It turned out awesome - but I knew I wanted veges in it too, so I didn't need to make a side dish to go with it. I had to sneak a bite for lunch, and I think 12+ hours would have been enough time, but I still let it cook for the full 22 hours (although it seemed no more or less tender with additional cooking, but still very tender). I added a 1lb onion, about 7 cloves garlic slivered, about 3/4lb baby carrots, 1/2lb snow peas, and about 1-1/2lb of cubed potatoes. I put the meat in so that it lined the bottom of the crock pot and piled the everything else in on the top (the veges were not in any of the juice at first since they were on top of of the meat, as intended -- I didn't them overcook and allowed me to prepare everything at once). In the morning, when I had plenty of juice, I stirred it up and let it veges cook in the juice with the meat for the rest of the time. Perfect. I suggest adding some vegetables (though I haven't cooked it by the recipe to say that its better without).
