Transfer the roast to a slow cooker. Add the onion, chile peppers, chili powder, cayenne pepper, hot pepper sauce and garlic powder. Add enough water to cover 1/3 of the roast. 3.

In a medium size saucepan, simmer meat balls slowly in sauce for 1- 2 hours or let it simmer in the Crock Pot for at least 4 hours so the sauce gets into the meatballs. I prefer longer, but each person's taste is different.

Meat will be very tender - can use a fork to pull apart.
I add liquid smoke to this on occasion to give a nice smokey taste. Use about 1- 2 Tbls.

4. Cook on low heat for about 6 hours. If feasible, stir about half way through cooking time.
Holy cow, Shadows! I am loving you! I said that I cook everything I can by using a crock pot as it is so hot here and you gave me all these glorious recipes! Got any for chicken as well or are you getting that later and I just need to be patient? I am also having to print all these you have given already! Yummy! I can't wait to make them all! Many thanks!

Here is an easy one for chicken to start:

In a large skillet, brown onion in butter and oil just until tender, then brown chicken parts and place all in a 6-quart crockpot.
Add remaining ingredients except heavy cream, flour and biscuits. Cook on high 2-1/2 to 3 hours, or on low 5 to 7 hours.
When chicken is done, remove pieces to plate and let cool, then debone. While chicken is cooling, mix flour and cream together, then stir into crockpot. Open biscuits and cut each biscuit into 4 pieces. Drop into crockpot and turn on high. These will need to cook about 30 minutes, until they are firm. Return chicken meat to crockpot after deboning and serve. You can use your own homemade biscuit recipe for canned if you prefer.
2 pounds chicken breast halves 1 tsp. dried oregano leaves crushed 1/2 tsp. seasoned salt 1/4 tsp. pepper 2 Tbsp. butter or margarine 1/4 cup water 3 Tbsp. lemon juice 2 cloves garlic (more or less to taste) minced 1 tsp. chicken bouillon granules 1 tsp. minced fresh parsley
Remove skin and excess fat from chicken; rinse and pat dry.
In small bowl, mix oregano, seasoned salt and pepper; rub into chicken, using all of the mixture. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown chicken in butter. Transfer chicken to a slow cooker.
Place water, lemon juice, garlic and bouillon granules in skillet. Stirring over medium heat, bring to a boil, loosening browned bits from bottom of skillet. Pour over chicken.
Cover and cook on high for 2-1/2 to 3 hours or on low for 5 to 6 hours or until chicken is almost tender.
Add parsley and baste chicken. Cover and cook on high for 15 to 30 minutes or until chicken is tender and juices from chicken run clear when cut along bone in thickest portion.
