12 game-day foods you can make in a slow cooker or Crock-Pot
From creamy Buffalo chicken dip to spicy homemade queso, these game-day snacks can all be made in a slow cooker.
Football season brings game day appetizers, and a slow cooker or Crock-Pot can make preparation a breeze. Sarah Olson's cookbook, "The Magical Slow Cooker," and Kim Laidlaw's "Everyday Slow Cooking: Modern Recipes for Delicious Meals" offer various recipes for game day that can all be made in a slow cooker, allowing you to relax and watch the game.
Meatballs, brats, brisket, pork shoulder, and pulled chicken with barbecue or Buffalo sauce are just a few of the options. Brisket, pork shoulder, and meatballs are hearty and perfect for feeding a crowd. Brisket, in particular, is tender and flavorful when slow-cooked. Pork shoulder can be braised and used in sliders or pulled-pork.
Pulled chicken with barbecue or Buffalo sauce is another versatile option. Mac and cheese and buffalo chicken dip are also easy to make in a slow cooker and can be prepared ahead of time. Other games day favorites include spinach and artichoke dip, queso, and chili, which can simmer for hours while you watch the game. Serve with warm cornbread or chips for a complete spread.
