Slow Cooking All Year Round

By 79 Comments

I am often asked what I would recommend as a good Slow Cooking cookbook. I have written before about my 3 favorite cookbooks, but today I thought I would share a bit more in depth about my very favorite cookbook, Gooseberry Patch’s Slow Cooking All Year ‘Round.

Gooseberry Patch CookbookReaders from our sister site, GOODEness Gracious, are very familiar with my love for Gooseberry Patch Cookbooks in general. I have adored their cookbooks for years and years. I love that they collect the best recipes from home cooks all over the country.

I often say they are like that really good church cookbook… ya know the one that has Aunt Sally’s tried and true meatloaf recipe alongside that fantastic breakfast casserole from sunrise service and the pastor’s wife’s prize winning blueberry pie recipe.  Those are the kind of down home recipes you will find in a Gooseberry Patch Cookbook and I for one, can’t get enough of them!

Truth be told, I have more of their collectable collections from across the nation than I can count, so it is saying a LOT that I now count Slow Cooking All Year ‘Round as not only my favorite slow cooker cookbook, but my favorite Gooseberry Patch Cookbook as well.

I first got to really know this gem about a year ago during my Crock Pot Week. There were so many really, REALLY great recipes dripping from every page.

Crock Pot BBQ Chicken Legs

Recipes like these ah-mazing Crock Pot BBQ Chicken Legs and these crowd pleasing French Onion Meatballs that taste a little bit like White Castles.

And this deliciously rich and creamy Crab Rangoon Dip…

One of the many reasons I love Slow Cooking All Year ‘Round is that there is such a variety of recipes… like this Chocolate Lava Cake… oh yes.

Crock Pot Chocolate Lava Cake

You will find slow cooker recipes for Fall, Winter , Spring AND Summer. Including great holiday and potluck recipes like this Crock Pot Corn Casserole.

There are party foods (like the Sticks and Stones below), hearty foods and foods for breakfast. You will find sweet and savory.

BBQ Weenies Meatballs

You will find homemade sauces (like the Pumpkin Butter below) and condiments, dips, beverages, desserts, soups and stews all along side main dishes made of beef, poultry and pork.

Slow Cooker Pumpkin Butter

If you are frustrated that the only slow cooker recipes you can find are filled with cans of cream soups, this is a great book to broaden your crock pot recipe repertoire.

(And don’t worry, there are cream soup recipes in there too 😉 along with classic recipes you’d expect to find like the Slow Cooker Pot Roast above.

    My favorite is Italian Vegetable Soup, slow-simmered in my crock pot. Makes the whole house smell wonderful on a chilly day!

    My husband makes the most amazing meal in the crockpot. He just throws in a medium (not too pricy, not too cheap) chunk of beef (whatever he can get on sale), carrots, onions, and potatoes. It makes the most amazing “au jus” with it. I imagine mushrooms would be a good addition too … even if added near the end.

    There are too many to pick one favorite. I love cooking chicken, pot roast, vegetable soup in the crock pot. I’ve only just started making some desserts, so I don’t have a favorite yet! Love, love, love using my crock pot!
