Glazed Carrots for a Crowd (crock-pot)

5 - 6 lbs Frozen Carrots
1 cup Butter
1 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons Salt
1 teaspoon Pepper

Cook carrots according to package. Can substitute cooked baby carrots in this recipe.

Place cooked carrots in crock-pot.
I combine butter, sugar, salt, and pepper and pour over. I leave on low while I prepare the rest of food. Heat on low approximately 3 to 4 hours.
Can be easily adapted for use on stove top.

Glazed Carrots

This recipe I use mostly for entertaining and special occasions, not for everyday.  You can scale it as you see fit.

6 Pounds baby carrots (or equiv. frozen)
1 cup butter
1 1/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons pepper (I use slightly less.)

Bring carrots to a boil and simmer 20 to 30 minutes.  Carrots should be slightly firm and not mushy.

Drain carrots and return to pot (or use crockpot) and add remaining ingredients. Cook on lowest setting for 5 to 7 minutes until the sugar mixture is bubbly.

I have used frozen carrrots, added to crockpot with rest of ingredients, and cooked on low for serveral hours.  Or add cooked carrots and remaining ingredients to crockpot and cook on low for a few hours.
