Notes
I don’t recommend cooking it on high in the slow cooker. It won’t be as tender once it’s done.
Storage: Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for several days.
Serving: There are quite a few ways to serve it – use it to make sandwiches or wraps, or serve it alongside macaroni and cheese, rice, mashed potatoes, potato salad, or another veggie or side that you like. See the recipe post for ideas and links.
