EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

When you strain the liquid in the cooker, set some of it aside. If the meat seems a little dry, stir some of the liquid back in.

Make up a plate of condiments, including red onion rings, tomato slices and Cheddar and Swiss cheese, so diners can dress their own sandwiches. Don’t forget the ketchup, mustard and pickle relish, too!

Make this recipe the day before your gathering and put it in the fridge. Reheat it on the stove just before serving.

The meat mixture will hold on your slow cooker's low heat setting up to 2 hours, with occasional stirring.

Loved this recipe!! made this for my 1 & 3 yr olds and they devoured it!!! i say there would be no need when it comes to "nutritional values" if you serve with a healthy side, which is what i do with most of my meals...if the entree is a little less healthy, serve with an extra healthy side :) i give it 5 spoons up!! :)
