lightly – discard excess flour. Heat one tablespoon olive oil in a 12-inch
nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the chicken and cook
over medium-high heat for 3 minutes on each side until brown. Transfer
to a plate and repeat with the remaining chicken. Add the remaining
tablespoon olive oil and cook the portobello mushrooms in a single
layer until golden brown on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Add
the browned portobello mushrooms to the vegetable mixture.
Arrange half the chicken thighs in the ceramic pot of the Waring™ Slow
Cooker. Top with half the vegetable mixture. Repeat layers. Tuck bay
leaf into the center of the mixture. Cover and turn power selector to
high. Set time to 8 hours and turn to low; slow cooker will automatically
switch to warm when cooking time has elapsed. Remove and discard
bay leaf before serving.

Barbecue Beef Brisket
This is a multi-step process, but well worth the effort. Because brisket is chilled
after cooking, it allows you to remove excess fat, and makes slicing easier.
Makes 6 to 8 servings
1 beef brisket, approximately 2½ pounds
2 tablespoons light or dark brown sugar, packed
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 medium onion, peeled, cut into ½-inch slices
½ cup lager or ale
2 cups (more to taste) purchased barbecue sauce

-inch thickness. Do not remove it all –
it helps to keep the brisket tender and moist. Combine the brown sugar,
Worcestershire, pepper, garlic powder, salt, dry mustard, and liquid
smoke. Rub all over the brisket. If time allows, cover and refrigerate
overnight to marinate. Make a single layer of the sliced onions in the
bottom of the ceramic pot of the Waring™ Slow Cooker. Add the lager.
