Easy Slowcooker Spaghetti

[@theeyesehaveit]

Don’t ever apologize or feel embarrassed when u make a faux pax. Because it makes you relate-able to the rest of us. I always enjoy your cooking adventures and look every day to see if one is posted. And I for one will miss you when you leave us to journey on your new path. Barbara in Alabama.

[@PhyllisStokes]

Thanks, Barbara. I don't plan on leaving--if folks are interested, I'll take you along on the journey!

[@callonthenameofjesus1459]

@@PhyllisStokes So glad to hear you aren’t leaving. Thank you for all you do.

Yummy stuff right there.

Haven’t eaten dinner yet when watching this, made me hungry. I love spaghetti! Great easy meal!

[@debj4life478]

Oh my goodness, never thought of throwing in raw ground beef in the crock pot. Can’t wait to try. Thanks for sharing.

[@patriciamiller8794]

Holy cow! This is a life changing recipe! Super easy for a busy week! Can't wait to try it! Thank you!!!

Let me know what you think!

Enjoy your videos…..l sure miss your Mom, l learned so much from her.

Crock-a-pot Dundee...🤣...Ty Stephen...looks yummy.

[@PhyllisStokes]

It was!

[@julieparker5029]

You did such a great job Steve. I love throwing everything into the Crock-Pot. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@mac-rv5jw]

So great to see you again!!! Def will make this one. Add some buttery garlic bread too. Ok and a salad too. Thanks for carrying on your wonderful Mom's traditions!!

[@judithburke1539]

Sometimes I add a can of green beans to the sauce and skip the salad. The flavors blend well together. Fewer dishes to was wash along with less prep time.

[@jjsolly5039]

Been wondering what to bring to a pot luck dinner! Dump it in a cassarole, top with parm cheese and away we go! God bless you Col. Stephen!

[@beverleyhill1110]

Just a suggestion but I add a couple of Bay leaves 🍃. It seems to give a smoother taste. Plus add a teaspoon of sugar to cut the acid from the tomato 🍅 sauce.

[@theeyesehaveit]

Yes to the adding sugar.

[@kathleenharris3403]

Lol the spaghetti going in, kept repeating haha, the finale was awh I'll just put in the whole box.

[@teresafraher7595]

Looks really good! Love crockpot cooking when you don't want to heat up the kitchen. Can't wait to try it!

Great dish Steve.Going to try this.👍.

One of my very favorites. Thank you!

[@shirleylaboy603]

I made spaghetti tonight but not in the crockpot. I'm going to try it in the crockpot next time it looks delicious. Ive added different sauces together to use them up and they always taste ok in the end.. thanks for sharing your recipe Colonel. 🙂❤️

[@dianelopez2516]

Like your style of cooking keep it as simple as possible!

[@daisybee1439]

Thanks for this super easy recipe, will need to try it.

[@gidget8717]

Back in the 90s we had a camper down in Alabama, I used to do a lot of crock-pot meals. We could go out on the water all day and supper was quick and easy. Spaghetti was my husband's favorite. I added bell pepper and mushrooms with the onions, but I usually used macaroni so husband called it 'Spaghetti Macaroni' 🤣

[@PhyllisStokes]

I love mushrooms in spaghetti. I'll add them next time!

[@MKCarol-ms7lg]

In my imagination it smells wonderful.

[@greeneyedbandit1963]

I have been watching many of your Mothers videos the last few days. I had come across her KZbin channel a few years ago. Probably a year before Mr. Buckeys passing . She had so many wonderful videos. Yours just popped up on the screen as a video to watch. Enjoy your evening Steven 😊 and that spaghetti, too.

[@Kare1949]

Thank you Steve for this yummy and easy recipe❤️❤️🙏🙏

[@debbiemoeller2169]

Good to see you back in the kitchen🤣🤣. Looks amazing!! I'm definitely going to try this!! Thank you so much. Be safe❤❤👍🙏

Looks really yummy

[@NatalieWiltshire]

so easy to do definitely trying this

[@InnKogNeeto]

I love slow cooker cooking! Can’t wait to give it a try!

[@dianebrickles1247]

Steve...when you use dry herbs as you did today, crush them between the plans of your hands. It releases the natural oils and you will get more flavor in your dish.

