4Slow-Cooker Korean Beef
PHOTO: ROCKY LUTEN; FOOD STYLING: MAKINZE GOREThis is not a drill: If you toss a pot roast (we went for bottom round roast, which doesn't break the bank) in the slow-cooker with a bunch of spices and soy sauce, you'll have killer Korean beef for dinner!

5Slow-Cooker Chili
Parker feierbachOur classic beef chili is already quick enough to make on a weeknight, but this slow-cooker recipe is even easier. Sautéing the beef and onion will definitely lead to more flavor, but if you want to just throw everything into the slow-cooker all at once, it'd be totally fine. Just be sure to top your bowl with plenty of Fritos!

6Crockpot Pepper Steak
Erik bernsteinPepper steak is a straightforward, savory sweet stir-fry that we think works amazingly when made in a slow cooker. The steak gets very tender, and it takes on some of the qualities of your favorite beef stew while still staying true to the original.

12Slow-Cooker Brisket

Unfortunately, many people have been convinced that making brisket is a labor-intensive endeavor. This recipe is here to prove that that's just not true. It may take a bit of time on your countertop slow cooker, but you barely have to lift a finger!

John Komar 14Crockpot Lasagna
Jon BoultonWe turn to the slow-cooker when we want to have something a little comforting made easy. So is there really anything more stick-to-your-ribs delicious than a cheesy, hearty lasagna? Though you might be able to pull off only using the slow-cooker for this recipe, we do recommend browning the meat and sautéing together in a skillet for maximum flavor.

15Slow-Cooker Bolognese
Parker FeierbachBolognese is one of our favorite recipes to make during the winter: It instantly warms you up and makes you feel sooo cozy. Pro tip: The vegetables will steam in the slow cooker, but they'll never sauté, so we prefer to get them a little golden in the skillet first to help coax out some flavor before hitting the slow cooker.
