Slow Cooker Enchilada Sloppy Joes

View Recipe  • Print Recipe

Yes, you can cook ground beef in the slow cooker and no, it isn’t all greasy.  I used 90/10 meat and helloooo, on the stove top it cooks in the fat in the pan too so be open minded here :)  I strained it before plating and it was DEELISHH! This Slow Cooker Enchilada Sloppy Joes recipe was a huge success and we know you will love it too!

Do you see any grease?  Do you?  I told ya it wasn’t greasy.

Pair these with chips and salsa and your kids will think you are a rock star cook!

Of course this is the prep ahead version and it is kinda key in this recipe because you need to smash the meat around in the bag with the sauce to help mix it well.  It will cook better that way.
