I’m Giving Away an All-Clad Slow Cooker!
Fall is here! Well, it’s almost here and I’m giving away an All-Clad Slow Cooker! In Colorado the arrival of fall weather is good news after this incredibly hot summer that started with dangerous and destructive fires. The air is cooler, the leaves are just starting to change and football is back! All of this means that I am in a good mood and feel like doing a giveaway! I can’t think of anything better to usher in fall than a new slow cooker from All-Clad.
This slow cooker is fantastic. I have had one for a few years and it produces delicious dishes. I also love the cast insert that you can put right on the stove to brown your meats before cooking them low and slow. The shiny stainless steel finish is so much prettier than those old fashioned slow cookers. I keep mine on the counter for months during the fall and winter soup seasons.
To enter the giveaway, simply leave a comment in the comments section below and tell me what recipe you would make first in your new All-Clad slow cooker. I’ll select a name at random on Friday, September 14th. Be sure to fill in your first and last name as well as your email address so I can reach you when you win!
Ready…. set….. GO! π
UPDATE 9/15/12: THE DRAWING IS NOW CLOSED AND WE HAVE TWO WINNERS.
Thank you to everyone for entering and sharing your slow cooker ideas! I loved reading all the comments and it makes me wish I would win the lottery
so I could give each one of you a new slow cooker! In fact, this was so much fun I promise to give more of these slow cookers away this fall/winter. Due to the
issues with the comments section, I added a second slow cooker to the drawing to make sure everyone had a chance to win.
I randomly selected two winning names – one from these comments and one from the entries on the Facebook fan page.
Congratulations….
DORIS MERRITT
and
KACY SMITH
I will be in touch on Monday via email to arrange shipment of your brand new slow cookers!
Disclaimer: Photo credit: Williams-Sonoma.com. All-Clad and Williams-Sonoma are not affiliated with this giveaway. I will be purchasing this item with my own hard-earned money from Williams-Sonoma and it will be shipped directly to the winner soon after the winning name is randomly selected.
I would make a delicious roast beef with all of the veggies. Love cooking that in a crock pot. Thanks a lot for having this great give-away for someone! Very Special of you to do this.
Stuffed Pepper Soup or Turkey Black Bean Chili! I love them both, and they both freeze well! Love the fact that once you brown the meat, it’s a ‘throw all in the crock pot’ and let it go! YUM!
PORK WITH APPLES, HABANEROS ,TOMATILLOS ,ONIONS ,BROWN SUGAR
I would make my famous meatloaf!
I find it funny that the two people to win did not fallow instructions. And that very few did. But these two did
beg.

I would make just about anything honestly. The house we were renting was foreclosed on and done so very quietly. I only had 2 days to get everything out of the house. I lost most of my kitchen supplies. I didn’t realize we would be living in a motel for months on end. I can’t see us getting into a house anytime soon.
I would love this slow cooker simply to cook anything. I’ve been cooking things in the microwave.
That is a beautiful Slow Cooker! I’m a big chile fan – just found a recipe that

I left you a comment, a couple days ago for this……. But can’t find it now (so if this is a ‘duplicate’, I’m sorry, I did look through ALL of the comments, but coulda missed it…sigh…) I’ll try again π
In ‘my mind, it’s not what ‘I’ would make but my Son…. He and his roommates are attending college and working full time…… Their crockpot (was mine first 20+ yrs old) died…. They used it 5 out of 7 days and ate MUCH better than I ever did at their age……My son would probably make elk stew ( he makes a ‘mean’ stew) Of course, it would be in my ‘hand me down’, as ‘I’ would get the new one ( LOVE my child, but there are ‘limits’ to my generosity, lol) …………….. Considering time for shipping, I’m guessing I’d get it just in time for my pumpkin butter (Mmmmm, my favorite ‘butter’)and of course, the football chili
Ooops, if I read ALL the rules (duh, me) Tracy Thackery……… tracerracer@ccountry.com

