Instructions: DC)I am not the most creative person in the world when it comes to using my crock pot. Do any of you have favorite recipes you could post for me?

Here are a couple of things that I make in mine. I dont have exact measurements though, because these are just things I thought up myself.

Brown italian sausage (I usually get about two pounds) in skillet or put under

broiler just till browned. Drain off fat and let cool just till you can handle them. Meanwhile they are browning, cup up a whole bunch of onions and peppers, and if you want, add a clove of garlic. Place vegees in crockpot. Then cut up sausage in very small pieces. Add to crockpot. Cover with an eight-ounce can tomato sauce and add oregano, basil or whatever. Sook about six or seven hours. Serve in sub rolls or on hamburger burns or over rice.

2 Barbecued Beef

Get a very small pot roast. Season and put in crockpot. Cover with barbecue

sauce. Add more sauce near the end because the sauce will lose its flavor during cooking, or add new sauce after slicing. Remove roast from crockpot after cooking, and slice into thin slices. (maybe slices isnt the right word,

it kind of shreds.) Anyway, serve in hamburger buns. Good with baked beans and salad.
