2nd time making this recipe. My kids loved it! Do you think it will burn if they cook on low for 6 hrs?
I don’t think they will burn, but they may dry out!
I just made these last night for a party. I doubled the batch and it’s still all easily fit into my large crock pot. They were absolutely delicious and everyone loved them. I will be making these again
I’m so glad you enjoyed them, Jennifer!!
