My neighbor from church shared this brilliant 4-ingredient trick of bundling everything tightly in foil. The savory juices soak right into the dough

2. Make foil packets
Divide the mixture between two large sheets of heavy-duty foil. Fold tightly to seal each packet well so the steam stays inside.

3. Cook
Place the packets in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2–2½ hours, until everything is heated through and tender.

4. Open and finish
Carefully open the foil packets, watching for hot steam. Stir gently to coat everything in the buttery juices.

5. Serve
Serve warm straight from the packets or transfer to a dish for easy sharing.
