19 Dump and Go Slow Cooker Recipes

Some of these look really good, thought I'd share.

Yum!! Thanks for sharing.

Good morning, fine Lurkers! Sitting here in Austin early for my appointment at the VA medical center. Hope everyone has a great day! Today is spectacular! Cooler, clear blue skies. A far cry from yesterday that was humid, hot, and some severe storms late in the day.

Good afternoon Paul. Have a great day, yourself. Sounds like it will be.

Good morning lurkers

Enjoying a day with the grand girls My waitressing job is done. My back just couldn't handle the sweeping and mopping at the end and driving home that late in the evening was getting old fast. I have to say I am relieved!

Paul, glad you're getting nice weather today!

Sara, there are a couple/few that I definitely want to try.
The following is a Pork Carnita Slow Cooker recipe from DH's sister. I've had it, and made it, it's very good!
In case you get tired of chicken. It should be pretty versatile too.


Pork Carnitas:

Pork shoulder (3 ½ to 4 lbs) roast (can use with or without bone…the one that we had did have bone in but I’ve used both)
1 can of beer (use a lite style beer like Coors lite or Miller lite).
½ bunch of cilantro chopped (keep the rest to put on the pork tacos)
1-2 whole jalapenos (if you want it hotter, use 2 and poke holes in the jalapenos)….I didn’t put holes in them
2 crushed garlic cloves
salt / pepper on roast

Cook on high for 4 hours (or until easily falling apart) or low 8 hours

Shred pork. Serve with tortillas, chopped tomatoes, red onion, avocado, cilantro, lime juice squeezed over top, then sprinkle kosher or sea salt on it. Can also add cheese if you want.

That’s it! Very easy and good.

The alcohol will cook out, so no worries with littles.



Bobbi, sorry to hear it just didn't work out, but hey, at least you tried and hung in there for awhile.
Hopefully something better suited for you will come along.

Lunchtime flyby....

Has turned into a beautiful day here, sunny and a light breeze...wish we had more days like this.

Bobbi, sorry the job didn't work, but I'm sure something better will come along for you...enjoy your time with your grands.

Sorry it didn't work out Bobbi but completely understand

Glad you didn't break that hand Dale! That's a lot of weight for a single hand!

Thanks for all the sympathy but I can't say I am going to miss that job... the extra money maybe, but definitely not the job!

Me too! Hurts enough as it is!

I didn't figure you would miss the work Just hard to find a decent job we can do anymore

Hi, Dale! Sorry about your hand. Glad you didn't break something.
Yes, it was a checkup. I've had several bouts of skin cancer so they want to keep tabs on me quite often.

Oh dear! Dad has to do that often, they are forever cutting on him

Too much sun in my life. Luckily, any cutting has been fairly minor.

 

[WelshVapour]

Seeing as I have the time finally. I'm gonna sit here for a bit and annoy you all!

No not really, if I try to move it to far it hurts. Still soar but tolerable
