Recipe and a clicky poll!
I made this for dinner last night, and it was amazing. I substituted 2 1/2 lbs ground turkey for the beef, but otherwise I stuck to the recipe and it was delicious.
So my question: How much of your cooking do you do in the crock pot? Because I definitely fall in the 90-100% range.

Re: Recipe and a clicky poll!
Pretty much everything we eat for dinner can't be made in a crock pot. I mainly just use mine when we have church dinners and such.
I've tried cooking overnight, but the smell always keeps waking me up!
And apparently I am a culinarily-challenged freak who relies far too much on her crock pot... Haha.
I will be using ours a lot more now that DH and I both have jobs with more normal hours. I am going to be too exhausted to cook a full meal when I get home from my new job.
I can't wait to use the crockpot recipe book I got for my bridal shower!!
I can't help you with the fear of fire (I just make sure that mine's not touching anything and that there's a good amount of space on all sides), but you can get an outlet timer that will automatically turn the power on and off at certain times. They sell them for "burglar lights" and things like that.
I use one with our non-timer crockpot sometimes. I like to bake potatoes in the crock, but they only need to be on high for a couple of hours, so I put the pot on high and plug it into the set timer. The timer only lets the electricity through to the pot a couple of hours before I get home. Obviously this would not work for foods like chicken, which would spoil.
