I've got issues with the crockpot. Everything seems to taste the same -- whether it's pork, chicken or beef -- so unless I'm desperate I steer clear of
This can be very true, but try to think about your crockpot in a different way. Instead of the "dump and go mode" there are many ways to use the crockpot for a quick tasty meal. I like to put a chunk of pork or beef in, cook all day, and then fork shred it and add BBQ sauce to the shredded meat. Makes great sandwhices. Don't over look things like sandwhiches, fajitas, or getting the meat nice and tender and then making a really good sauce in your saucepan to put over it, etc.
