I used celery stalks (the leafy bits) instead of seeds. (didn't have any)

Next time I do this recipe I'm going to use V8 juice instead of celery and ketchup...maybe it'll give it a bit of a "kick!"


Steph, try adding a wee tad (well, maybe a bigger tad) of Lea & Perrins and a sprinkle of chile pepper flakes. My recipe for these is very much the same except I've always done them in the oven for 3 hours more or less. The crockpot sounds like less work and no keeping track of timing.
