Try Pork and Saurkraut:
take pork but and place in crockpot with about 21-2 cups water, bay leaf, sage and black pepper.
Cook all day on low. About 30 minutes before eating drain and rinse saurkraut and put in crockpot replacing the lid. It's done when the saurkraut is warm.

The Crockpot is good for cooking any kind of roasts.
Beef chuck is particulary good. I add Campbells french onion soup and cook all day on low.

You can do chickens in it for chicken dishes. Just put the whole chicken in there with some water and cook all day on low. Bone and cut into pieces when done.
