Crockpot Baked/Roasted New Potatoes - no muss, no fuss, no last minute worries!

Baked/roasted new potatoes accompanied this year’s corned beef and cabbage. The traditional St. Pat’s corned beef cooks all day in a crockpot so following that lead, I pulled out another crockpot, filling it with new potatoes. It was an experiment  — one that turned out well. No muss, no fuss and dinner was ready without any last minute worries. I will definitely prepare new potatoes this way again in the future.


Crockpot Baked/Roasted New Potatoes    About 6 servings

3 pounds new potatoes, all about equal in size (I used a mixture of red and white)

2 tablespoons olive oil

5 cloves garlic, minced 

Optional herbs: Fresh—1 teaspoon fresh thyme &/or 1 teaspoon of fresh rosemary (or use about ½ teaspoon dried herbs

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons butter, cubed

Fresh chopped parsley for garnish if desired

  1. Wash and dry the potatoes. Leave whole if small or cut larger one in half.
  2. Place potatoes in the bottom of a oval crockpot. Add olive oil, garlic, herbs if using, salt & pepper and mix until combined. Dot with cubed butter.

  3. Pour the potato mixture into a slow cooker, cover and cook for 2-3 hours on high or 4-5 hours on low.
  4. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired.
