Beef stew in a crockpot. Tell us your recipies please

[Kali]

12. my classic is beef dredged and browned in bacon grease

add onion, garlic, broth-bullion-water-stock-whatever liquid, and a can of diced tomato. when meat is close to tender add carrot coins and then diced potatoes. in a crock pot I think you need to cook the vegs the whole time. I can't remember because it tends to be a cold weather dish for me and I mostly use the crock pot in summer out on the porch to keep kitchen cooler.

of course other vegs in there are good too: celery, green beans, corn, mushrooms, etc but just potatoes and carrots are classic to me
