I am a huge fan of party mixes. We have a little bit of everything on the site from cheesy to parmesan ranch to sweet and salty to smoky…you get the point. However, we do not have a spicy party mix….until now!
When I saw this Crock Pot Firecracker Party Mix in Gooseberry Patch’s Slow Cooker to the Rescue, I knew that it was the next party mix I had to make since my hubs loves spicy foods! It has a bit of a kick, but not so much that those sensitive to spicy foods can’t eat it. If you like things really spicy, you’ll want to kick up the heat a little.

Crock Pot Firecracker Party Mix Notes
- I used Sir Hamilton, my Hamilton Beach Programmable Insulated Slow Cooker. You can use your favorite 6-quart slow cooker.
- I know that we usually leave the lid off for party mixes, but this one calls for a little on, little off. It is okay. It’ll work!
- As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
