[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 433436, member: 1991"] I miss the summer heat. I'm jealous of you all. The lamb went down well, we have enough left over for dinner tomorrow night too. It was very tasty, and a lot more of it than I thought. But it might be the last time I use the crockpot - it just didn't cook it in the time allowed, it needed twice as long. I had left it on all day, from 10 am to 6 pm, some of that time on high. Then we left it on for another four hours and the meat was still not cooked. So we left it on overnight and into next morning - then it was done enough. I let it cool (while I went out to the specialist - we don't heat our house in winter, so it chilled off well in the kitchen) then I put it in the fridge. I got it out tonight, put it into a large pot on the stove and the final simmer did the trick, I was at last able to get the meat off the bones. Still in huge chunks, but that was what I wanted. All that cooking and it still had not turned to mush! Thank goodness! But a lovely warm one pot casserole - just what we need on a cold rainy winter's night. difficult child 3 liked it too, even though I had put in a lot of vegetables that he normally won't eat.