Dear Laura,
Have you been losing weight? You look so slim and beautiful! (I’m buttering you up). Seriously though, I’d chop up a Pork Roast, add chile’s, onions etc, cumin., Then take a Whole Wheat Tortilla, add the pork, along with Avacado, Fresh Salsa, Coriander, and lettuce or sprouts. I’ve been wanting to make this along with all of the enticing recipes you give us, but I don’t have a crock pot.
Thanks,
Mary Miller
Many, many, many roasts! And soups … Cheesey Brat Soup for one!
I think I would christen it’s beauty with my most heart warming memory of my Granddad’s Baked Beans.A combination of spices, brown sugar and bacon, warm the soul with sweet childhood memories.
For our second annual block party last weekend I encored my grandmother’s Indonesian Chicken in Sweet Soy Sauc with Ginger…This would be the perfect vessel for a third slow-cooked dish of this deliciousness.
My slow cooker recently died after 20 years of service. I’d LOVE to receiver this one! I’d first make a warm spicy dhal. Yummy! Good luck everyone. π
My favorite fall recipe, my son never ate the crust so I started making this and it is a huge hit! Great for pot lucks π
Crock pot Pumpkin Pie Pudding
–1 can of pumpkin puree (15 oz)
–1 can evaporated milk (12 oz)
–3/4 cup white sugar
–1/2 cup Bisquick
–2 eggs
–2 T butter, melted
–1 1/4 tsp cinnamon
–1/2 tsp nutmeg
–1/4 tsp cloves
–1/8 tsp ginger
–2 tsp vanilla extract
The Directions.
Use a 4 quart crock-pot and it was the perfect size. If you only have a big one, you can use it, but be aware that the batter will be spread out more and will cook much quicker. If you insert an oven-safe dish into the crock, it will work, but the batter will be quite thick and will take a VERY long time. Plan accordingly.
Spray cooking spray into your crock-pot.
Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients, and whisk until fully blended. No need to use a hand or stand mixer, just some elbow-grease.
Pour the batter into the prepared crock-pot. Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours, or on low for about 6. Check your “pie” after 2 hours on high, and 3 hours on low, then check every 30 minutes.
When fully cooked, the pie will look just like a finished pumpkin pie. The batter will have browned and will crack in a few places. The center will have set enough for you to touch it without getting batter on your finger.
Let sit in the crock-pot until room temperature, then spoon into serving dishes and top with whipped cream.
I would make black bean and corn salsa pork chops!
I could make a nice vegetarian shepherd’s pie in that crock pot!
Either beef stroganoff or my cream cheese chicken and rice. Probably the stroganoff.
I would Love to add this appliance to my kitchen! Thinking of BBQ Pork Butt, Chocolate Chili, Beef Tips, Lamb Shoulder, Soup, Soup & more Soup! I even know of a cake recipe π Fingers Crossed X)
I would make my wedding soup with ground pork/beef/veal/chicken meatballs.
My crock has beee a lifesaver on many days. I would probably make bean soup*AKA Funeral soup) My uncle Frankie used to make a big pot of “Bean Soup” each time there was a funeral, it was something that could stretch, was delishious and hearry! And since Uncle Frankie isn’t with us anymore, I think of him each time I make a pot, and wonder why it is not even close to his!
I would make cassoulet.
I myself do not have a crockpot, but we (my grandpa and I) tried your recipe for smokey chili in his crockpot and the entire family loved it! That would be the first thing I would make in a crockpot if I win it (or even if I don’t, when I can I’ll buy one and make it).

Potato, parsnip, carrot, onion, beet, celery root, anything from the ground, along with beef cubes floured and peppered and salted and seared . . . mmmmmmmmmm

I would make my famous homemade beef stew with locally grown vegetables and beef. I love the smell that a slow cooker has in the house as dinner is cooking with very little effect from me

Vegetable soup.. I look forward to reading your post. Thanks for all the info you share.
I’ll make this . . .
Barbecue Pulled Pork Sandwiches
pork butt (I used 2.5 lb – but you can use whatever size needed for your family)
1 can Pepsi 1 – no aspartame
1/2 bottle Stubb’s Barbecue Sauce (I plan to use my own, home canned sauce, but for you poor, unlucky types who don’t have that . . .)
Lawry’s Seasoning Salt
Generally coat pork butt with Lawry’s seasoning salt, don’t be afraid to cover it all! Place in crock pot and pour in soda and barbecue sauce. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours. If you have a larger piece of meat, it will probably take longer. After 4 hours or so, take two forks and shred the meat into bite size chunks. Let it sit in the juice to soak up all that flavor. It can stay on warm in crock pot while serving, and can easily be reheated the next day. Serve on a kaiser roll and add more barbecue sauce if needed.
I like sliced pickled peppers, sliced onion, and mustard with BBQ sammiches.
I’ll serve it on my low carb, gluten free waffle bread, ‘cuz wheat is poison . . .
:o)
CHILI! I’ve messed around with a lot of chili recipes, including my own, but I always come back to Tyler Florence’s Beef Chili with Red Beans and Chocolate as my absolute favorite.

