Fresh Slowcooking FSC Recipes for beef

This seasonal dish combines acorn squash, clementines and pomegranate to create a scrumptious slow cooker dinner. The citrus flavour of the clementines infused the squash giving it a bright, slightly sweet taste, while the pomegranate juice gave the beef a delicate fruity flavour.

Mint is one of those herbs that grows like a weed and will take over your garden if you let it. Rather than letting it become a pest, I decided to add it to our spicy beef dinner to brighten it up.

Truly finger-licking good! These spicy ribs are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Just take a few minutes to make your own homemade BBQ sauce, pour it over some meaty beef ribs and let your slow cooker work its magic.

Packed with flavour from a rich stout beer, meat, thyme and of course carrots, potatoes and turnip, this stew is sure to satisfy everyone at your table this St.Patrick’s Day.

Beets, carrots and potatoes are the perfect accompaniment for a roast beef marinated in rosemary, garlic and oregano. A great use of winter vegetables to create an entire dinner in your slow cooker.

A delicious mix of sweet pineapple, peppers, and meatballs. (Okay, crumbly meat chunks…) Perfect for lettuce or tortilla wrapped sandwiches.

A fun Mexican meal that’s easy to prepare, tastes great and is perfect for feeding a hungry crowd — like a superbowl party ;)

Season the roast and let it simmer in your slow cooker all day with tomatoes, onions and jalapeños.

Looking for a delicious easy dinner where your entire dinner cooks in a single pot? This is the meal for you. Juicy roast beef warmed up with cumin and coriander, flavored with tomatoes and onions, and it comes with a side of perfectly cooked potatoes.

The blizzard outside makes me wish there was more of this Mexican mole beef left to have for dinner. The thick, spicy chocolate sauce coats the beef creating a warm and very satisfying meal. The flavour makes it easy to imagine that you’re sitting on a warm, sunny patio. My hubby raved that this is one of the best meals I’ve ever made!

I don’t know about all of you, but after enjoying holiday dinners and desserts I feel the need for a nutrient-packed, sugar-free meal. This slow cooker pomegranate beef is more than just nutritious, it’s delicious! The tomatoes and tangy pomegranate produce a delicate, almost creamy sauce, that made the beef really smooth — I’ll have to make this again before the pomegranates disappear for another year.

A classic combination of ribs, sausage, parsley, basil and tomatoes — comforting, satisfying and delicious. This is one of those meals that draws a crowd while the leftovers are in the microwave at work.

Most of you slow cookers out there have likely cooked a recipe from the ‘Crockpot Lady’s’ website and I am no exception. Her Mongolian Beef was the very first slow cooker meal I cooked in our shiny new slow cooker and we loved it. Meaty and satisfying, spicy but not too spicy. Making it again, a year later, the only changes I made were to add toasted sesame seeds and broccoli.

Do you ever just crave beef? I do. Luckily, these orange and ginger ribs hit the spot. The ginger made them a little spicy, while the orange marmalade added a touch of sweetness. Of course, you could eat these with a fork and knife, but they had us licking our fingers!
