This will be going out to Goddess of Fire in the next few days. The meat recipe I included can be made in a dutch oven or a slowcooker. I've had it both ways and both are tasty. I also included salad and desert recipes for what is a meal without a salad and/or desert?
Apologies to those I might offend but my handwriting/printing is atrocious so I typed and scanned the recipes. Writing by hand aggravates my CTS.

No problem. I'm happy to have the recipes in either form. I can't wait to get them!
Thanks very much to all who've participated so far.
Ps: What's a dutch oven?

This came last week, sorry I haven't journaled it before now.
Thanks!
Thanks!
This much awaited slow cooker recipe book arrived a day or two ago, while I was still off adventuring in Utah. I was happy to receive it.
I added two of my favorites last night. Both came from a cookbook I received as a wedding gift thirty-one years ago....These recipes have stood the test of time!
I'll send an e-mail off to our next participant today and obtain her address asap so that I can get this book back on the road.

Sorry for the delay in journalling. I plan to write in my recipies this weekend and get it moving on Monday to the next book ring member
Arrived safely today! I'm moving into my new home over the weekend so there may be a slight delay, but I'll get my contribution put in and this moved along ASAP. (I'm very excited about trying some of the recipes on here, especially the fisherman's chowder!)
OMG, I am SO sorry!! This got put in a big pile of "things to deal with" in the middle of a very crazy move and I just found it again. My apologies for holding this so long! I've added my contributions and will PM next in line right now.
FINALLY sending this out to the next in line. I'm so ashamed to have taken so long!
Before this gets journaled by the next BCer, I wanted to share two recipes i've tried recently:
I tried a new recipe since I passed on the journal and I thought I'd share it with you. Came out FAB. Chicken Taco Soup.
Made it as listed except I only used half an onion (I don't like them much) and added some chipotle powder (can you get that out your way?) for spice. It was a huge hit at my last work potluck and reheats really well.
Also, a super easy pulled-pork BBQ:
Put pork butt in crock pot. Add 12 or so oz root beer or Dr. Pepper. Cook on low 6 hours. Pour off fat and tonic (pop/soda/whatever you call it). Shred pork. Add bottle of your fave BBQ sauce, stir, cook another hour or so. Serve with tart cole slaw on toasted buns. (I used a sweet, creamy root beer (vs the kind that has a bite to it; A&W would be fine) and used a spicy BBQ sauce. You don't taste the soda much at all -- it really just keeps it moist -- so I added a splash of root beer back in with the BBQ sauce for the last hour to balance the spice. I prepped the butt with a dry rub, but I don't think I needed to. When I make it again for an upcoming football party I won't bother.)
Enjoy!!
NOTE: Non-Americans can check out this site for information on pork butt, which is actually pork shoulder, because we Americans are a little nutty.

I received this from Firegirl shortly after she sent it. I'm sorry I've taken so long to journal it. (Busy time of year!) I will try and go through it and write in some recipes tomorrow while the turkey is cooking :) PMing the next in line.
sending to katfinnegan today.
excellent recipes! will pass along.

Book is on it's way to Cheli-garza today.
This totally came as a surprise to me. It's my turn so soon? Agh! It's been a while since I've even turned on my slowcooker (or my stove). Hopefully they still work. :) I'll be going through my cookbooks and recipe collections to see if I can find a few suitable recipes to share. Thanks for letting me take part!
BTW, Cinderess, I think a Dutch oven is a nice oval pot with a lid that goes in the oven. You can also use it to make a stew or such over a campfire. Then again, I could be wrong... :)
4/27/2010- LilacWhisper isn't able to participate in this at the time, so I'm contacting Wandering-B for an address.

Journal Entry 26 by CITIBELLE at Symonds Yat , Herefordshire United Kingdom on Friday, August 20, 2010
This book was a great idea, sorry to have kept it so long cinderess. It certainly has been useful to me as moved house and it has taken me a month to get new cooker installed so having been relying on my crockpot. Posted on its way first class today.
Wow! What a fabulous package to arrive home from holiday with! The recipes look great_ I shall certainly have a go at some of them before jotting in a few of my own>
Thanks Citibelle for posting and Thanks Cinderess for hosting ( ooh im a poet and didn't know it!!)

I was so pleased to see this today (it did come Saturday WW but I was at a Bookcrossing meet in Salcey, Northants so it was kept in the sorting office) it's great that my recipe folder has travelled so far and come home. Especially as it has soooo many great recipes in it! I look forward to using them.
A BIG THANK YOU to everyone for sharing these, and also for the cards - Wandering B, Elle and Waderwoman (I loved the popping candy. It's already gone!)

Journal Entry 31 by Cinderess at Exchange/Trade, A Bookcrossing member -- Controlled Releases on Monday, November 1, 2010
I made Waderwoman's Red Hot Beef last night. It was delicious and the consensus was that it should made again. Here is a steaming hot picture of it.
Journal Entry 32 by Cinderess at Exchange/Trade, A Bookcrossing member -- Controlled Releases on Saturday, November 20, 2010
I made the Chinese Chicken and Mushroom recipe too a few weeks ago (another of Waderwoman's.) It was good.

I tried Wandering-B's baked potato in the SC yesterday, it really works! It's not as nice as oven cooked but definitely worth remembering.
NB: you prick a/some baking potato(s) and wrap in foil and put in the slow cooker. 7-8 hours on slow depending on size.
