Open in Pepper →Why Paleo & Slow Cooking Belong Together
Paleo cooking already skips the shortcuts (no dairy, no gluten, no processed sauces), so a slow cooker fills the gap by doing the work of tenderizing meat and building flavor.
Cooks on Pepper lean on bone-in chicken thighs, chuck roasts, and rich vegetable bases to hit paleo macros without babysitting the stove.
The result is a dinner that lands on the table hot, whole-food, and without a single dish in the sink between morning and evening.
Quick Tips
- 1
Sear before slow-cooking
A quick brown builds fond the whole pot rides on.
- 2
Skip the flour thickener
Reduce the sauce at the end or use a splash of coconut cream.
- 3
Use coconut aminos
A paleo-friendly stand-in for soy sauce with the same salty-umami hit.
- 4
Choose fatty cuts
Chuck roast, short ribs, and thighs stay moist over 6-8 hours where lean cuts turn to sawdust.
