I like mine, too. I find it works better with meat than with veggies, which means I don't use it as often as I would, as my husband is vegetarian.
My favourite meat-based meal is steak and ale. You just toss cubed steak in seasoned flour (I add mustard powder) and brown it with an onion (or a bag of shallots), transfer it all to the slow cooker and pour over a bottle or can of strongly-flavoured beer, add in thickly cut carrots and cook either on high for four hours or low for six.
You can use cheaper cuts of meat, as the slow cooking will tenderise shoe leather, and this is delicious with mash or baked potatoes. I sometimes put it into a pie dish when cooked, and add a puff pastry lid.
If you are looking at them now, see what you think about an Instant Pot. They are a combination of an electric pressure cooker and a slow cooker, and are really versatile. I use the pressure cooker a lot (I was terrified of the one that went on the hob), and it has a slow cooker function, so you don't need to store two bulky gadgets.
