6 Easy & Affordable Slow-Cooker Ideas (High Protein Recipes)

About this video

Kane shares six high-protein slow-cooker meals for autumn and winter. Each starts with a quick sear in a cast-iron pan using a fat such as bacon fat, butter, ghee or tallow, plus a little water. The ideas are bison or beef brisket, cooked two hours on high then seven on low; osso buco for eight hours on low, with Kane urging viewers not to discard the bone marrow, which she praises for its collagen and glycine; a whole chicken for about nine hours on low; beef chuck for nine hours on low, with optional vegetables or seasoning; beef, elk or deer ribs, seared briefly and cooked submerged for five to six hours; and chicken-feet bone broth, cooked 24 hours on low with an optional apple cider vinegar step, then strained and refrigerated or frozen.