Nothing can beat a slow cooker when you’re pressed for time and yet want a scrumptious meal to look forward to at meal time.– and it’s also masterful at watering your taste buds up as you smell what’s cooking throughout the day.

I’m just learning how wonderful the crock pot can be! I bought an experimental crock pot just a very simple one to save time during the workweek. I have learned to appreciate coming home from work and the wonderful smells from the crock pot, I have tried some of your great recipes. My husband loves pot roast the most of course.

Sad day in my house, I broke out the slow cooker for some chili and Monday night football. The slow cooker has been a good friend but after serving the meal it took it’s last breath and is no longer useable. I planned another meal for tonight but it seems that will have to wait. Found a new recipe for artisan bread in the slow cooker and dying to make it.
A hearty mushroom soup with Kale, potatoes and white beans, with just a hint of apple.
I would make “Hocks N Beans” I use unsmoked hocks, great northern beans and have been experimenting w/veggie in the mix, I like turnips and rutabagas. Slow cookers are the best invention ever, specially when you are a single mom and work all day.
It’s almost Chili time again and I slow cook it to it’s full delicousness!
This is a beautiful crockpot! Think I would have to make some yummy rotel dip in it!
Love your website and facebook page, I’d be interested in trying a new recipe that’s mexican themed called Chickadilla Soup”, Kashi published this in a Family Circle magazine and it sounds warming, hearty and delicious. I’m always excited to try new soups and this Iron Clad crockpot would be perfect for this soup. Happy Fall!
I would make my sister-n-law’s chili. It’s the best recipe I have ever tried! That, and it’s football season. perfect combo.
Oh goodness, I’ve had my eye on this cooker forever! *fingers crossed*
I have been jonesing for this slow-cooked red posole recipe that my husband and I made last winter. It was off the charts good. I think it was from a Cook’s Illustrated cookbook. MUST. FIND. ASAP π

A big pot of Chili
I will make crock pot delicious chicken -a recipe consisting of chicken breasts (on the bone, lemon juice, celery salt, paprika, cream of celery and cream of mushroom
soups, dry white wine, and Parmesan cheese. Cook and serve over rice. It is delicious, easy, and your house will smell wonderful! This was a recipe given to me when I was a young girl and had a passion for cooking. An elderly woman in our church, known for her culinary skills (ESP, in baking and candy-making) generously shared this recipe with me. She has long since passed away, but the aroma takes me back to a woman who inspired me to have a passion for cooking, baking, and entertaining! π
I would certainly make chicken tacon soup! Mmmm…………I hope I win!

