I usually find that unless the root veg are on the bottom they don't cook properly otherwise it's yumm

bumpity bump Putting mine on now. I have a huge crockpot (8 litres!) so I hope I can fill it enough. Am about to make the stuffing for the topping. Does it have to seal!

Made this tonight and it was sooo nice and l used tinfoil to seal it and we took off some of the juice when we turned it down 1pm and reduced that to make an awesome gravy.Will make it again with more vegies and will get some watercress

My first This is my first time ever even looking on a message board. I found this idea yesterday and thought that I would give it a go. I have done once before a hangi in a Kai cooker so thought that it could work(may be lol.lol). Did as described above taking everyone comments on board. Lose Crock pot lid,so after placing everything in I placed a teatowel over the top then placed the lid on top, adding a cast iron skillet on top. Have now taken off the skillet smells FABULOUS. Will know in 1 hour. Thank you so much for all the input everyone has had. For a newby like me it shows that message boards are worth checking out.

Binn Inn smoked essence ! I purchased a small bottle of Hickory smoke flavour from Binn Inn for $6. I was going to use it but didnt particularly like its strong smell. This essence is used for brewing your own spirits so Im unsure if it can be used for a crock-pot hangi. Has anyone tried this !

janny3, Sep 1, 11:08am
Yes Mars I'm hooked too. Hope it was delicious for you.Don't know about the Binn Inn stuff, sorry James.Someone here posted they only need a few drops of liquid smoke in an old icecream container of water & you dip the vege into the water before popping them into the crockpot.I've not bothered b/c my brother complains about adding "chemicals".Let us know how you get on please.

Ive tried this useing pork. I put spuds and pumpkin on bottom. Then pork. On top of the pork, I rubbed with a bit of olive oil, salt and crushed garlic. Then I cut off the skin of a bacon hock and cut into strips, laying them over the pork. Chucked some sliced carrots around the side and a double mixture of chicken stuffing over the top. Then I roughly chopped some cabbage and spread over it all. I then convered it with a teatowel and put the lid on. I cooked on high for 3 hours and then low for 4. It was perfect. Ive just bought some Hickory Smoke from Binn Inn and will try this next week.

Hickory smoke Found a member on trademe selling small 25g bags for $2.50 free delivery :) doyle1 is traders name.
I have my parents coming up in school holidays so am going to give them a Crock pot hangi too.Can't wait!

janny3, Sep 25, 1:28am
Same. The spuds (etc) need to be at the bottom, as they need to be nearer the heat to cook through.

joker13, Sep 27, 5:53am
Hey I bought liquid smoke from trade me- very authentic and also strong so you dilute it. Well worth the $15

tasmum, Oct 2, 8:02pm
Best ever. made this for tea last night while my parents were staying.They said it tasted just like the real thing! It was delicious, even the kids enjoyed it.Now my mum is going to try it when she gets home.Thanks to the original poster for this great idea:)

janny3, Oct 8, 12:00am
Haven't tried yet but was told to use just a cpl of drops in a 2-litre container of water & dip your veg (etc) in that.Is that how you'd prepare yours!

lil_angel_kel, Oct 8, 3:32am
Yum Im so going to try this tomorrow night :) And am gonna do warm chocolate cake and custard for desert mmmmmmmm!

lil_angel_kel, Oct 8, 3:40am
Has anyone tried it with either lamb or mutton chops! :)

rosel4, Oct 8, 1:17pm
Done a whole chicken and those "hangi pork" packs from Paknsave turned out quite well.Why wouldn't the chops be ok!

lil_angel_kel, Oct 9, 2:33am
Just wanna make sure they arent too small as they might cook too fast compared to the veges! :)

tapuaeroa1, Oct 9, 7:55am
