My crockpot has turned out some wonderful meals and was much appreciated
when I was working. Put the meat in the crockpot in the morning on low
and dinner was ready when I got up when I was on the night shift.
It's still much appreciated to plug it in and forget it and not have to
worry about checking if the flame is too high or do I need to add more liquid. Plus, it can turn a piece of shoe leather meat into fall apart tender and flavorful.
A ham in the crockpot is delicious, and the temperature is lower than the oven. It can stay in the pot longer with no loss of flavor. If you're cooking a large meal, the crockpot frees up the oven for other things.

I love my crock pot. The Hambeans (brand) 15 bean soup mix with added
diced ham turns out beautifully. No stirring and no checking the temperature. Set it on low and walk away. I cook lots of things in the crock pot. Chuck roast, yes, and corned beef brisket. I don't know why anyone would scoff at using a crock pot.

I don't scoff. I prefer to braise in the oven.

Crock pots are great, aren't they? I own three.

First time I cooked a corned beef brisket was in the Ninja Foodi pressure cooker for the amount of time called for according to the size of my brisket. Actually, my brisket was a tad smaller than in the recipe, but it turned
out a bit tough. The taste was great, but not at all tender. I've got
a brisket in the freezer from back in the winter and I've promised myself when this one is cooked it will go into the crockpot for a loooong, loooong time.

Corned beef brisket in the crock pot on low for hours, with a cup of
water and the seasoning packet (throw in a couple extra bay leaves)
comes out fork tender. If you want to add cabbage, cut one into
quarters and place the wedges on top for the last hour, pushing it down
into the liquid. Turns out beautifully!

I don't know what temperature you're supposed to cook a corned beef briskt but it should be kept below boiling. Most people keep it at a slow simmer. The
slow cooker is the easiest way to cook a brisket. One has to be mindful of what
cut you're getting. These days, it might not be a brisket in the bag.

I could be wrong, but I remember reading a crockpot on low, generally,
is cooking at about 190°F. Some models may go as high as 200°F on low.
I've got an instant read thermometer, I should check the temp next time
the slowcooker is quietly doing its' thing.

When you lift the lid, the temp will drop instantly, so your readings
will be a little low.

I haven't decided if it will be cooked for just sandwiches, but I do love cooked cabbage! The cabbage would really make it a full meal to be savored.

One thing that some folks don't know is not to cook dried
beans--*especially kidney beans*--in a slow cooker. You can get very sick. https://www.johnson.k-state.edu/programs/health-food-safety/newsletter-articles/agents-articles/do-not-cook-dry-beans-in-slow-cooker.html
I just had some refried beans, but they came out of the La Preferida
can, so they were thoroughly cooked.

I watched a saved a video of a Mexican, I'm assuming, woman giving all the do's and don'ts of cooking refried beans. The recipe sounded great and she was pleasant to listen to. If you're interested, I'll post the link here
as it's on my list of things to cook in the future.
At least when I do decide to try this recipe, I won't have to puree or
mash my beans into a paste. 🙁 I can have them as chunky as I like.

Yes, that's important. And maybe the AI of Jill's websites sucks. But,
in general, AI can be a great help and time saver. And it can even be creative!
There once was a woman named Jill,
Who looked at AI with a chill.
"It babbles," she said,
"And inside its metal head,
It lacks any wisdom or skill."
It writes with a mindless refrain,
A substitute void of a brain.
She’d rather rely on her wits and her pen,
And never consult it again.

My guess is that an AI search would be faster and more comprehensive than any
human searching for a job. You just have to know how to make the proper prompts.
Albuquerque is nice. We're planning on vacationing there within the next >>>> couple of years.
I have some land in NM that was given to me. Albuquerque might be just fine but
the area in Luna county sounds just alarming. It's the center of crime of NM,
maybe even the United States. What the heck is going on there? No need to answer
that one - it's always drugs and poverty.
That's chile pepper growing country. Do you lease it to Chile farmers?
It's just sitting there accruing taxes. My dad got a hot tip about a nuclear power plant being built there. Unfortunately, that never happened. Well, you win some, lose some.
