It is that amazing time of year when everything apple is in season! I love apples and have tried out lots of different ways to use them, usually with lean pork, as applesauce, and in baked goods. But I am loving this simple slow cooker recipe! It has tons of flavor and I promise it is just like taking a bite of autumn. I hope that you all love this fabulous fall recipe as much as my family and I do!
