Is it an oval 6 quart or a round one? Round one doesn't have much surface space at the bottom.

You'll probably need 6-8 beef neck bones?

Sorry - one more question! Can the grated potatoes and onions be kept in the frig overnight so that I can prepare it on Friday Yom Tov, for the last day of Pesach lunch?

I haven't done that - the raw potato shreds turn brown. You may want to try that with red potatoes which are less likely to turn.
I've peeled them ahead of time and placed in the fridge in a container of water so they don't turn brown. Then hand grated on YT before putting up (everyone chips in and grates a potato!).

That sounds very interesting, saralem. Can you put the grated items in the freezer in a ziploc freezer bag? Do you defrost it in the frig for some hours before putting up the chulent? Thanks!

It’s gonna all turn brown when it cooks so I would do it this way ( but can’t say I have done it before)

It turns a cooked brown while cooking in the crockpot but it turns black when left raw. Supposedly it's safe to eat that way, but my family won't touch it.

To freeze potatoes for hash browns, shred potatoes; hold in a bowl of cold water until al lpotatoes are shredded. Drain and blanch in boiling water about 3 minutes. Drain, rinse in cold water, drain again and pat dry. Pack into freezer containers or resealable bags.from tasteofhome.com

Bumping up this thread for Pesach 2021.
Are beef neck bones preferable to beef marrow bones for this Pesach cholent recipe?
Perhaps is it ideal to include some of each?
Thanks in advance!

It doesn't need the grease of the marrow bones, but it's up to you.

Thanks, ra_mom!
I've never used bones in chulent before, or made chulent on Pesach.
Would you mind explaining what each type of bone "does" for the chulent?
Thanks so much!

Beef neck bones add a nice beefy flavor, and here is also keeps the meat moist without drying out while cooking in the yapsuk. They are often used in split pea soups or mushroom barley soups while the water cooks into broth.
Beef marrow bones are used for adding grease, and beefy flavor. The marrow seeps out while the bones cook, and lubricates everything so you can see fat globules. These bones are often used in cholent to add to the overall flavor and texture. Some people who don't add bones or fatty beef to the cholent, add some oil instead.
