I have watched SO many cooking videos on social media. Aren’t they captivating?

When I saw this one, I knew I needed to include MY version for an easy Crock-tober recipe that has a ton of flavor.

Feel free to make your own sauce or swap out the Italian sausage for burger for picky kiddos. But I think you’re going to like this one!
