Got a hunk of meat that feels like it could double as a doorstop? The slow cooker says, “Challenge accepted!” Toss in that tough cut, add a splash of broth and the magical ingredients, and by dinnertime, you‘ll have something that’s practically falling apart in deliciousness. Expensive cuts? Who needs ’em when your slow cooker can turn a $5 roast into a meal fit for royalty?

Ever buy veggies that seemed like a good idea at the time, only to find them wilting away in your crisper drawer? Rescue them with the slow cooker! It turns sad, forgotten produce into soups, stews, or the base of just about anything. Not only are you saving money, but you’re also avoiding the guilt of tossing out that bell pepper.
