It's no wonder why the slow cooker is your official weeknight dinner hero. It turns tough meats into tender slices of heaven and imparts loads of flavor into every meal, all with minimal effort from the chef. Instead of leaning on your usual chicken dish, consider one of these 23 Crockpot beef recipes.
They're low-lift, high in protein and essentially foolproof, even for newbie cooks. Like most recipes cooked with this handy appliance, they require some forethought and patience to come together (it's called a slow cooker, after all). But I promise they're all worth the wait, whether you go with slow cooker Bolognese, French dip sandwiches or deep-dish pizza.
