Notes
For crispier peppers, add them to the slow cooker during the last hour of cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Freezing before cooking is possible; prepare the ingredients and sauce separately and freeze. Cook from frozen on LOW for 6 hours.
