It was a little more citrusy than I would have liked but everyone else seemed to enjoy it so I'm giving it five stars. If it were just for me I would maybe sub 1/4 cup of orange juice for water.

This was my first time cooking cranberries in a crock pot. It was easy and they turned out very tasty. I think though they are just as easy to cook on the stove since they don't take long. I'd probably reserve my crock pot for another use and just do them stovetop. The recipe is quite good and we enjoyed it.

Made this the last 4 years for Thanksgiving. Will be making it again. So easy and frees up my stovetop.
