Football season is now over and the playoffs are about to begin. The Patriots are once again on their quest to become the Super Bowl Champions. Parties, get togethers and good food are all about to become a big part of the upcoming social calendar.
The Slow Cooker is especially handy tool if you are planning to entertain, or to bring something with you to the next Pot Luck Game Day get-together. Using a slow-cooker makes it very easy to serve a group of people and is nearly foolproof. It allows you to spend more time watching the game rather than working in the kitchen, and preparing for the feast.
Here are 10 of the Best Meat Lovers Slow-Cooker Recipes that I have seen, or tried in the past that would be perfect for your next Game Day get together!
Beef Brisket
Relax and let your slow-cooker do all the work. Beer tenderizes the meat, and the onion soup gives it sweetness and depth, while the chile sauce gives it a good punch of heat.

Buffalo Wings
Use your slow-cooker to make super-tender, never-dry chicken wings. Just place the wings in your slow-cooker and cover them with your favorite sauce. Once they are cooked and tantalizingly tender, put the wings in an oven heated to 400 degrees Farenheit or place them under the broiler to give them a crispy exterior.
