This is a dish that was served at a potluck at my sister's workplace. I think someone even licked the serving plate

Yes, this looks good. I don't have a pressure cooker, so I think I'd use my slow cooker instead. Thanks for the recipe.

Ya know Suzie, I was thinking yesterday that a slow cooker would work too. Knowing me, I'd stand there wondering which of my 3 pressure cookers or 2 slow cookers I should use
. When I get to canning/bottling I have my 2 large pressure cookers going at the same time. In my kitchen, if 1 is good, 2 is better and 3 is outstanding

LOL! I have several slow cookers, too. I prefer my West Bend models, though. I just haven't been completely happy with the Rivals. Seems like the Rival models cook too fast for my liking.
