If you are cooking this recipe in a slow cooker, when should you add the 
Bellpepper? Wouldn't that make it too mushy as well? This recipe sounds good

 Yes, just cook the rice on the side so it doesn't become mushy in slow cooker.

 John,

   Do you think this recipe would work in a slow cooker? When my
 family and I take food to a potluck, I like to bring it in a crockpot,
 so the food stays at a safe temperature.

 African Beef and Rice

 This delicious African style beef and rice is packed with flavors. It's a 
 well balanced dish that has chunks of beef,  lots of beans, and vegetables. 
 The slow simmering develops lots of deliciousness, an excellent meal in a 
 cold  winter day.
 Ingredients

 1 pound   beef round steak cubed
 2tablespoons  vegetable oil
 1 cup  water
 1 each bay leaf
 1teaspoon salt
 1/4  teaspoon red pepper flakes to taste
 16   ounces  kidney beans canned, drained
 1 cup  rice raw
 2medium  green bell pepper chopped
 1 medium  onion chopped
 1 1/2teaspoons   salt
 1teaspoon curry powder
 1/4  teaspoon black pepper
 Directions  Preheat oven  to 350°F (180°C).  Brown beef in oil in skillet. 
 Add water, bay leaf, salt and red pepper.  Cover and simmer for 45 minutes. 
  Drain beef, reserving broth.
add enough water to make 2 cups liquid and pour all 
 ingredients into 2 quart casserole dish, cover  and bake in oven  for 50 
 minutes.
 I have made this several times, I would cook the rice about 10 minutes 
 longer than suggested.  Also, I did not  use a bay leaf because I did not 
 have one.  Also, the spices can be varied depending upon personal 
 preferences.

Hi,

I make this recipe on the top of the stove all the time.  I leave out the
red pepper flakes though.  I leave out the bay leaves too sometimes, but it
is probably better with them.  I love this dish!
