I just got a Crock-pot and all I know how to make is Beans! I hate beans BTW. Do you know of any recipes that are idiot proof with ingrediants found in Korea?

No google is not broke.
Where do you find Hoisin sauce and water chestnuts in Inchon??? That's the main reason I am asking here for recipes. Plus I'd like to hear from people who've actually tried the recipes before I end up with a pot of blackened non-descript food.

I bought it from G-market. The plug is wired for North America though.

cheap cut of beef, tomatoes, onions, chicken stock. Sear the meat, brown the onions, skin the tomatoes (boil them for like 1 min and it comes right off) then put it all in the crock pot and let it cook for a long ass time. Put in whatever other veggies/greens/herbs you want at the end. Add salt.

I've also seen crock pots in E-mart and Lotte Mart for 30-60K.

Carnitas- take a pork shoulder or butt, cut it in half if its really big, and rub it with cumin, garlic powder and onion powder. Put it in the crockpot, put a little bit of water and a bay leaf, and cook it on low for 10 hours, or until fork tender. Then take it out and shred it using a fork. I like my carnitas crispy, so I put it in a pan and crisp it up. No oil needed, since it already has a lot of fat.

I usually eat it with Spanish rice and tortillas. To make Spanish rice, you need a rice cooker. Cook the rice as normal, but put in a spoonful of tomato paste, some diced garlic and onions, a bit of olive oil and some cumin and salt. I usually put some cheese on top when eating.
