Things are still a little ‘slow’ in the world of the Slow Cooker challenge, however, three generous bloggers have slowly and lovingly cooked some melt in the mouth treats for the Slow Cooker Challenge Round Up, September 2014.
Dear Dominic of Belleau Kitchen, was determined that he was going to enter my challenge, even though he does not own an electric slow cooker. His dogged determination paid off and I’ve decided to change the rules from now on to include any slow-cooked meal, not just those cooked in a gadget for the purpose.
And so I present to you Dom’s Slow Roast Chicken Thighs with Plums, Carrots, Potatoes, Garlic and Celery
Brisket is one of my favourite cuts of beef and I know that it is also one that Karen of Lavender and Lovage likes to cook with too. It’s ideally suited for slow cooking and Karen has make a fabulous one pot meal in her Crockpot: Slow Cooked Brisket with Elderberry Glaze and Port Jus
Lucy of Baking Queen74 joined in with a great week night supper dish, ideal when running around delivering children to various activities. This Slow Cooker Pork Leek and Apple Casserole will be piping hot and ready to eat at the end of a busy day.
Thanks so much to all three for entering. The new challenge will be launched on 1st October welcoming entries from any meals cooked slowly whether in a Slow Cooker, Crockpot or any other method. In the meantime check out the back list of round ups for some great slow cooked recipes.

Janice Pattie says
Lovely to have you with us.
Jane Willis says
Ha! You've changed the rules JUST as I was about to be able to start entering the original way! Have just this week traded up my rubbishy slow cooker that burned everything for a decent one and am looking forward to a winter of warming slow cooked treats.
Janice Pattie says
Aw Jane, glad you have got a new slow cooker, you won't regret it!
Lucy @ BakingQueen74 says
I love that the rules have changed, the other entries look amazing, so pleased to have my simple casserole on here too 🙂
Janice Pattie says
Thanks Lucy, you have been great at entering and I look forward to seeing your recipes in the challenge.
Sylvia F. says
Great round up! I don't have a slow cooker yet but planning to buy one some day 🙂
Janice Pattie says
Now you don't need to buy one, because you can enter with any slow cooked dish.
Jacqueline Meldrum says

Thanks Jac
Bintu @ Recipes From A Pantry says
Your round up shows that I need to use my slow cooker a lot more.
Janice Pattie says
Yes, indeed it's time to get those comfort food stews and casseroles going.
Nazima Pathan says
love slow cooked meat though I do not have a slow cooker but these look fantastic.
Janice Pattie says
Thanks Nazima, you don't need a slow cooker to enter now, any kind of slowly cooked dish will do.
