Another year round outdoor cook here. Really nice having a covered spot for grilling and Q.
However, there are some dishes that do well in the slow cooker. One of my favorites for bringing along to pot luck dinners is Santa Fe chicken.
2 cans of black beans (rinse and drain well)
2 cans of corn
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Large container of salsa
Shredded cheese
Place rinsed beans and corn in bottom of slow cooker
Place chicken on top
Cover chicken with salsa (want to make sure the chicken is covered or else it can dry out)
Cook on high for 3 hours
Remove chicken and shred
Return shredded chicken to cooker and top with cheese. Mix and serve! Easy, fairly inexpensive, and tasty.
Serve with tortillas or rice. Top with more salsa, fresh cilantro and some chopped scallions. YUM!
Have also made this in a Dutch oven with charcoal...it's quite versatile.
Other cold weather favorites.... Red cooked pork, beef stew with water chestnuts. Ugh...I can feel my waist expanding just thinking about this stuff!
