Cris here. Our friends at Gooseberry Patch sent us a couple copies of this new book and we put it to the test. We tried a variety of recipes including these 6 quick and easy crock pot recipes.

6 Quick and Easy Crock Pot Recipes from Gooseberry Patch's Busy-Day Slow Cooking!

First up, we tried Cooking Hot Dogs in Bulk and LOVED it. We even made a Hot Dog Bar using our 3 Pot Party Slow Cooker and our Chili Cheese Dog Recipe.

Cooking hot dogs in bulk is very easy in a Crock Pot. Learning how to use a slow cooker to steam hot dogs is a great tip for parties and potlucks.

We also tried the Crock Pot Polish Sausage Cabbage Soup which was unlike any soup we had ever had before! Definitely, a must try for folks that want to try something different.

Crock Pot Polish Sausage Cabbage Soup is a hearty soup recipe with a unique flavor!

Easy Crock Pot Cowboy Beans were simply perfection. They had that yummy familiar taste that you find at any respectable potluck ;).

These Easy Crock Pot Cowboy Beans are always a hit!

Crock Pot Hot Fudge Peanut Butter Cake was simply decadent. So good.

Crock Pot Hot Fudge Peanut Butter Cake is the perfect chocolate and peanut butter dessert. The result is much like a chocolate lava cake with an added layer of peanut butter chips to make it even more decadent.

Crock Pot Easy Italian Chicken was a spin on the Italian Pot Roast in the cookbook that we absolutely love. The chicken was amazing as well! Love getting two dish ideas out of this delicious recipe. Both are in our regular menu rotation.

Crock Pot Easy Italian Chicken is a filling, yet simple recipe that has a delicious rich flavor.

Crock Pot Under the Sea Dip is a fun party recipe for seafood loves. It is a great alternative to some of the typical dips you find at the party table.

Crock Pot Under the Sea Dip is a fantastic slow cooker seafood dip recipe.

  228. Cowboy Beans are always a major favorite here in Arizona.

    I think I have seen all of the videos Cris has done (masterfully directed from the back of the camera, I must add). Reminds me of the fun videos Alton Brown use to do on “Good Eats” (very entertaining). I know we have seen all your videos at least once and some multiple times for recipes we are making regularly to get the techniques down (especially the techniques of “How To Burn Yourself on a Crockpot” ;-). I am happy your wife bought you those heat resistant gloves. I use leather glove for my outdoor cast iron Dutch Ovens; saved me a lot of burns.

    You have a massive collection of crockpots, wow!! We have only three crockpots (2, 4, and 6 quarts). After watching your videos on the Ninja Crockpot; we are now saving our pennies to buy one. What a great machine, who needs a kitchen with one of these things!

    You may not always hear feedback from your fans, but we love you fine folks. Keep up the great work.

    God Bless,
    – Dave (6500 feet elevation back in the boonies, near Prescott, AZ)

  235. The Cowboy Beans sound perfectly delicious. I think this dish would appeal to everyone at my dinner table!

  423. I would like to try the Under the Sea dip! I love seafood and put together with cheese, yummy! I have tried the Sausage , cabbage and potatoes and it was a hit.

  428. I’m torn between the Polish. Sausage &Cabbage Soup and the Cowboy Beans

  430. I have had a hankerin for cabbage soup for some time now. Funny as I love raw cabbage but am not interested in cooked cabbage. I will be making ths soup soon. Happy tummy!

  431. Your list makes it so hard to decide. I find what I want, then something else pops up….. so I will go with Cowboy Beans. Camping over my lifetime, always looking for another mouth watering bean recipe, it’s got my vote.

  433. The Cowboy Beans ARE good, but Easy Italian Chicken has been looking yummy from the first time I saw it! This is coming up pretty soon too ’cause it’s worked it’s way to #3 from the top of my “to try” list. 🙂

  470. Cowboy Beans if I have to choose from these recipes. The next recipe I make from your site will be Cheese Lover’s Crock Pot Shells. I am thinking that this would be great with some Costco hot dogs on the grill – or even in the crockpot with the shells.
