Aurand posted:Is there anything else I can do to remove some of the excess greasiness that I'm thinking is going to be there as the result of fat melting? Or do I just pour off the liquid and remove the fat that way? You pull the hunk of meat out of the liquid to shred it. The meat itself doesn't end up very greasy at all. I just discard all the liquid/fat.

Chromatose posted:I'm having a difficult time tracking down Boston butts in any of the local grocery stores, but I can typically find piles of Picnic hams. Would a picnic ham work just as well for this? No, cured ham and fresh pork are not even remotely the same. Use pork shoulder.

bunnielab posted:This is blasphemy I know, but I was underwhelmed by the pulled pork. It was amazing how well the texture came out but the brown suger left it way way too sweet. Almost repulsively so. It was still good but needed a ton of vinegar sauce to make it so. How much sugar did you use? I don't measure, but I probably use no more than a half cup (packed) for a ~4 lb shoulder.

MsJoelBoxer posted:Anybody ever tried making a cake in a crock pot? Clean Eating Magazine has a crock pot carrot cake recipe in this month's issue. It's piqued my interest, but I'm just wondering if there is some benefit to slow cooking it rather than just tossing it in my oven. Thoughts? I made one of those chocolate pudding cake things in the crockpot once. It worked, I mean, the cake was cakey and firm and the bottom was all saucy and puddingy. But I'm not posting the recipe because it tasted pretty crappy. I personally wouldn't make a regular cake in a crockpot unless your oven doesn't work or something. It makes more sense to do the "makes it own sauce on the bottom" recipes I think.

Counselor Sugarbutt posted:Glad it came out well! Sauteed onions...yum... If that's the case, then you're used to some horrible, mushy noodles in your mac and cheese. Hint: That's not the way they're supposed to be.

Counselor Sugarbutt posted:Have you actually tried cooking pasta in the slow cooker? Please try it first and then get back to me, Crusty Nutsack. Otherwise, you are criticizing something you know nothing about. Have you ever tried eating pasta that wasn't complete mush? Somehow, I doubt it, Sugarbutt. Please, try cooking a pasta al dente, then get back to me. Or you know, gently caress off because you're being pretty stupid that would work too

FuriousxGeorge posted:I've made this Hamilton Beach Slow Cooker Mac and Cheese recipe before, it was pretty drat good. Mac and Cheese recipes seem to be available from a lot of the companies that make these things, it's not that crazy an idea even if other methods are better. No one said it was crazy, we just said it sucked.

Lackadaisical posted:Is there a good place to get a lot of yummy but incredibly healthy slow cooker recipes? I already know the salsa chicken but I was hoping for more. A lot of the stuff posted in this thread sounds great, but isn't exactly the most conducive to weight-loss... That's because the thing the crockpot is best at is braising tough cuts of meat, and that usually means fat. If you're doing some crazy no-fat diet then you shouldn't be using your crockpot anyway.

Anne Whateley posted:pot roast, Tough, sometimes with a good bit of fat Anne Whateley posted:pork shoulder, Fatty Anne Whateley posted:or turkey breast. I'm talking about things that SHOULD go in a crock pot. Lean poultry is not one of those things. She wanted "healthy" recipes (which I assumed to mean non-fat based on her liking the salsa chicken breasts) and apparently the pulled pork and pot roast things in this thread aren't cutting it for her. edit: I am not saying these things are not healthy, only that apparently she doesn't think so.

Anne Whateley posted:Before you cook it read my edit I was too late on: edit: I am not saying these things are not healthy, only that apparently she doesn't think so. And no poo poo these cuts of meat are tough before cooking, that was my point. Those are what the crockpot is BEST at, and apparently those things weren't "healthy" enough for her.
