    Same concept as cooking meals for one or two people using a loaf pan but
    this is using a slow cooker and only three main ingredients:

    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.

    Crock pots are great, aren't they? I own three. The little one
    gets used most often. Aside from actual cooking, I use the little
    one just to heat soup -- I don't have to stir, and it's piping
    hot when I get to my lunch break.

    I'm doing that right now, in fact. I have Progresso lentil soup
    heating, and in another thirty minutes or so, I'll add a little
    extra seasoning and have a nice lunch of lentil soup and bread.

    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.

    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.

    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

    When you lift the lid, the temp will drop instantly, so your readings

    Anything below 212 degrees sounds about right. My old slow cooker had a low, med,
    and high, setting that was below that. I dumped it not because it didn't work but
    because I wanted a more compact, and versatile, unit. A multi cooker sure fits the bill.

    Yes, I always found it annoying when people want to jerk the lid off the

    I cook beans often, but eat beans even more often. I know how to cook
    them. For dried ones, I put beans and water into a 4 cup Pyrex measuring
    cup, then put the cup into the multicooker in about an inch of water.
    For pintos, an hour. For black beans an hour and a half. The pintos are
    good smooth or "chunky," but I puree the shit out of the black beans
    every time. Then I fry them with animal fat if I have it, or sunflower
    oil if I don't.

    The La Preferida "Authentic" variety refried pintos are excellent.
    Nothing but beans, lard and salt. Almost every other brand is crappy by comparison. They're ordinarily almost twice the price of other brands,
    but one supermarket ran them on sale for 99¢, so I bought about 30 cans.

    Sheldon used to say that canned beans were a lot better than cooking
    them from dried. He was wrong. There's actually not much difference
    other than dried are less expensive, but more work, and with refried
    beans, most of the work is in frying. I'll spend 12, 15 or more minutes
    at the stove.

    AI sucks. I am looking for a job (part time, to keep busy and
    supplement my income). Job search engines these days use AI and the algorithms suck. I'm looking for a specific type of work in a specific
    area and I get emails about telling me there are openings for dentists
    in New Mexico. I'm a little too old to go to dental school and I have

    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.

    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.

    Tojo, yoose could sell that tiny patch of dessert scrub land to a
    Hiwayan. Yoose could tell them that it is in the same state as las
    vegas. Da Hiwayan would immediately ejaculate and start shoving cash in
    yoose face to buy yoose property!

    Uncle, I used to think yoose were a smart asian man.

    Was I wrong?

    I heard Trump was changing the name
    of New Mexico to fix it up a bit.

    The place is called "The Land of Enchantment" but it seems a bit dry, dusty, and dangerous to me. Changing the name of the state to "New America" might
    seem like a brilliant idea to some people - people that smoke a lot of crack, for instance.
