"I like the fall comfort foods like chili, pot roast, hot dish, hot chocolate, chai tea, pumpkin, apples, butternut squash, eggnog, peppermint bark, candy canes, cranberries, wild rice, stew, venison and duck as I have a lot of hunters in my family. I too love those cherries when they come in." –danionavenue

"You can definitely cook a prime rib in a crock pot, but you got to be careful the meat is raised enough it doesn't poach in its own juices. Before you add the rib, add 3 sliced large onions, big chops of carrots and celery and a whole garlic head cut in half. Place the meat on top of the vegetables. Add a little liquid (beef or chicken broth, or V8 veg juice) so it doesn't burn while the meat heats up. I've cooked plenty of ... prime ribs in a crock pot; everyone raved. You get the same results as cooking it covered in the oven. You won't get the outer crisp, but it's cleaner and easier." – jjthebig1

"I've also found turkey bacon good for doing my bacon-wrapped chicken breasts. I used to partially cook pork bacon before wrapping it around the chicken, but it still was flabby after cooking in sauce for a couple hours. Turkey bacon is just another piece of poultry and never feels flabby, so I've used it for that dish for years, even before I stopped eating regular bacon for other meals." – jmcarthur8
