Making chicken Chile verde in a crock pot. Cut some tomatillos, poblano, jalapeno in half and threw them in a 425 oven for 30 minutes. While they were going I lined the bottem of a big crock pot with sliced onion and chopped garlic. I cut up a whole chicken and put it on top with salt and pepper and turned it on high to get it up to temp. When the vegetables were done I threw them in a food processor with the juice of a lime and chopped that up. I poured the mix on top of the chicken and turned it down to low. In about 7-8 hours I'll pull the chicken out and throw the meat back in and give it a stir.

I have no idea what I'm doing.

[James]

Chili turned out good. Probably could use more vegetables though and maybe less pulses on the food processor. Also leaving the back bone and ribs out next time.

I tried that self unrack thing where you lift your butt up, unrack then set it down and it just made the single and the first set fucking awkward.

Whoops. I never done these but mistakenly thought I was supposed to do sets of six. So I worked up with sixs instead of eights.

Let rep two of 285x3@9 drift and I knew the third wasnt happening that set. The two doubles were easy after it so I'm not going to worry.

I have no idea what I'm doing.

man, it sounds like you know exactly what you're doing.

Okay I may have cheated and looked up a recipe. It was actually an instapot one that didn't bother roasting the vegetables because finding a slow cooker chile verde recipe that isn't "cook chicken/pork to death then dump store bought salsa on top" was impossible.

In more lazy cooking with Jimmy. Last night I ran about five pounds of potatoes through the slicer on my food processor and mixed them up in a big roasting pan with sliced onions, flour, water (out of stock), salt, pepper and garlic cloves. After 30minutes at 350 I put a spatch cocked dry brined chicken on top for an hour. The chicken fat rendered down into the potatoes and everything turned out great. Sliced potatoes probably don't need the precook but you can do cubes or wedges like this too.
