Ingredients

  • A tablespoon of butter, as necessary
  • Finely chopped one large onion
  • Two cans of cream-style corn, each weighing 16.5 ounces
  • Two cans of crushed tomatoes, each weighing 14.5 ounces
  • Two cans of drained white chicken chunks (e.g., Swanson®), each can weighing 5 ounces

Step 1

Begin by melting some butter in a skillet set over medium-high heat. Take your time to saute the onion in the deliciously melted butter until it turns tender, which should take around 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 2

Now, mix together the sauteed onion with the delightful cream-style corn, crushed tomatoes, succulent white chicken chunks, pork in barbeque sauce, beef in barbeque sauce, Worcestershire sauce, a pinch of black pepper, a dash of salt, and a hint of hot sauce in the slow cooker crock.

Step 3

Allow this flavorful concoction to cook on High setting until it heats up beautifully, which should be around 30 minutes at least.

Step 4

Feel free to garnish with some fresh herbs or a sprinkle of cheese before serving to elevate the dish even further. Enjoy!
