I got a crockpot for Christmas, hurrah! It seems only right to begin with a slab of pork belly.

Belly pork and ratatouille is IN: 7h50m to go.

Well, that went pretty well, I think. What I put in:
An onionTwo peppers (one red, one yellow)Two courgettesTwo cloves of garlicA tin of tomatoesA tablespoon of cornflour (don't think this made much difference - would probably leave out another time)RosemaryA four-portion slab of belly porkA slosh of red wineLots of black pepper
All the veggies got a quick fry before being transferred to the slow cooker for eight hours. It was quite saucy - needed lots of mash to soak up the juice, but that's no bad thing.

i got the touchscreen one. it really does improve your life to have a dinner you can eat all week without so much cooking.

Totally. I made some jerk chicken overnight and it's going into some sandwiches, salads, tacos, etc. bonus: it took so little effort that I thought I had forgotten to do it when I woke up at 2:30am, but then I smelled it.

You are otm. All I did was put two spoons of jerk paste (I'll take a pic of the jar, made in Jamaica) + splash of apple cider vin + pkg of chicken thighs --> cook on low overnight, shred in the morning, the end!
Lol 'jerk paste'

the ingredients didn't list anything gross, and it tastes good (if a little salty, but that has never bothered me)

i find non-paste jerk to be pretty salty so it should be fine. i'll look for it.

i have never done anything like this but after sleeping most of the weekend due to snow i needed to use the chuck i bought to make goulash. i'm too sleepy to cut it up. i kinda hate how the nyt was too snobby to use a packet of ranch and had to make their own, but i did get "simply organic" ranch and gravy because you know http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/27/dining/mississippi-roast.html?partner=rss&emc=rss

I think I need to overhaul my beef chili recipe from first principles.
Also looking forward to trying out some curry and mole ideas once I get tired of chili test kitchen tweaking
