I can smell it
At this moment, I have a pot roast cooking in the new CrockPot.
I have found a number of basic recipes. All the ones I first bought, books, are way to complex.
I should have known. That is what sells cookbooks. Complexity.
My experience is that the farther I stray from the basics the more effort is expended for about the same result.
So, I took refuge in the internet and found simple roasting recipes for a variety of meats.
There are also a few simple recipes in the brochure that came with the pot.
I started with one of those. Then I will move on if it is indicated, but I do not think that it will be.
Keep it simple.
I am not supposed to open it up while it is cooking 8 hours. I am supposed to be happy looking down through the glass lid which is totally steamed.
So I am taking it all on faith.
