A proper braise is delicious and melt-in-your-mouth tender.
You are just a bad cook.

It's a dial, retard.
Brainlet cook selects the wrong cut of meat and cooks it at the wrong setting for way too long.

i dont think thats what he wants.

OP fucking learn how to grill some meat, if you wont/cant then fuck off.

>> No.12848493

It's not acceptable to own or use slow cookers for any reason.

>> No.12848500

>>12848485
Agreed with this OP, if you want to appreciate traditional steak cuts, you absolutely need to learn how to grill. Slow cookers are fine for chicken and vegetables and such. Or really tough cuts, like beef shank or something.

You shouldn’t put them into the slow cooker until the last hour. A bouquet garni is just a French term for tying together a bundle of herbs with a string or in a cheese cloth to add to a pot for flavor so you can pull it out later. You can just throw whole sprigs of rosemary in and pull them out before you serve.

If you can't deal with the meat texture, use your slow cooker for something else. I love me some fruit soup. Just throw like 4 different types of fruit along with some fruit juice and cook for like 5 hours. If you plan to eat it cold instead of hot, throw some gelatin in.
