🔗 These were fixin to be lost, so I set em down. All of em plus much more. Get em before they're gone: https://www.rubysrecipebox.com Ruby Dawson is eighty-two years old, and she made this one for seniors whose hands ache and whose backs will not let them stand at a stove anymore. She counts down 45 cheap and easy crockpot meals the old Southern way, three ingredients apiece, the kind of slow cooker recipes where you put three things in the pot, shut the lid, and go sit down. All the while a pork shoulder cooks in her South Georgia kitchen with only three things in the pot, and one of them came out of a can. Her own three children have asked for forty years what was in that can, and she never told a one of them. Until now. In this one, Ruby covers: • The Sunday pot roast that makes its own gravy while you are at church, and the two pantry helpers that will smother near about anything • Grape jelly meatballs, cranberry chicken, and sweet tea chicken, the three ingredient slow cooker suppers nobody at homecoming can figure out • Smothered turkey wings from Ernestine Pollard of Greenwood, Mississippi, rice and gravy from Josette Landry of Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, carne guisada from Lupe Salinas of San Antonio, Texas, and Savannah red rice off a card from Lois Brannen of Savannah, Georgia • Potato soup with no peeling, beans that cook themselves, and the plain safety rules for a slow cooker, like which bean must never go in the pot dry • What came out of that can and over the pork shoulder, and the Sunday dinner she saved for the very end Tell Ruby down in the comments where you are watching from, and whether your mama made it this way too. Ruby reads every one of them herself.
