What should be in your slow cooker while your meat is on the grill–as summer holidays come around the typical place we find ourselves is outside by the grill. However there are plenty of delicious foods that you can serve alongside that grilled meat that you can prepare easily in your slow cooker. Give these a try at your next backyard barbecue.ย

What should be in your Slow Cooker while your meat is on the grill

I don’t know about you but secretly I live for the side dishes that go alongside the grilled meats. I’ll take a tiny piece of steak or chicken and then fill my plate with lots of salads and sides. They are my favorite! I have lots of recipes that you can make for the 4th of July in your slow cooker to go alongside that grilled steak, chicken or hamburgers. You can prepare these dishes early in the day and then they’ll be ready for dinner.

What Slow Cooker Do You Use?

I use aย ย 6 quart oval Kitchenaid slow cooker.* I love this slow cooker.ย It cooks low and evenly. I love the medium heat choice because most slow cookers that Iโ€™ve seen only have the option of cooking on low or high. If youโ€™re going to buy just one slow cooker, this is the one that I recommend.

    I too enjoy your recipes!! Donโ€™t forget sweet or white potatoes on the crock pot for baked potato bar (lots of sides like chopped bacon n shredded cheese n chives n sour cream n butter etc) to go with your grilled steaks!

Hi, I’m Karen. I know that dinner time can be less than relaxing. Busy schedules and cranky kids and a hundred other things can lead to weariness when it comes to putting dinner on the table. I can help! I make homemade, family-friendly slow cooker and Instant Pot dinners and share the recipes with you.
