Per reading previous reviews I made this with a few minor adjustments...I left out the butternut squash. If I had been home and able to throw it in during the last hour of cooking I would have kept it, but knowing that cubed butternut would turn to mush if in the slow cooker that long, I had to pass. Also I added a little extra Ultimate Steak, and I cooked mine on high for 5 hours not on low for 8-10 hours. Perfect!!! Husband and little kid approved!! Will make again
