After a few month hiatus …

Hi, all!

Sorry for the lack of slow-cooker recipe posts the pass few months. I’ve been a little distracted with … a smoker!! So much so that I’m in the process of revamping my site to include smoker recipes!

With the changes you’ll see some additional menu tabs at the top, which breaks the recipes down into meats, seafood, chicken, etc. However, if you don’t know what to make, but you know you want to slow cook something (or use the smoker), there are tabs as well. Those will be all the recipes categorized as either slow-cooker or smoker.

There is also a search bar to the right of the page that will help you navigate to certain recipes (i.e.: “chimichurri pork” should bring you directly there). If it doesn’t work, leave me a message and I promise to spend an ungodly amount of time trying to figure it out 🙂

Lastly, I’ve linked my Instagram page (@Kirstiesmokesmeats) to the website! So now, you can follow me on Instagram for pictures of my creations/adventures/mishaps/pictures of the beer or wine that I am “cooking” with and then come here for the recipe(s)!

Hope you like the changes to the site!

And so it begins …

Hey, all! Thanks for checking out my blog!  I’m pretty excited (and semi-nervous) to share with you some of my slow cooker recipes that I have developed over the years.

About four years ago, during my journey in good old St. Louis, I purchased a slow cooker because 1) it was on-sale during Black Friday and 2) I can be pretty lazy in the kitchen, so it seemed like a no-brainer … welp, four years later, here I am writing about how much I’ve enjoyed my slow cooker and ready to share my recipes with you all!

If you do make any of the recipes, let me know and leave some feedback! I’m always open to suggestions on making things better (or in this case, yummier)!

I’ll try to remember to post pictures before making the dish, while making the dish, and ideally after making the dish (but sometimes I get too excited and completely forget that last one 🙂 )

Anyway, thank you again for stopping by and I hope you find something you like along the way!
