By Darr (Guest Post)
I have two recipes that came from the old Rival CROCK*POT slow cooker/server COOKBOOK. 1. Easy Does-it Spaghetti 1 lb. ground beef 1 T.dry minced onion 1 1/2 t. salt 1/2 t. garlic powder 1/2 t. dry mustard 1 8-ounce can tomato sauce 1/4 t. each: mace, allspice and pepper 1 4-ounce can sliced mushrooms, drained 3 cups tomato juice 4 ounces dry spaghetti (1 1/2 cups) broken in 4" to 5" pieces Brown ground beef well in skillet and place in CROCK-POT. Add all remaining ingredients except dry spaghetti; stir well. Cover and cook on Low 6 to 8 hours. (High: 3 1/2 hours). Turn to High last hour and stir in dry spaghetti. Serves 4
2. ITALIAN MEAT SAUCE 1 1/2 pounds ground chuck, browned 1 1/2 cups chopped onion 2 cloves garlic 1 14 1/2-ounce can tomatoes 2 6-ounce cans tomato paste 2 stalks celery with tops, chopped 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves 1 bay leaf Put all ingredients in CROCK-POT. Stir thoroughly. Cover and cool on Low 10 to 12 hours. (High: 3 to 5 hours).
I hope one of them is the recipe you were looking for. Enjoy.
Here's a recipe from the Crockpot Cookbook that came with the crockpot. I received this crockpot as a gift in 1976 and am still using it! It's a Rival model 3150, 3 1/2 Qt.
I couldn't find a spaghetti sauce recipe in the book but this one is called Italian Meat Sauce. Maybe it's the one you're thinking of?
Italian Meat Sauce
1 c. chopped onion 1 - 1/2 lbs. ground chuck, browned 2 cloves garlic 1 large can tomatoes (1lb 12oz) 1 6oz can tomato paste 2 stalks celery, with tops, chopped 2 tsp. salt 3 tsp. dried oregano 1/4 tsp dried thyme 1 bay leaf
Put all ingredients in crockpot. Stir thoroughly. Cover and cook on Low 10 - 12 hrs or High 3 - 5 hrs.
Ingredients may be increased by half for the 5 Qt model.
