Slow Cooker Apple Barbecue Pork Loin is a great way to have your barbecue without having to grill! It's the hottest month of the year here in Oregon. We do not have AC in most of our house, the kitchen gets 90+ degrees some days if I even turn on the dishwasher. I don't feel like even stepping outside to start the barbecue. This recipe I wasn't sure if it was going to turn out and I was even more worried if it would photograph well. I'm glad I went through testing this recipe out, it's a ...

We fit in so much during those 10 days that I haven't left my house much for almost ...
Slow Cooker Garlic Beer French Dips
Slow Cooker Garlic and Beer French Dips are an easy dinner or great game day meal! French Dip Sandwiches were one of the first recipes that I made in my slow cooker years ago. I have many ways I like to make French dips, but I seem to always go back to adding beer with the beef. What's great about making the French dip meat in the slow cooker is that the drippings are used for dipping the sandwiches in, that flavorful broth that's made is call au jus. I like to degrease the drippings before ...

Slow Cooker Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake is a dessert that you will want to make over and over. Hello! Today I have a new dessert recipe for you. This one is very rich and decadent, so if you are hoping for a light dessert, look away.

Slow Cooker Buffalo Ranch Drumsticks
Slow Cooker Buffalo Ranch Chicken Drumsticks are a spicy dinner that I can't get enough of! Buffalo wings are one of my top 10 favorite foods and probably always will be. This recipe uses skinless drumsticks mostly because I don't have to worry about browning the skin and it keeps the sauce from getting greasy. I add a touch of cayenne for more heat and also minced garlic. Taking the skin off the drumsticks takes a bit of work, but once you get the rhythm down it's no problem. I start by ...
