stew beef in the crock pot. Add a can of cream of mushroom soup and a package of onion soup mix. Cook on low for the day. (I go anywhere from 8 hours to 11 hours) You can serve with rice or mashed potatoes. It makes a great gravy as well.
 
Thanks,

    Strangely, I do the same thing with a pound or so of cubed steak or round steak, wrapped in foil and baked in the oven (250 degrees for about 3 hours).  Your idea sounds great, I'll use it.  I love slow cookers.

      Pretty basic, but sounds tasty.

        What ever happened to recipes?  no canned anything, no packed anything.  Fresh vegetables-------their good for ya.  And the chopping is good exercise. 
        Takes a few seconds to chop and onion, a carrot, and a stalk of celery and make a bed for the beef.  Add some spuds. a little water and a little wine and some herbs----
         
        Voila-----a great stew-----sell your stock in Campbell's and eat
        --------------eau naturel.

            Sorta got me in the mood to make a beef stew.  I will add potatoes, onions, carrots, beef stew seasoning, chicken stock and some fatty beef.  I will add about a table spoon of flour to make it a bit thicker.
             
            I will fry some cornbread and make it thin where it is crispy and brown. I make the mixture very thin so it will spread out in the frying pan.  It cooks very quickly and I judge it to be comple when the edges turn brown and I flip it
             
            I will put it in the crock pot and let it go overnight.  It is very good the next day but even better the second.
             
            A real comfort food during some very cold weather here in Tennessee.

                Paul-----you win first prize.  Beats all that canned and packaged stuff 4 ways to Sunday.  It also makes the house smell terrific.

                  How do you make fried cornbread? I always thought you ended up with what was called a corncake or a johnnycake or a hoecake that way. What's the difference?

                    Probably nothing.  I just use cornmeal and water and fry it in a hot pan with oil.  I fry them until the edges turn brown and flip theml.  I fyou want to kick it up a notch, add corn, peppers and some pimento.  I do make the batter a little runny so it is thin and fries crispy.
                     
                    Always good.
