1 tablespoon liquid smoke flavoring

Doesn't have a name I know of, so call it Chris's roast or what ever you want.

3 lbs of chuck or round roast cut into 2 or 3 inch blocks.
1 large onion quartered
Couple stocks of celery cut into small pieces, use the stock, leafs and all.
Root vegetables you like cut into 3/4 inch pieces. Carrots, Parsnips, turnips, rutabagas, potatoes.
Place onion in bottom, next add the meat, then all the root vegetables except potatoes. (save those for the last 1.5 hours)
Add a can of cream of mushroom soup and a cup or more of red wine.
Salt and pepper to taste.

Add a bit more water if needed. Cook on high for an hour then on low for 7 to 8 hours. Add the potatoes the last 1.5 hours.

Comes out perfect every time. A complete meal in the pot. I have also added green beans and squash but also during the end time.

I'm sure glad Senior started this thread. I cannot tell you how much I've enjoyed copying all of these into my recipe file. I just bought a slow cooker several months ago, and haven't been using it as much as I'd like. Now I will.

I have one more recipe, but it's so simple I hesitate to list it. I think of myself as a pretty talented cook, but am probably fooling myself, but I want to keep up my reputation.

My pot roast recipe is just about my favorite, because it takes about 2 minutes to make.

I always made this in a dutch oven on the stove, but it works just as well in the crock pot and I don't have to worry about the cat checking it out.

3-4 pound roast of your choice. (I used to brown it, but honestly I see no different if you don't and a lot of cooking shows now say it really doesn't lock in anything.)

Salt, Pepper and Thyme. Put it in the crock pot. Add one can of beef broth, and one can of Campbells French onion soup. If you do it on the stove about 3.5 hours on simmer. The crock pot takes closer to 4 or a little more on high. The best thing about this is that the juices are ready to thicken for gravy without adding anything.

My mouth is watering from all of this, so I'm going to go have a frozen burrito for my dinner, lol. I always cook supper for my wife since she is still working and I"m not, but we have a financial guy coming at 5 and I'm under orders not to smell up the house cooking.

Thanks again everyone.

Arroz con Pollo - My favorite recipe for crock pot arroz con pollo was in the little cookbook that came with my first Rival crock pot. This was a shower gift, so it had to have been about 38 years ago. Nothing needed to be pre-browned. I cannot find the recipe anywhere. Figured someone here might have it. I would sure appreciate a copy of it, if you do have it.

We have been married 39 years. We got a Rival Crock Pot for out wedding. It was a great kind with a pot that sat on a base or could go on the stove. Now my wife never throws away an instruction book. I went and looked but could not find it.

BUT, I did a google search for the exact name of what came up below. Let me know if this is it:

RIVAL CROCK POT ARROZ CON POLLO

2 skinless boneless chicken breast, halved
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon corn oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 small red pepper, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon rosemary
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can tomatoes, chopped
1 (10 ounce) pkg frozen peas
2 cups cooked rice (to serve)

Season chicken with salt, pepper and paprika.

In medium skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and brown. Put chicken in Crock Pot.

In a small bowl, combine remaining ingredients except the peas and rice. Pour over chicken.

Cover; cook on Low 7 to 9 hours (High 3 to 4 hours). One hour before serving, add peas.

Serve over cooked rice.

Servings: 4