Stew a whole chicken
My husband would love for me to cook a nice big stew!
I would have to say beef stew also! Eagerly awaiting cooler temps here in AZ!
I’ll be making chili! I’m excited for the cooler weather!
I would make chili
Saw a recipe from Six Sisters on how to cook pulled pork by using and kind of pork. They used pork chops.
A whole chicken with leeks.Smells and tastes wonderful.
So many good foods come out of slow cookers! I haven’t had one for about 4 years and I soooooo miss it. First thing I cooked would probably be beef stew. But veggie soup, BBQ chicken, or Chicken and Dumplings would follow close behind. Thanks for having this giveaway. I’ve been drooling over this very one for months now.
Buffalo chicken macaroni & cheese
I would make Balsamic Chicken, our family favorite! I would love to win this, as my slow cooker still works, but I have to use a pair of pliers to change the settings as the knob is broke lol. π
Nothing like a good pot roast with all of the fixings that are coming in from the garden. I love to use the sirloin tip roast and add carrots, parsnips, turnips, new potatoes, sweet onion, butternut squash, and mushrooms. I put together a hearty buillion base with a bit of sweet apple cider and of course fresh minded garlic, pepper, and salt to taste. Nothing like all of those wonderful aromas tempting you on a cool autumn day!
Sorry…forgot to give you my name! π
Since I don’t see my post I am being on the safe side and trying again! Your pork green chili stew. It is the BEST.
February 22, 2009. Categories Chilis/Stews, Comfort Food, Slowcooker / Crockpot, Soups, Southwestern / Mexican.
My husband, when he was 10 years old, created his own Chili recipe. I have the index card he wrote it down on and it is one of my little treasures. His Chili is a favorite in our family, and just as our family has grown and changed over the years (hence the reason for a bigger slow cooker) so has his chili recipe, but it would definitely be the first thing I would make in a new All-Clad Slow Cooker!!
I love slow cookers! I would make a vegan Nacho Bake!
I would love to win this on Friday. It is my birthday! I would cook a chicken pot pie!!!
I would make apple crisp! Yum!
Lasagna since I recently discovered making it in a slow cooker
baked beans & bacon…yum!
Swedish meatballs! Tummy! I love my slow cooker!
Chicken Chili, although there are a lot of good ideas being posted.
pork roast,rice & gravy & baked apples!
I would be making my yummy tortilla soup – it’s good not matter if the weather is warm (makes us feel like we are in Mexico) or cold (just makes us feel good – especially with a great marg!)
Since I’m working in Denver now, this would come in very handy for weeknight dinners!
We live by crock pot at least 2 nights a week – the very first meal to come out would have to be Lasagna, or maybe Chicken Posole, ooooo wait beef and leak sandwiches with au jus!!
I would make taco chili! I would love to win this slow cooker! My husband and I both loved our other one – he was trying to be helpful and stir our meal one evening and place the lid on the counter but then accidently knocked it off and it shatter π
Citrus braised pork tacos……yum!
Would have to stir up my famous Mexican Cheese Dip…Thanks for all you do Laura, we enjoy your post and knowledge. Keep up the great work!
Chicken Chili! Can’t wait to get a batch going for fall football season!
First….for the slow cooker fresh green beans, cottage ham, onions, new potatoes. Sides would be fresh sliced tomatoes, and corn on the cob. Gosh…..this always takes me back to vacation as a child to my Grandfather’s place in Jasper, Alabama. All the veggies were out of his garden. It was the best thing I ever tasted.
I would cook a nice beef stew in my cooker. Fall is here and we need something to warm us up.
I would make a BIG ol’ pot of beef stew for my honey-pie!
Whole chicken with beans, sausage and kale.
Beef Stew with bread in my bread machine.
Actually look forward to cooler weather so I can eat comfort food.
slow cooked potroast… carots, potatoes – yum yum
Turkey Lasagne, my own heart healthy creation
Ribs, Country style
buffalo chili!
love, love, love chili!
Sept.14 was my cousins Birthday .We use to get together and cook all kinds of dinners together.On her Birthday her daughter and family and I get together and we cook ” POT ROAST” thats for YOU DEBBIE.WE LOVE and MISS YOU
The first recipe I’d make is my mother’s beef brisket. She LOVED crockpot cooking because as a working mom, she wanted dinner to be ready as soon as she got home. I remember her telling me to chop, dice and sautΓ©e various items and she’d throw them together into her big pot. It would be an honor to her memory to share the same experiences with my kids. I am sure they’ll love dicing onions as much as I did!!
Taco soup – or steel cut oatmeal – or green chili. . . not sure.
I would make Italian Sausage Tortellini Soup. That would really hit the spot for the cold winter months we have arriving soon here in Northern Maine!!
Sure would love to see a pot roastcookin in there!
Wow! that is so nice of you, Laura! I would make Chili for football , of course! for my first meal in crockpot! My old crockpot is well worn and doesn’t heat properly anymore. π
Everyone’s recipes are making me hungry! I’d probably make beef stew or pulled pork for sandwiches. Thanks!
Gluten free cream cheese chicken, yum!
Yeah! Would love to make apple butter in a beautiful pot like All-Clad!
7-bean Chili for fall!
Laura i love making oxtail in a slow cooker you r all clad cooker would make browning the meat and the whole dish pure heaven I love looking at your page and trying your recipes Thank You for all you do Cheers! (smiles)
Slow cook boneless ribs. OH my yes.

