    My family (kinda not-quite-northern MN) uses key lime, mini marshmallows, wanna say cool whip, and usually mandarin oranges, but that’s a hit. And someone always brings a whole slow cooker full of meatballs that have been marinaded in there with grape jelly and possibly chili sauce (just the sauce). Those 2 things are so awesome and the meatballs are easy to cook

      Meatballs in a slowcooker full of bbq sauce is the ultimate in potluck cuisine. I sometimes make that shit just for myself

        Chicken breast in a slow cooker full of salsa works well too. Or get one of those birria bombs (it’s like a bath bomb but spices), a pork loin and some Mexican beer (Corona or Modelo is fine, something in that general style), all in the slow cooker, come back half a day later.

        If you’ve never tried, def give grape jelly+chili sauce a shot! There are a bajillion recipes floating around if you google (recipes, like ratios of grape to chili sauce), but I’ve made that for myself and the grape somehow makes it pop. It’s just good lol
