Pulled pork - use Pork butt or pork shoulder - put on bbq rub and put in crock pot on low for 8 hours (sometimes we pour in a hard cider or beer) - when done shred the pork and serve - we usually add bbq sauce like sweet baby rays since not all our kids like bbq sauce

Is doing only crockpot meals better for the budget? I saw someone else do it, in December, just wondering if it is really helpful. Thanks

My kids love when I make Mississippi pot roast. It’s ranch mix, au jus mix, and roast. You can add pepperoncini and some butter, but low and slow for 8 hours and its devine. Ive use the same but for chicken instead.

The Family Freezer has great recipes! She’s on instagram and Pinterest. A lot of them can be made ahead of time and frozen for a dump and go meal.