My favorite dish from my mother in law who passed away earlier this year. Grandma’s favorite brisket/pot roast (Jewish style).
Jack Hoffman
I’d make calico beans. yum!
Being from the south I would make seafood gumbo:)
Pulled Pork (; Need a new slow cooker…(;
Chicken chili verde — mmmm.
Chicken Tortellini Soup!
I think I would have to initiate the slow cooker with a big batch of chili!!!
My daughter and her family recently moved in with my husband and I. We grew from two adults eating dinner to 8 almost overnight. I love crockpot cooking. I think our first recipe would be some version of crockpot spaghetti or lasagna (since those are our grandbabies’ FAVORITES)!
Hmmm hard choice, but my slow cooked pulled pork is always a favorite!
I’d love to use this slow cooker to make German beef Rolladen, made from round steak strips tenderized and rolled up with onion, dill pickle and bacon.
some spicy chicken gumbo to warm your heart….
I would make my “busy batch”. It is kind of like “hearty beef stew” meets “enchilada soup”. Amazingly delicious and, most importantly, quick and easy. I often feel like the guy from the donuts commercial a long time ago. Especially the commercial where he is leaving the house saying “time to make the donuts” and realizes he is passing himself coming back in the door and the “him” that is coming in the house says in a very tired voice “I made the donuts”. So, I created my “busy batch”.
I just noticed you requested the last name, too. So, I posted this reply with it.
Thanks Lisa!
When the weather gets cooler I love cooking a hearty beef stew. A crockpot would help me make a great stew. π
Oh, I would use that crockpot for so many delicious recipes. First though, I’ll make my grandmother’s Portugues Bean Soup! Ham shanks, onion, potatoes, tomatoes, portuguese sausage, and some cabbage and little macaroni last. Yumminess!!
If I had that beautiful slow cooker I would buy a pork roast and make carnitas. It is so simple and delicious and smells delightful!
White Chili Suprise will be my first endeavour in a new crockpot
CROCK-POT PIZZA (yep pizza) – see http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Crock-Pot-Pizza for this great idea
I have been wanting to try a pull pork recipe I found on Pinterest. The know on my slow cooker is broken. Most of the time, I have to guess if it is on high or low. Thank you for the opportunity to win a new one!!
I’d make apple butter! I don’t have a slow cooker and totally want one. Thanks for the chance!
Spicy Chicken-Vegetable & Cilantro Sausage Soup
I would make Taco soup for a cool evening of watching football.
I need a slow cooker as ours died. I had gastric bypass surgery nearly two months ago and there are so many healthy recipes that I want to try. I would start with a pot roast, I think, then soups for the fall.
Chili – classic fall/football food.
I would cook up my first batch of cinnamon apples!
White chili for the very first crockpot recipe! When I downsized I didn’t think I’d use a crockpot so gave it to my daughter and miss some great recipes
Chicken and Rice for the kids!!!
Fantastic! We’re torn: we’ll use the slow cooker at first for one of two disparate recipes: a tomato reduction for canning of sauce/paste, and a blueberry reduction for the same purpose. We’re experimenting with creating yummy gifts for the holidays, and we think a sweet AND savory combo makes a perfect stocking stuffer. Our garden is in overdrive right now, and our last blueberry picking outing yielded 30 pounds currently in deep freeze!
I am going to make homemade spaghetti sauce and eggplant “meatballs”. Then when the cold really hits, I am going to make the awesomist pho style veggie noodle soup. I would so love a new slow-cooker, especially this one π
The first thing I want to make is a hearty chicken and dumplings the whole family can enjoy. There are very few things that EVERYONE here likes and family dinner is so important. This is one of the few things I can get everyone to enjoy together.
I love to use a crock pot, especially in the fall and winter. I think the first thing I would make in this crock pot would be that Smoked Chipotle Citrus Pulled Pork you posted a few weeks back! That sounded wonderful!
Sticky honey hoison chicken
My grandmother used to make a delicious creamy chicken for thanksgiving and I have made it as well, but have added my own touches to it and that would have to be the first thing I would make — it is my dad’s favorite and so it would be that that i would make…My kids love it as well…
Chipolte Brisket (roast) Taco’s -they are fantastic
My first dish in that marvelous cooker would be a whole chicken “pot-roast.” Some onions, chicken stock, garlic salt, seasoned salt, seasoned pepper, poultry seasoning–midway through, add peeled potatoes, carrots, and a couple shakes of ketchup! Wonderful!
Fall is my most favorite season! I can’t wait to make some all day chili in my new crock pot!
I’m perfecting chile colorado (or I was before my slow coooker died on me) and that’d be the first thing I cooked.
I woudl make steel cut oats oatmeal….maybe apple cinnamon flavor !!
I would make either chili or corned beef, cabbage & potatoes…yummy!

