And then you're gonna cook it for, um, usually it's roughly two to three hours on a high setting, or, um, or a low setting could be three to four hours, depending on your slow cooker.
But do keep an eye on it, and, and the more you do it, the more you'll see how your slow cooker works and what works for you.
