geordiegirl Jan 2018 10:45am, 6 Jan 2018 8,117 posts	0 geordiegirl Our slow cooker is very much under utilised and I am going to rectify that this year, it is such an amazing tool to ensure you have a meal ready when you're ready for it. When I'm in super organised mode I will often cook one meal while prepping another for the slow cooker which we then switch on when we leave for work. For Christmas day we did a joint of brisket to supplement the chicken (sacked off the turkey) and it was simply delicious. The left overs we shredded down and added it to the gravy for a gorgeous hot beef sandwich. My brother gave me some recipes for slow cooker ideas. I don't know if I can attach any copies but if you're interested drop me an fmail with your email address and I'll attempt to forward it to you. It has things in like massaman curry, beef and bacon chilli, chinese beef, veggie stew, and many more. All mega easy to do, only one that I felt didnt work as well was honey garlic turkey but don't know if it was on too long as it felt a bit dry... So for the chicken/turkey dishes I'd probably not put it on as early.