Pot Roast (!), although I recently saw a slow-cooker cheesecake recipe that sounds awesome. π
It’s still hot in southern Oklahoma. I like to make my roast in a slow-cooker. It doesn’t heat up my house. π
I would make meatloaf.
My favorite thing to cook in slow cooker, red beans and rice. It’s so much easier than having to soak them or watch them. I also love the kind of slow cooker where you can brown your meat first.
I would talk my wife into making her unbelievable tasty sweet & sour meatballs. It’s a unique combo of chilli sauce and grape jelly. Always everyone’s favorite at the appetizer table!
Oh how I love my Crock Pot. I’d make pot roast made with Coke.
Yum! It sounds like a lot of us are ready for cool fall weather and big batches of chili! If I win I’d love to make my white chicken chili for my family, and top it off with some delicious roasted hatch chilis! Thank you so much for the giveaway! π
Thai Chicken Thighs…so easy and so delicious!
http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/slow-cooker-thai-chicken/b8ad2965-9db0-48a1-af90-97341e6231fc
Pulled pork tacos, of course. OR Buffalo Chili! Yum!
Pot Roast Meal: 3 lbs. of a good meat to Pot Roast: I like Rump or you can use Bottom Round, London Broil or Shoulder. 8 fresh whole peeled carrots and 4 whole potatoes sliced in halves with their skins on; one medium onion diced, a minced clove of garlic, a tablespoon of horse radish, 1 cup of beef stock, 1/4 cup of a dark red wine, salt, pepper, a teaspoon of vegetable oil and 1/4 cup of cornstarch.
In a large frying pan on medium heat place the diced onions and oil and saute for a few minutes. Add the meat and sear on all sides until brown while sprinkling with salt and pepper. Place the browned meat with the browned onions into the slow cooker. Add the beef broth , wine, garlic, peeled carrots, potatoes. Add the horse radish to the top of the meat and rub it in. Cook on high for one hour or less and turn down to low for 5 to 6 hrs. Let meat cool for at least 15 to 20 minutes before slicing. Make a gravy with the cornstarch and the juices. Its nice with some peas and buscits.

I have been without a slow cooker for many years now. Since I have been taking care of my grandson Wyatt, doesn’t leave a lot of time for Granny to cook…Too Tired! So this would really come in handy! Wyatt is going to be 2 in November and for all of you Granny’s and momma’s, you know what I’m saying. π First dinner I would make would be a good ole roast w/carrots and tators, make gravy out of the liquid. We also love left over roast for good ole roast beef sandwiches!!! Roast is a comfort food, so reminds me of momma. I would be honored if I won the slow cooker…may make a better cook out of me yet…hubby would really like!!! π Yummmm…just in time for fall.
I have been dying to make bread in the slow cooker so that would be first for sure!!
I would absolutely prepare eggplant meatballs stuffed with mozerella. As always served with marinara sauce. Perfect for vegetarians. My kids don’t know there’s no meat involved. Lots of preparation before it hits the crock pot, but boy is it worth it!
On second thought, maybe I’ll make this!
blog.williams-sonoma.com/todays-recipe-slow-cooker-coq-au-vin/ π
Beef Roast with vegetables!
I would make chili verde with either chicken or pork – so many wonderful fresh ingredients available right now for this dish from tomatillos, peppers, onions and fresh garlic.

Good luck to everyone, sounds like there’s a bunch of good cooking going on! π
I would make chile and cowboy beans!!
I would love some slow cooked chili!
soups, sauce, pulled pork, easy chicken and hoping to find new recipes!
I live in Florida, but, born and raised in Mass. It’s still quite warm here and will be, probably, till Oct.-Nov. I love to make my Boston baked pork and beans, in the oven, but it’s way too hot to put the oven on, for that length of time, here on the nature coast. All my cooking is done in iron skillets, that are well seasoned (can fry an egg without sticking) and easy clean up. I would love to be able to make my Boston baked beans without heating up the whole house. I know this slow cooker would be the best for this family recipe!

