POLISH CHOLENT

We deliver hundreds of portions of cholent every week to Shuls and homes all over the NY area. Of the 16 versions we offer from around the globe, this Polish is the most traditional. This recipe has been adapted for a 6qt Crockpot. As stated before, I’m a huge fan of the crock-pot bags (lg turkyy baking bags work too) They make clean-up a breeze and my wife happy
