Slow Cooker Recipes - Teriyaki Sliders
Busy days call for easy suppers and I don’t think supper can get any easier than these delicious Slow Cooker Teriyaki Sliders. Don’t freak out with the addition of crushed pineapple, trust me you don’t want to have these sliders without it. It adds that hint of sweetness that these sandwiches needs and cuts the saltiness of the Teriyaki sauce.
Fill up a big tray with all the sandwich fixin’s and let your family build their own sandwiches. Just think how excited they will be when you show up to the table carrying a big beautiful tray of ingredients!
I made a huge batch of this meat with the intentions of leftovers, but every last piece of chicken was devoured along with all the toppings. There wasn’t even enough left over for my lunch. Consider this your warning that you might consider a double batch if you want leftovers.
