I love trying new things, especially when it’s a new easy slow cooker recipe, and it makes cooking dinner faster, and easier than before. And while I don’t usually buy prepackaged sauces, I had a chance to try Sweet Korean Barbecue slow cooker sauce from Campbell’s. They were looking for a chef’s perspective and I was more than happy to oblige.

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Campbell’s Slow Cooker Sauces for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

The sauces come in six varieties so you can cook up a whole lot of deliciousness for your next Tailgate Party!

• Tavern Style Pot Roast    
• Apple Bourbon Pulled Pork 
• Beef Stew 
• Southern BBQ
• Sweet Korean BBQ
• Hawaiian Pork

Did you know that Campbell’s Slow Cooker sauces are awesome for game day gatherings with friends? Meals with Campbell’s Slow Cooker sauces are delicious and so easy to make. Just 5 minutes of prep time is all it takes. Take the Game Day Great, Every Day Easy Challenge and experience it for yourself.

I love my slow cooker, not only does it free me up from the kitchen but the slow cooking process does a great job of cooking this recipe and many more!

Making this dish couldn’t have been easier. Of course being a chef I had to add my own little twist to the recipe by seasoning the pork and adding chopped onions, limes and oranges to the slow cooker. Depending upon the type of roast you use, your creation can be ready in 4-6 hours on high heat or 8 hours on low. The slow cooker frees up your day to work on the house or do a little shopping before the main event. What could be easier?

You can use flour tortillas or corn tortillas for my Korean Inspired Pork Street Tacos. Or better yet set up a taco station with both kinds of tortillas and any additional toppings you may care to add. Make game day a very happy day at your house with Campbell’s Sauces

Serve up these flavorful Street Tacos with your favorite sides, like my Korean Style Slaw and my Black Beans and Rice. Be creative and have fun mixing and matching flavors creating your own special brand of fusion street tacos. Just remember  “Campbell’s – Made for Real, Real Life” .
