Set it and forget it — easy slow cooker meals that cook themselves while you go about your day.
A crockpot turns tough, cheap cuts of meat into tender, flavorful meals — all while you’re at work, running errands, or sleeping. Dump the ingredients in the morning, come home to dinner.
A bone-in pork shoulder with a dry rub, slow cooked for 8 hours until it falls apart. Shred with two forks and pile onto buns with coleslaw.
The rub:
Cook: Low for 8–10 hours. Add BBQ sauce in the last hour or serve on the side.
A warm, spicy soup loaded with shredded chicken, black beans, corn, tomatoes, and jalapeños. Top with crispy tortilla strips, avocado, and lime.
Dump and go:
Classic comfort food. Tender beef chunks with carrots, potatoes, celery, and onions in a rich, savory broth.
Pro tips:
Hearty, meaty chili with ground beef, kidney beans, diced tomatoes, and bold spices. The longer it cooks, the better it gets.
Secret ingredients:
A creamy, mildly spiced Indian classic that adapts perfectly to the slow cooker. Chicken thighs in a tomato-cream sauce with garam masala, cumin, and turmeric.
Serve with:
The viral slow cooker recipe for good reason. A chuck roast with ranch seasoning, au jus mix, butter, and pepperoncini peppers. Ridiculously tender.
