Not really low carb is it?
I'm hearing a lot about these "slow cookers", i've never used one, wouldn't know where to begin........
Turn on, Throw food in, come back in 10 hours.
Gravy steak or gravy beef is a tough cut. It's for slow cooking and all that fat will render down to keep it moist.
I'll usually chunky dice it, brown it in a pan, throw in some veggies, a little flour to thicken the sauce as it cooks, tomato paste, red wine and a bit of water or beef stock to cover it. Cook for 4-8 hours in a slow cooker...delicious with a bit of mashed spud on a cold winter's night!
Or you can always get a slow cooker flavour sachet from the supermarket
Nope...only "problem" is when you get home and the house smells delicious!
Most of them are on a timer of sorts, so they'll cook for however long and then drop the temp to just keep it warm. Can't say I've heard of any catching on fire and they don't burn the food as there's plenty of moisture in the pot, the temp isn't high enough for it all to evaporate
I'm a qualified chef but got out of commercial cooking a long time agoI take it you do a bit of cooking? That sounds pretty tasty what you wrote above.
Rendering the fat, how good is that!
I'll do that all, minus the potato
