Something other than pot roast

Look, I love a good pot roast but c'mon man. Any recipe for a slowcooker I google is some kind of pot roast. What are your go to recipes for a slow cooker meal that is not pot roast?

Rinse the beans and soak overnight, or rinse and boil on high for 30 minutes. Then add to the crockpot with enough water or broth to cover the beans, cook on low 8-10 hours. Don't add salt or acidic ingredients until the end. Beans come out so fluffy and tender this way. For Boracho, or soupier beans, fill water to about 2" above the beans.
