Steps:
- In a skillet heat 1 tbsp of the oil over med-high heat. Add beef and cook until browned through. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to the slow cooker. Drain the liquid from the pan. Reduce the heat to med. Add the remaining oil to the pan. Add onions and celery, and cook until well softened. Add garlic, salt, thyme, and peppercorns stirring for 1 minute. Stir in tomato soup, stock, and Worcestershire sauce. Transfer to slow cooker, add rigatoni and stir well.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or cook on high for 4 hours until very hot and bubbly. Stir in the cheese and cook on high for another 20 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
Tips:
- Use a slow cooker liner: This will make cleanup a breeze. Just lift the liner out of the slow cooker and throw it away.
- Brown the meat before adding it to the slow cooker: This will help to develop the flavor of the meat and prevent it from becoming dry.
- Add vegetables to the slow cooker: Vegetables will help to add flavor and nutrients to the dish. Some good vegetables to add include onions, carrots, celery, and bell peppers.
- Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what will really make your crock pot rigatoni shine. Be sure to use a sauce that you love the taste of.
- Cook the pasta separately: This will prevent the pasta from becoming mushy. Cook the pasta according to the package directions and then add it to the slow cooker with the sauce and meat.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs will add a pop of flavor and color to your dish. Some good herbs to use include basil, parsley, and oregano.
