Thank you so much. These are SO good and flavorful!

Thank you so much Fiona. These are so good and would be wonderful at an appetizer party. Yum!
These look so delicious! Definitely need to try them for my next appetizer party
Thank you so much Chellie. I love the slow cooker as well…it’s my favorite thing! These would be so great to give to kids – and the slider size makes you not feel guilty about eating a burger. It’s delicious!
The slow cooker is my best friend! This looks delicious. I love serving stuff on small slider size buns. The kids love it. I’ll add this to my list!
Thanks! The flavors in this are AMAZING and so easy. I never thought to use rice with this, but that’s a great option as well! Or quinoa. Yum!
Love the flavors in this. They look so yummy and easy using the crock pot. To make it gluten free just swap the soy sauce, chicken broth and buns to gluten free varieties. I bet it would be good with rice, too! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Anne. They are delicious and so flavorful. I absolutely love my slow cooker. It can make cooking dinners on busy weeknights so easy. I’m obsessed!
These look amazing! I love my slow cooker too.
I’m all about easy when it comes to cooking. It’s like my bread and butter, if that were a thing. And these are so easy and delicious!
Yes – I am all about a quick and easy dinner. Marinate and dump in the crock pot? Count me in! These sliders are delicious too!
Thank you so much! I do think you could omit the sesame oil and they still taste great. I didn’t try that, but there are so many other spices and flavors that I think it would still be delicious.
Love these sliders! They look delicious and “easy” is a bonus!
I’m a sucker for an easy dinner too! Especially one that is delicious and these sliders look yummy!
These look great! Do you think they could be made without the sesame oil and still have good flavour?
