hey goo I crock up all the time. Sitting in my fridge is a crockpot full of lamb stew - I got some very cheap bones covered in meat, added water, barley, potatos, celery, carrots, herbs, tomato sauce, and just let it cook on high for about 5 hours then on low for another 5. I added frozen peas and corn and just stirred them in after it was done. You might need to add more water if it gets too thick. Put it on before 10:00 a.m. Eat at 5 or 6!

How did I not think of stew? That sounds delicious... Might add some mushrooms! How much water did you put in, approximately?

yes, mushrooms! There's some ratio of barley to water -- check it: 1 cup barley to 2 cups water maybe.
