Summary: Great reference for the crockpot enthusiast
Comment: If you think that crockpots are basically for some sort of variation on stew and that is pretty much it then you will be surprised by the variety included in this book. Although I enjoy cooking, I use a crockpot about every six months and then it is for pretty much similar recipes. "The Complete Crockpot Cookbook" has opened my eyes to the possibilities of this piece of cooking equipment. Of course it has the expected wide variety of soups, stews, beans, chowders, and chilis (with a great Tex-Mex chili recipe). From there it moves on to the unexpected recipes like Chicken Pattow, Beef Roast with Onion-Mushroom Gravy, Swiss Steak, Barbequed Ribs, Pork Chops, Meatloaf, and many others. When appropriate a quick tip ("Cook's Note") is included at the end of many of the recipes to help make sure it comes out like it should. There are also short "A Tip From the Kitchen" sections scattered through out the book. These contain suggestions and short pieces of general information not specifically related to a specific recipe. It is a surprising collection of recipes that will please anyone looking for new ways to use their crockpot for some delicious meals. "The Complete Crockpot Cookbook" is a highly recommended read.

Summary: More help for the clueless Dad
Comment: I just finished writing a review for the Rush Hour Cook's Weekly Wonders by Brook Noel, who is actually, Wendy Louises' daughter. My friend saw the two do a cooking demo at a packed stage at Taste of Home. He bought autographed copies of both books for me. I am in charge the dinner hour in our home. I work first shift, so much to my wife's dismay, I get to handle the dinner duties. While I'll admit I am not a gourmet cook (okay, macaroni is tough) I have been getting the "thumbs up" as of late by cooking with these books. What I love about Wendy's book is that these meals are SO SIMPLE yet so mouth-watering-good. I had tried another well-known slow cooker cookbook and was very disappointed with the results. I was a bit nervous about trying again, but courage prevailed. I'm glad it did as is everyone at our dinner table. I read the other reviews before posting mine and saw comments about about the print quality. Like other readers, my book was absolutely fine. Very odd. I agree too that the large font and one recipes per page is an added bonus to the nice layout and design of this book.

Summary: Good book
Comment: This is a great book for someone who isn't looking for weird recipes. It doesn't use things that you have never heard of before, or that you have to drive an hour to find. Quick to read, easy to make, great to eat. Now you can make more than just pot roast and potatoes.
