I got a little single-serving crock pot on Black Friday, so I’m curious what your favorite things to make in one are.

    I don’t have exact measurements or anything but this is how I make pot roast stew:

    Braise your pot roast to give it a crust and get some fond. Put it in the pot.

    Deglaze the fond with about a cup of whatever liquid you want and pour it into the pot. I don’t go out to buy things other than the meat for this (I make it when it’s cold and I have vegetables that need to be used before they go bad), so if I have a red wine I’ll use that, if I just have stock I’ll use that, and if I don’t have either, just water is fine. The wine is best, though.

    Toss in a couple potatoes, diced. Or use those little ones. I like those just because they can be tossed in whole.

    1 medium onion, peeled. Doesn’t need to be chopped.

    Bag of baby carrots.

    Chopped celery.

    Salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and MSG.

    Turn that sucker on and wait 6-8 hours. Stir it all up into a paste before serving because it’ll be soft as hell and everything in there just melts.