[@shariwille336]

looks so good.

[@faithunseen123]

Will definitely make this!Thank you for these easy recipes!

[@PhyllisStokes]

My pleasure 😊

[@ennuiblue4295]

Love easy spaget! 🍝

[@lemonjay2076]

You hooked me with this title! So far every recipe is excellent! Gonna try this one this weekend! Love the raw pasta idea. Love and Light.

[@sharonpapastathis1236]

Steven! Love you Buddy! This was SO FUNNY. YOU CAN BE POSITIVE YOUR MOM IS ROLLING, REALL THAT WHOLE CAN OF TOMATO PASTE. OH BOY 😯😯😧😮😵‍💫 REALLY DO LOVE YOU AND YOUR MOMS SHOW , I MISS HER SO MUCH 😪But do make us all laugh. You put a smile on my face, Thank your Steven🥴

[@Randy8923]

Wow thats easy, Only thing I would add is a little sugar to cut the tomato twang. Enjoyed.

[@mddell58]

Yes! The 🍅 tomato sauce, or paste has acidity that only sugar will cut. ✅

[@char8a291]

Love using the crock pot and really love spaghetti! Will try this soon! God bless!

[@wendybrown2588]

Looks really good Steve!😋 Another easy crockpot dish is Lazy Day Lasagna. Replacing spaghetti noodles with frozen cheese ravioli. I'm all about easy cooking too Steve lol!😁

[@mddell58]

Our family, 25 years ago, only used thin spaghetti, then, almost 20 years ago,, fell in love with ♥️ angel hair 😇pasta, by Barilla. Boil for only about four to five minutes MAX, & it's a tiny bit al denta'. So very good! It goes with any sauce, & we'll serve NOT mixed with sauce. Sauce is added on top of pasta., salad on side. So, so good. ✅

[@PhyllisStokes]

I love angel hair pasta, too!

[@glendadavid1374]

Stephen You are so much like Mother Phyllis. Its amazing. Pls pls use tomato sauce or tomato puree. Your Mom and I liked simmering sauce but we used tomato puree. Just fyi Brother. You look happy its good to see Happiness on you. You are going home with great ambition about getting back to being a well trained Pilot. Mother Phyllis said he is a good Pilot but he got his direction from Mr Bucky and I mostly Me. I said I can believe that you are a strong woman. Your Mom was very Proud of You Stephen. When you start flying up the n the blue yander pls send up some prayers from us All to Mother Phyllis. We will be Praying for you Brother. God Bless You and Arlene and the Grown Babies. ☦☦☦🙏🙏🙏💫💫💫

[@PhyllisStokes]

Thank you, Glenda!

[@Lesa-ei2bx]

Another great recipe😋 Thank you Colonel

[@patriciasnyder9939]

looks delicious!

[@lired70]

Stephen, OK I am a sauce purist. Your idea is spot on, however that much paste can ruin a good recipe. If you have a decent bottle of red wine, use that to thin out the sauce. It will add flavor and thin the sauce. If you really look at Ragu Sauce, it will stick to a spoon. It looks like all it has in it is tomato paste. I love the concept of cooking this dish in the crock pot. It's great how you use your resources. You really have to in today's world!

[@PhyllisStokes]

Thanks for the tips, Patty!

[@lired70]

@@PhyllisStokes You are so welcome Stephen. One more tip? No sugar in the sauce. Wait until the sauce comes to a boil, you are watching and stirring until it gets to this stage. Take a little baking soda and sprinkle all over the boiling sauce. It sweetens the tomatoes and calms the acid down. If anyone gets heartburn from tomatoe sauce this will help. After the boiling stops then add your spices. I carmalize a big sweet onion. Use as much garlic as you like. For 8 quarts I use 12 pieces. Don't carmalize the garlic,put it in raw. Salt, fresh basil and red pepper to taste. I know it's good because when I go to Virginia Beach to visit my son. I have to bring my very seasoned 50 year old Club Aluminum pot. Yes to make sauce and homemade meatballs. My son will alert all of his friends that I coming! I forgot,always use a quality olive oil.but never fry with it. It seems like you just can't blot olive oil out of the food. Hope this helps.👍

[@omaerin3529]

Good job Steve, you could add a little bit of water when you reheat it. Nothing like home cooking. Stay well and safe.

