Slow Cooker Dump BBQ

The surprise secret use for a slow cooker is authentic-tasting barbecue—without the work

Everyone knows that the slow cooker breaks down tough meat into mouth-watering, meltingly delicious dinners. With the right spices, sauces, and rubs, as well as a bit of secret sauce (liquid smoke), chicken, beef, pork, and more mimic their grilled counterpart—without the need to stand over a hot fire, worried as much about overcooking as undercooking. Dump everything in the crockpot and let time and the moist heat do the rest. These recipes boast five ingredients or less, from favorite mains to classic sides, including:  

Honey-Glazed Baby Back Ribs
Barbecue and Cola Ribs
Pulled Pork and Avocado Bowl
Smoky Glazed Chicken
Slow Cooker Bacon Baked Beans
