CROCK POT BEEF OR LAMB CASSEROLE



Crock Pot Beef or Lamb Casserole image

An economical meal for a family. Crock Pot/slow cookers are a winner in the heat of summer and great to put dinner on before going to work in the mornings. Who could beat a hearty casserole in winter either? You can use whatever veges that you have at hand. Use a gluten-free flour and stock if making this recipe gluten-free. Serve with toast, pasta or rice. I remember my mother making this casserole when I was a child. To make a richer gravy substitute 1 cup of red wine for 1 cup of stock. This is a great rustic dish- no need to be to accurate with your measurements or weights

CROCK POT BEEF CASSEROLE



Crock Pot Beef Casserole image

Easy crock pot recipe that makes tender, savory chunks of beef. Recipe was included in a book that came with my crock pot. You could probably add mushrooms too. The cook time is a guess-timation. The directions actually state to cook on "auto-shift" for 6-7 hours but not all crocks have the "auto-shift" option.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of meat: Chuck roast, short ribs, and lamb shoulder are all good choices for slow-cooked casseroles. These cuts are tough but become tender when cooked slowly in liquid.
  • Brown the meat before cooking: Browning the meat adds flavor and helps to seal in the juices. You can brown the meat in a skillet over medium-high heat or in the slow cooker on the high setting.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, color, and nutrients to the casserole. Some good choices include potatoes, carrots, onions, celery, and mushrooms.
  • Use a flavorful liquid: The liquid in the casserole helps to flavor the meat and vegetables. You can use water, broth, or even wine.
  • Season the casserole well: Salt, pepper, and garlic are essential seasonings for any casserole. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Cook the casserole on low heat: Slow cooking helps to tenderize the meat and vegetables and allows the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Crock-pot beef or lamb casseroles are a delicious and easy way to enjoy a home-cooked meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying casserole that your whole family will love.
