Chitterlings aka chittlins made easy in the Crock Pot!

Hey cousins! In this post I’m going to show you how to make chitterlings in the slow cooker. Be sure to watch my video tutorial below, so that you can see how I clean and soak the chitterlings.
Note: In my previous chitterling video I used potatoes to help mute the smell of the chittlins. No need to use potatoes y’all. I’ve been using just apple cider vinegar, and it does just fine!

Thank you
Love some chitterlings!!! A lil hit sauce or mustard, yes mamm. Love how you showed to clean them. Thanks for another home run recipe!
If I’m making five 5lb do I cut evening in half?
Yes.
Hi Rosie,
Thank you for sharing this recipe. You are blessing to self-taught cooks I have a few questions:
1) How long do you soak the chitlins in the water + apple cider vinegar mix before removing the skin?
2) Any issue with slowcooking them on low for 12 hours vs high for 6 hrs?
3) I purchased the Queenella Triple Cleaned chitlins, do they require removing the skin before cooking them?
I soak them for at least 30 minutes before cleaning. Even though you have ” clean” chitterlings, I would still clean them. You can slow cook them for 12 hours on low 😉
You know I’ve NEVER even considered using my slow cooker for chitterlings! This just changed the game! It’ll be easy to add them to the menu for Thanksgiving now! And P.S. I prefer using vinegar as well. It takes a little of that porky taste out too!
Your website is my go to every year. Helps me with my ideas for holiday dinners. My family definitely enjoy.
Thank you for always sharing friend.
Thanks for coming back!
Good gawd… these are Amazing !
I have white fatty blobs on my chitterling while cooking in slow cooker… is there a reason for this?
Unfortunately, it sounds like they should have been cleaned more.
Great, simple recipe
DELICIOUS I followed your recipe to the letter! My family loved them. I was also super happy not to stand over the stove watching them! Thanks
Thank you my first ever batch of chittering was perfect
Easy and not many ingredients, easy to make and this will be first time cooking them. Your recipes makes me comfortable to try and not too ingredients,
That’s great! I try my best to keep it simple.
To cut the smell of chitterlings while cooking how much apple cider vinegar do you use? I’m making them for Thanksgiving this year.
Hi Debbie. To cut the smell, you have to really clean the chitterlings. I did a more detailed cleaning in this post
I’m gonna try it right now
