They are awesome because you can set them to start later, or to stop and switch to warm once the dinners are ready. Amazon has some on sale right now too.
I also really like this crockpot. Now, it’s not programmable but it’s so handy!
It has the feature where you can lock the lid down.
That feature is so nice for when you take meals to potlucks or need to transport the meal somewhere.
Now if you want to save yourself even more time then I really recommend these Crockpot liners. They make clean up a breeze.
Instead of scrubbing and washing the pot, you can just toss the liner. It is practically no clean up.

This was easy and delicious. I was snowed in and didn’t have a lot of ingredients. Recently moved so I literally had almost no spices.I used 1/2 tsp Mrs dash tomato basil garlic, salt and pepper. I used sweet potatoes, lentils, pinto beans, 1 flank steak cut into pieces, corn, canned whole tomatoes, canned beef broth. The lentils weren’t quite done but that was only issue. I still ate it.
Loved it! Even my husband, who is not a huge sweet potato fan, liked it. I stumbled upon this recipe while looking for something different to make with sweet potatoes. I am so glad I did. The sweet potatoes really give the stew an interesting taste, and we didn’t miss the regular potatoes at all. This will be my new go to beef stew recipe! Thanks for sharing!
When you say stew meat, what do you find to be the best for this recipe? Also, do you put the meat in crock pot raw or first brown it? Thanks
Linda – I have frozen this stew in the raw form (prior to cooking) but have not frozen it after it was cooked yet. You can freeze it after it is cooked but I’m would watch it closely when you are reheating it as the sweet potatoes might become too soft and fall apart. You can also cut them large to ensure that they won’t fall apart when reheating. Let us know how it works out!
Carrie or anyone else, have you ever frozen this stew? How did that go? I am thinking of making this as a gift but would need to freeze for a week or so. Any thoughts appreciated, thank you Linda
??????????Loved this dish will make again
??????????Loved this dish. Will make again. Thank you
Dear Carrie,
I want to thank you very much for posting your Crock Pot Sweet Potato Beef Stew Recipe. It was THE best stew recipe I have ever made. I followed the recipe, with only one charge. I put 3 FRESH Bay Leaf’s in. My husband could not stop raving about how this stew tasted, and requested this be a staple in the recipes I make.
I have made many many of your recipes, but this was a home run by far.
Thank you again for sharing.
This was wonderful! Highly recommend!
Love love this !!!!
