Tips for Success
- Don’t Overcook: Check for tenderness around the 2.5-hour mark on high to prevent mushiness.
- Add a Citrus Twist: A splash of orange juice or zest can brighten the sweetness beautifully.
- Make It Ahead: You can prepare everything the night before and refrigerate it. Just dump it into the slow cooker when you’re ready to cook.
