How did the name of this recipe get so long? All those words seemed relevant at the time... and still do, I guess. The recipe itself, however, is extremely short. It's only two steps and three ingredients—can't beat that. 

It's embarrassing what goes into this crockpot (KETCHUP, YOU GUYS — THE SHAME IS REAL), but it totally works.

My husband is about to get some well-deserved credit for his creations like this Iranian stew.

This is the pot roast version of an empanada from Buenos Aires.

These Chipotle-inspired carnitas have been my go-to slow-cooker recipe for as long as I've owned a slow cooker.