[@JohnnyUtah15]

Looks like some good eatin’ 👍

[@PhyllisStokes]

It was!

[@janemartin229]

The problem with adding raw ground beef is that it almost melts in the liquid, which is the ideal way to make hot dog chili because you want it very fine. I like the chunky bits of browned ground beef in my spaghetti sauce.

[@PhyllisStokes]

That's a good point, Jane. There really were no larger chunks of beef in the sauce. The taste was there though.

[@janemartin229]

@@PhyllisStokes some people like a smoother texture.

[@judybryant3880]

Never tried adding noodles to the sauce to cook. Also never cooked sauce in a crock pot. I think the sauce would have done better and I think that was what you meant to use anyway. Still not sure about how I feel about adding the raw meat to it because of the grease. I usually drain some grease off unless it has very little fat. I think I might try it but brown the meat first and definitely use green peppers and less garlic. I'm a fan of the powered garlic because of convenience and as you said things don't last very long, not even the hamburger before it's turning brown. I wonder what your mom would think about your spaghetti. She was old fashioned and like to do everything from scratch. I definitely like the shortcuts and believe it still can be good but easier.

[@junewoodward8982]

Good on you Colonel, using great Australian beef !😊 What, no Vegemite 😂 Awesome quick recipe , great to see you.xo😊❤

[@PhyllisStokes]

Vegemite for the next batch, June!

[@junewoodward8982]

@@PhyllisStokes I'll keep you to that promise Colonel .! 😂👍

[@jrt1776]

Slow cooking raw ground beef is good because it keeps it tender and allows fat to cook out and flavor sauce but you need enough salt

[@yellowbird5411]

Pan spaghetti on the stove top works the same. There are some good recipes online for pan spaghetti. Green pepper would have given it some extra dimension, as would melted cheese on top.

[@collenrose3957]

Spaghetti is my all time favorite. You had me drooling big time! Thanks for sharing 🌈💚🙏💚🌈👍

[@ebudny7]

I cringed at using two different kinds of bottled spaghetti sauce because sometimes they just don’t go together well for some reason. I guess there wasn’t a problem. Also I still don’t know how it works with thin noodles. I thought it had to be thicker kinds of noodles to work without boiling. Do the noodles taste right? I guess so. Well, cool!

[@truthreallyupsetsmostpeopl759]

I love spaghetti a lot but I don’t use noodles from the box and don’t use beef, I use ground turkey meat and zucchini’s.

[@vickeyfoster3483]

looks good love spaghetti

[@NatalieWiltshire]

i always thought you had to brown meat first

[@glendadavid1374]

Oh Did you use Angel Hair or Thin or Regular Pasta Spaghetti ?

[@PhyllisStokes]

I just used regular spaghetti (number 3, I think).

[@jrt1776]

You needed more water...equal water to all cans you dumped. Tomatoes need room to move and cook down for sweetness. A pinch of sugar to tomatoes makes all the difference

[@sadonaharris1476]

Looks very good! I think you were correct in saying another cup or two of water would’ve been perfect. Especially with his much paste instead of sauce. Great job!

[@danc6436]

I sometimes use chicken broth in mine

[@garykreitz2428]

How much Hamburg was that and what size pack of noodles what size jars of sauce

[@PhyllisStokes]

That was a pound of hamburger. 2 16 ounce jars of spaghetti sauce.

[@charlottecolling7247]

How many days did you have to ear that

[@PhyllisStokes]

Still working on it 4 days later. Made about 6-8 meals for me.

[@tiffanyb4764]

@@PhyllisStokes with this recipe if you are eating it for days you could freeze a portion or two for later or make easy changes to change it up. Sauté some zucchini or any favorite veggies to add to it, add cheese, eat it on garlic bread and add cheese. Obviously the answer is cheese lol.

[@lauralutz4538]

Texture of, Franco American?

[@jrt1776]

Only mistake you made was when you added dry pasta and you needed more pasta with 3jars of tomatoes...you needed to add at least 2 cups of water! Paste needs lots of water...Water cooks out but leaves a more rounded flavor to sauce...also more salt with the pasta
