  • “This is a great way to cook the chokes. I would add that you need to sprinkle them good with lemon so they won’t darken. Also water to cover. I add garlic to my sauce and use olive oil instead of butter. I adore artichokes! Including the stems which are delish when peeled.”

  • “I give 5 stars for cooking method and 3 stars for taste.Overall a 4 star recipe.My husband and I both think that it was too lemony and next time I will cut way back on it.I didn’t cut the artichokes, but only trimmed the leaves and cut off the base.They cooked just as fast and turned out well.Great idea!”

  • “Great way to cook artichokes but way too much lemon. It almost ruined the flavor for me. I would use half the amount of lemon when cooking the artichokes in the crockpot or none at all. Save the lemon for the lemon butter. Yum!”

  • “I am just rating the Lemon Butter Sauce, because I used it to drizzle on my whole wheat pasta to have with Kitten’s recipe for Recipe #129345.I also added in a sprinkling of garlic powder.This was just what I was looking for, and it was delish! Thank you for sharing your recipe with us Dancer!Linda”

  • “I used one large artichoke, cooked on High w/ half the water & checked it at 3 hours – it was plenty well done.The lemon butter sauce was very good, a nice compliment to the choke.Like an avocado, the flesh immediately darkened when it was cut in half – not very appealing in the looks department.”
