  Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes
Ingredients:
  5 lbs   sierra gold potatoes or red potatoes, diced with peel
  1 c   water
  1 c   butter, cut into chunks
  1 T   salt
  3/4 t   ground black pepper
  1 1/3 c   milk, warmed
Directions:
  1. Place the potatoes, water, and butter into a slow cooker.
2. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Cover, and cook on High for 4 hours.
4. Do not remove the excess water from slow cooker. This adds to the creamy texture.
5. Mash potatoes with a masher or electric beater, adding the desired amount of warm milk to achieve a creamy consistency.
6. Keep warm on low until serving.
7. Potatoes keep consistency for a couple of hours after mashing. Just keep the lid on the slow cooker and serve directly from there.
