Yes I tried so many recipes that just didn't click. I think the beer is the key as it makes the meat so moist and tender. I will try it with the pearl onions as my husband loves onions and one less thing to chop with my schedule will be a huge help! I do try to get things done the night before so then all I have to do is throw everything in the crockpot and turn it on. I would never consider you lazy! You have so many wonderful recipes. Added you as my favorite cook so I don't miss one single recipe of yours:)

You can buy the slow cooker liners in most grocery stores and Walmart too. My local Walmart sometimes does not have them, but the Publix store always has them.
Reynolds is the company that makes them and you can find them in the zip lock bag section.
They only come in one size, and it fits a very large slow cooker. It's one size fits all, because when i use my smaller crock pot, I just have more over the outside
