I’m a big fan of using my slow cooker. I actually have a *multicooker now and so I can use it as a slow cooker, a pressure cooker, to make rice and much more. Today I want to share with you my top 5 slow cooker dishes based on traffic so far this year! I hope you’ll enjoy making these recipes yourself – especially as they are so simple! I love to browse recipe books for inspiration and there are a wide variety of discount slow cooker recipe books available at The Works.
Recently I sent my lovely husband out shopping for me and he came home with a great, frugal pork leg joint. At just £2.99 a kilo our 1.5kg joint was an absolute bargain! I decided that instead of the traditional roast pork I was going to finally have a go at making slow cooker pulled pork – to see what all the fuss is about! Scroll down now to see the recipe for yourself! If you’re looking for some inspiration for other slow cooker recipes then be sure to check out my Easy slow cooker recipes (UK recipes).
Now I know, I know, is it really a roast beef IF it’s not been cooked in the oven? Slow cooker pot roast, slow cooker beef joint, whatever you want to call it, this is the recipe for you! It’s VERY simple to prepare, tastes delicious and makes a hearty Sunday roast for the whole family. Best of all you can cook a variety of veg in the same pot as this beef pot roast and cut down the time you spend in the kitchen.
Using my slow cooker definitely helps me to feel like I am winning at life. If we are having a super busy day I am just able to sit down, at 5pm, with my family, knowing that the slow cooker has taken care of everything. Today I want to share with you my slow cooker gammon joint with balsamic & orange glaze. If you want to get right to it then skip to the end of this post for the full recipe card.

In our home, we are partial to a takeaway or two! This has led to quite a large amount of money spend in recent years and we are working to cut this down now. I’ve been testing out lots of takeaway style recipes in my slow cooker recently and this slow cooker BBQ ribs recipe has become a new family favourite!
