A 78-Year-Old Farm Cook Shares 10 MORE Slow Cooker Dinners Nobody Told Seniors

🍲 Ten more farm suppers from my mother's kitchen — all of them in a slow cooker. My name is Verna Prewitt. I'm seventy-eight, raised in the Arkansas Ozarks, and I learned every one of these watching my mother Ada work a woodstove from breakfast until dark. I've been making the same suppers in a slow cooker since about 1974. These are ten more, and not one of them repeats what I gave you before. Every recipe is written out below with every amount and every hour — nothing to scribble down. ✍️ 🔥 The three rules that run through all ten: • Hard things go on the bottom. • Tender things go in last. • The lid stays shut. ⚠️ *And the ones that matter most:* • Meat never goes in frozen. • Ground meat to 160°F. Chicken to 165°F. Whole pork to 145°F with a short rest. • The pot must be at least ½ and no more than ⅔ full, or it never heats right. • If the power goes out while nobody is home, the food gets thrown out — even if it looks done. • Leftovers to the fridge within 2 hours, and never reheated in the slow cooker. 🥄 *What's in this one:* 1️⃣ Beef tips and gravy over rice 2️⃣ Porcupine meatballs 🦔 (the rice cooks right inside them) 3️⃣ Ham, green beans and new potatoes 4️⃣ Country-style ribs 5️⃣ Chicken noodle soup 6️⃣ Sloppy joes for the ballgame crowd ⚡ (the one with the hardest rule on the list) 7️⃣ Scalloped potatoes and ham 8️⃣ Creamed chicken over biscuits 9️⃣ Rice pudding 🔟 The church kettle stew 🖤 — the black kettle in the churchyard every October 💬 Tell me down in the comments which one you're making first, and whose kitchen you first ate it in. Her name, and what part of the country she cooked in. I read every one of them, and whatever comes up the most is the one I make next. 🔔 Subscribe if this is the kind of cooking you want more of.
