Crock Pot Spaghetti tastes just as good as regular spaghetti but requires way less effort! Simplify your life, and use this quick method to make everyone's favorite meal with minimal fuss.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the ground beef. Brown and crumble the meat with a spatula or wooden spoon. Drain the fat.

Spray the base of a 6-quart crock pot or slow cooker with cooking spray. Add the cooked ground beef, then add in the chicken stock, tomato sauce, basil, oregano, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir to combine.
3 cups chicken stock, 1 ½ jars spaghetti sauce, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, ½ teaspoon kosher salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Add the uncooked spaghetti noodles. Gently stir and press down on the pasta so that the spaghetti is completely covered by the liquid.
