There is so much Supernatural fanfic that finding the stories you want to read can be a challenge. Rec communities provide recommendations on fan creations -- primarily fiction, but also art and vids. The fans providing the recommendation will usually highlight some features of a story or fanwork that they particularly liked.
Other places which to look for stories are communities that run Fanfic challenges & exchanges, the Supernatural Fic Link Archive or one of the Fan Fic Archives. Character, pairing and genre entries on the Super Wiki also will have links to communities specific to that interest.
Livejournal rec communities
- spnnewsletter has a Rec section collating both community and individual recs each day.
- crack_impala and sawedoff_recs are multimedia rec communities covering all genres and pairings. A great place to start.
- SPN Gen Love for Gen fic.
- Re(c)-hymenated is a Dean/Castiel rec community.
- spnroundtable has monthly themed rec posts from guest reccers in addition to sessions where authors and artists talk about their work, as well as chat posts on different topics.
- spn_themes features regular posts focusing on fics connected by a common theme eg stories focussing on sport, or college AUs.
- Spn Storyfinders is a comm where people can request recs on a certain theme, or find particular stories. Amazing resource.
- winabler reccing comm with weekly themes - inactive since 2008
- Crack Van is a multi-fandom rec community, where guests rec fic in their fandom for a month. While Supernatural is featured, reccing has become irregular as fandom-specific communities have grown.

- Supernatural Vid recs is a reccing comm for fanvids.
