Tips for making Crockpot Freezer Meals:
- Use 1 gallon, large freezer bags. Label bags with the date, recipe and cooking instructions.
- Lay ingredients flat in the bag for easier storage in the freezer.
- This 7-Quart Oval Crockpot is the only one that I use and has lasted for over ten years!
- Defrost meals in the refrigerator or place frozen into the crockpot. If the meal is defrosted, reduce the cooking time accordingly (subtract two hours for most crockpot meals).
- Crockpot meals can easily be converted to Instant Pot recipes using this handy guide from Taste of Home – How to Convert Slow Cooker Recipes for the Instant Pot.
- Store meals for up to three months in the freezer.
Use leftovers to make these delicious pulled pork sliders or easy pulled pork pizza!

oh man! That looks so great! Can i have dinner at your house! LOL
what do u think if I use this pork recipe to fill in flour burritos?
Yum!
I have bought this Costco pulled pork for years but have never cooked in crock pot. Do you follow the directions on the package of the pulled pork and heat pork in microwave for 7 minutes before you add to crockpot?
Nope, I just put it straight into the crockpot.
Can I cook this in the instant pot? If so how many minutes?
Im sure that you could but I dont know for how long, sorry!
