Failure is not an option.

I was excited to try this one because crocked acorn squash is delicious. It has not failed me yet.

"Spiced Acorn Squash" (6 quart pot)

~2 acorn squash, halved and seeded (The recipe said 3, but I've crocked enough acorn squash to know that there is NO way 3 would fit in my pot. 2 fit and only just barely. Also, I'm pretty sure it's a typo because the author didn't allow enough butter for 6 halves.)
~3/4 c brown sugar, packed
~1 t cinnamon
~1 t nutmeg
~1/4 c golden raisins (Only because I had them. The recipe said "1 small box of raisins".
~4 T butter (The recipe said 4. )
~1/2 c water
~aluminum foil* (optional)

Combine cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar.
Spoon mixture into squash.
Top with raisins.
Add 1 T butter to each. (Notice...3 x 2 is 6. NOT 4. Right? Right.)
Wrap each squash separately in aluminum foil. (optional)
Pour water into crock pot.
Put squash, cut side up, in crock pot. Stacking is okay.
Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or until tender.
Open foil carefully, allowing steam to escape/

4 servings.

I have crocked enough acorn squash to know a few things. First, you do NOT need to use foil. I tested my theory today (because...why not?). 2 were wrapped and 2 were not. They tasted exactly the same. Also, crocked acorn squash is delicious.
