One of my favourite slow cooker recipes. Just dump all the ingredients in the slow cooker and let the slow cooker do all the work for you. No need to sweat your butt off the kitchen, this not fussy but impressive appetizer is the way to go! This is super easy, it is hard to mess this up.
A show-off that makes every gathering a steal from the gods! With tangy bbq flavour, a bit of kick because of the red pepper flakes and red pepper jelly, the sweetness of honey, and sugar, this one here is a real steal. If you want to spice this up a notch, feel free to add more red pepper flakes. Or less if you are serving this for the kids. And double the recipe if you need to. You don’t want anyone to fight over that last piece, do you?
