WELCOME

Welcome to this slow cooker/crockpot blog. I believe slow cookers are the best thing to happen to modern day cooks. I used mine often when I worked outside the home and continue to do so even in retirement. It is so nice to put food on and forget about it. Slow cookers also allow us to cook many things we would normally have to use the oven for; what a relief in hot Texas weather! Some of these recipes are mine, many are ones I have collected over the years.

1 cup water
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
1 bay leaf
1 tbsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp paprika
3 yellow onions, quartered
1 stalk celery, cut up

Put the ingredients into the crockpot in the order listed above. Stir just enough to mix in the spices. Place lid on crockpot and cook on low for 10 to 12 hours or on high for 5 to 6 hours.
