I used leg/thigh combo in the slow cooker. I also used regular chopped onions for pearl onions. My kids thought it was weird because of the color, but it had a very nice taste. Served over white rice. Very easy to make. I will make this again.

I was told by a professional chef to put a handful of raisins into this dish for flavor. Also you might use a combination of white wine and port if you want something a little sweeter and grape-ier.

I give this a 5 for flavor and simplicity! It has a fabulous full flavor and is very aromatic while cooking. I will definately be making it again soon! Thank you!

This dish made Julia Child famous. It is a mix of complex ingredients coming from simple foods -- use only the freshest ingredients for this dish. If you do not have a very large skillet, reduce the onions to 8 and the mushrooms to 8 as well. The bacon flavor is essential to this dish so I recommend frying a few pieces of bacon in place of the bacon bits. Use only a dry red wine that you would drink (and enjoy)-- I recommend a Pinot Noir for this dish.