I would love to win this so I could make a hearty chicken soup just love the smell in the house when that is cooking!
It has been quite some time since I cooked in a slow cooker, but I certainly know what my first recipe will be!!! Beef Stew!!
Here is the recipe I found on Spoonful.com:
2 large carrots, peeled and cut into Β½-inch chunks
1 medium onion, cut into Β½-inch chunks
1 stalk celery, cut into Β½-inch chunks
1 medium sized turnip, cut into Β½-inch chunks
6 baby red potatoes, cut into quarters
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 large bay leaves
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
2 pounds beef stew meat, cut into 2-inch chunks
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 14-ounce can crushed tomatoes
1 cup water
Layer the carrots, onion, celery, turnip, and potatoes in a 5-quart slow cooker.
Place flour in a large resealable plastic bag. Add stew meat; seal and toss to coat evenly.
In a large skillet, brown meat in oil in batches.
Once browned, place meat over the vegetables in the slow cooker.
Sprinkle salt and pepper over beef and veggies. Pour crushed tomatoes and water over top.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 1 Β½-2 hours or until meat and veggies are tender.
A nice roast with potatoes and carrots sounds good,…
Thank you for your great blog. Hope I win one of the slow cookers:)

Roasted Chicken with Rosemary, Kalamata olives and new potatoes

Venison Chili…we can’t ever get enough…SO YUMMY!
If I were to win one of the crock pots the first thing I would make would be pork and sour kraut in honor of my Dad and my Great Grandfather.

I would make 3 packet roast. I am recovering from my breast cancer treatment and a cockpot is wonderful for feeding my family when my energy is low.

I would make pot roast
Deer chili, definitely! I like to take it to office parties in the fall, where, oddly enough, many people had never tried venison, or were horrified at the thought of eating Bambi. Chili in a slow cooker is a natural match, though, as there’s plenty of time for the flavors to go *in* and any gaminess to go *out*! Using venison makes a low-flat, high-flavor version of chili that never leaves me with leftovers! The dial broke off my old Rival crockpot last year, so a shiny new All-Clad Slow Cooker would be ideal! π
I saw a recipe on Pinterest for rotisserie chicken….that’s what I would make! Thanks for the great giveaway!
Hi Laura – My friend was just talking about this slow cooker last night! The time for chili is just about here so I think that is what I would make first. With a teenage daughter, a pre-teen daughter, and a baby due in Oct, we would be putting this to great use. Have a great day!

This time of year, I love a hearty beef stew just like my dad used to make. Add a cast iron skillet of corn bread with apple cobbler & vanilla ice cream for dessert & I’m home again!

Thanks for opportunity!
first recipe? With 3 kids in sports after school, I have no choice….if I want a decent dinner on the table, it must come from my crock pot……but I don’t trust my crockpot, because even on low, it cooks too quickly. I leave the house at 7, and return 12 hours later with a hungry family. I need to trust my crockpot!!! I would make soup….vegetable, chili,…or beef stew, Mexican chicken….I have soma great recipes, it would be hard to choose. But I would use it….almost daily!!, Fingers crossed…

When I am working I use my slow cooker all the time!! Not only is everythiong ready for dinner when I get home, the house smells so inviting. With the fall coming and football season, the slow cooker will get a workout on weekends as well.
One of my absolute favorite slow cooker meals is pot roast. The beef and all the vegetables cook together making an amazing au jus melding all the flavors. I always make a larger amount than I need so that we have leftovers. There is nothing better than a pot roast sandwich with the au jus from the slow cooker and if that doesn’t finish it up, we love to have pot roast hash!
I would absolutely love to win this slow cooker!!

MMmmmm the first dish I would tackle with a cooker as sophisticated as this one would be an apple braised pork tenderloin in a cider bath. A celebration of fall! Fatten those hogs and pick them apples π I like a touch of heat in my braised pork, last time I used a bit of habenaro pepper… a little bit goes a long long way.
Beef stew loaded with vegetables…savory!
