Crock Pot - Pot Roast

0 Upvotes

Hi all,

Yesterday I made a Pot Roast in a Crock Pot. On high for 4-5 hours, then low for a few more. I took the Ceramic out of the base and let it cool for maybe an hour or so? Then I put the entire Ceramic (still quite warm) right into the fridge.

I am now paranoid that the roast is bad and don't know what to do. I have a large sub zero fridge, so I am wondering if I am in the clear?

TIA!

First time making pulled pork, and I added some mushroom powder from mushrooms I foraged myself. Absolutely delicious!

Recipes that freeze well for a busy mom (not me)

42 Upvotes

Hey all! So ive got a friend who is very pregnant and im planning to make a bunch of meals to freeze in souper cubes and deliver to her either right before or right after the birth, to make an obviously difficult time a little easier. So my questions are as follows:

1) any recipes that freeze really well? Im thinking like pot roast, chili, stew type stuff but any other ideas?

2) anyone who's been pregnant/had kids- would it be easier to have full meals that are frozen, or should I also do ingredients (just meat or veg) so she can add whatever carbs she likes? Im thinking its easier for her to just microwave a cube, but she also has a 4yo so I want to accommodate whatever pickiness is going on there lmao. Any feedback from parents would be awesome
