The: I'm broke and prefer to smoke but gotta eat on the cheap crock pot thread

Biscuit dough brah

 

The wife makes a killer southwest style chili, but it's not in the crockpot...

The recipe is yours, if you want it...

 

Thats what my mom and her mom use so i would say so... Ive also used pie crust, like the kind you buy and just unroll (not in a can)

 

dutch oven and kingsford coals....just saying

what is off about it? my wife makes a killer chicken and dumpling.

My wifes chili recipe is quite good if you want a copy let me know...

 

Crock pot carnitas tacos:

1 pork shoulder or butt roast

3 cans beer 2 c water

½ bunch cilantro chopped

1tbs salt

1 tbs cumin

1 large onion chopped into about 8 hunks

Dump it all in and cook in crock pot on low all day or high for an hour and low for 6 hours

Optional take out and brown in over on 350 for 30 minutes

Serve with chopped onions, tortillas, salsa, guac and other half chopped cilantro and or whatever else you like on tacos

 

Is it posted in here?

Yeah, good idea.

That is the thing about her C&Ds. The dumplings don't really work well. She does them from scratch. Maybe I'll tell her about Yota's method using bread dough.

Would love it! Thanks.

It is the dumpling part that never seems to work. I think she has made it about 3 times and it always seems to miss in the dumpling dept.

 

hmm I'll have to ask my wife how she makes them. They usually are similar to a bisquit but about the size of a meat ball.

 

Hers just kind of flop. They always just turn into a mushy mess. The kids ask "what is that?" with a strange look in their eyes.

 

I know my wifes is similar to this.

the trick is not to under or over mix/knead it and not to stir the dumplings.

 

I think that is maybe where she is making the mistake.
The recipes under that dumpling recipe look good too.
Thanks for that link.

 

And roll em thin cuz just like ball park Franks, they plump when u cook em

 

I know my wife just rolls the dumpling over rather than stirring about half way through.

 

I think my wife uses a small melon scoop or something similar. She doesnt write down a lot of this stuff, just wings it and usually stuff comes out really good.

 

Any pics?

 

Pics or it didn’t happen!

How did you brown it without it falling apart? My crockpot experience says it falls apart...
