Easy One Pot Meal with BBQ Chicken
I forgot to take pictures but must tell you that experiment number two on my slow-cooking beanpot was a success!
However, I think I am learning that I prefer slow cooking and lower temperatures to get-it-done-faster and higher temps. But yesterday, we had errands to run and by the time I was back, with groceries put up and the oven warmed, it was mid-afternoon.
So I cooked it at 350 degrees for two hours. It was great, but not as tender as I would have liked. Today, I added bacon and mild cheddar cheese and warmed it up at 200-250 degrees and it was even better. We had sandwiches that were the absolute yummiest!
Didn't think of taking a picture of them, either, until I was halfway finished with mine.
Cleaning Up
I did have to run the hot water and let the beanpot soak while we ate because the I forgot cooking spray at the store and the butter just didn't work this time :).
However, it came right off and the pot is now resting comfortably in the dishwasher.
Tomorrow's Dinner
Tomorrow is cooking day for homeschooling and we picked mac and cheese. I haven't decided if I'm ready for that again so soon or would rather wait until next Friday. But an even more important question might be, do I have anything else?
I definitely don't feel like trekking back to the store just to make something different. So at this point, tomorrow's dinner is anybody's guess.
See you then!
