Deceptively simple. Utterly luxurious. What’s not to love about an unctuous cake of corn, garlic, butter, and Parmesan cheese? Crockpot polenta is Old World peasant food – or porridge – that’s made with a modern-day twist: your slow cooker.
Straight out of the crockpot, polenta is spoonable and creamy. This makes it the perfect base for BBQ Pork Ribs . Or – cut the polenta into sweet little squares, fry it, and pile high with Bacon Mushroom Meatballs in Fire-Roasted Tomatoes .
