Cooking Own Meals at the Motel

This week my spousal unit and I started experimenting with the crockpot to see what’s cheap, easy and will hit the spot for hearty meals after cold windy days.

I depart for SD in ten weeks and plan to fine tune the menu between now and then
 
I’ve done country style ribs in the crock pot with some success…dump a can of sweet sauerkraut (fennel) over the top, maybe some sliced apples, a bit of cinnamon…6-8 hours on warm or low…just the kraut works well…
 
You can throw chicken thighs, a can of chicken broth, celery, carrots, onion, stuff like that and just put it on low and just let it cook all day while you're hunting. You're hunting come back and and you just eat it with bread and butter and it's pretty dang good.

We were just talking about Filipino chicken last night. I wonder how it would taste with pheasant. Probably have to add a few chicken thighs for the fat.
 
One of my favorite crock pot meals is pork and sauerkraut. I made it last week with a tenderloin I had in the freezer. I prefer it over mashed potatoes but sometimes I'll throw potatoes in with it and make it a one pot meal.
 
Reading this thread makes me appreciate how lucky I am that I often hunt with an older fella that is a gourmet cook and loves to make breakfast and dinner. He plans the meals and cooks them and the rest of us clean up.
