Does a Bigass electric roaster count as a Crockpot?
I haven't tried the recipe yet; I just saw it in the Star Tribune and saved it:
American Legion Funeral Hot Dish(Colette Flynn, owner of Catered by Colette in St. Louis Park, MN)
5 lbs. ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
1 (16-oz.) bag frozen sliced carrots
1 (16-oz.) bag frozen cauliflower florets
1 (16-oz.) bag frozen chopped broccoli
1 (50-oz.) can of cream of mushroom soup
1 (50-oz.) can cream of chicken soup
1 bunch celery, chopped
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tsp. white pepper
3 (12-oz.) bags chow mein noodles
Fry hamburger and chopped onion in a large cast-iron pan, breaking it up into small pieces with a potato masher. Place in a large roaster. Mix frozen vegetables, soups, chopped celery, soy sauce, and pepper in a bowl. Pour into roaster and blend with meat. Fold in two bags of chow mein noodles, cover, and bake at 325 degrees for 75 minutes. Remove from oven. Sprinkle remaining bag of chow mein noodles on top. Put cover back on and bake another 15 minutes. Serves 50.
