What quart size do you currently have?

I like the oven set to 250 myself, but a crock pot is great for beef chuck roast or boston butt.

 

[Inori]

I got a crockpot a few months ago from my boss.  I love it.

I mainly use it for chicken and dumplings or chili.

[katt_goddess]

I am 'patiently' waiting for the days to actually get cool enough to crack out the crock pot and start making beef stew and chicken-in-a-pot to freeze for winter. I'll have whole weekends where that thing will be bubbling away on the counter and making everything smell like edible foods.

I got the Ninja 4 in 1 Slow Cooker.... but Crock Pot is shorter to say.

yeah i love pot roast....and i have this big ass one in the fridge that will fit in my crock pot....but it doesnt leave much room for all my accouterments...cause i can make mashed potatoes, roasted carrots and caramelized onions....but it tastes so much fucking better when you cook it with the meat 

[1pooh4u]

My boyfriend has been nagging me to use ours on a turkey breast....I can follow a recipe and shit but, lol....I dunno :catlol

 

I like the idea of setting it and just going to work but with my luck something funky will happen to the electric and I'll come home to a burnt out shell of an apt :catlol

I usually use a crock pot for barbeque, and by that I mean just shredded meat and BBQ sauce. If I make actual chuck roast I love the oven with the veggies in the big roasting pan.

really? i do bbq in the oven...same with chicken roasts....but when it comes to round roast...gotta go crock pot

::spin:: I would never leave an oven on and go out

 

So, in your opinion a crockpot is pretty safe?

 

I'm such a terrible cook though, he wants pulled turkey, I bet he won't ever again after I make it :catlol

why.....why is it on wheels

[Misaka]

why.....why is it on wheels

It's an indoor outdoor fridge

 

It's more likely to help clean underneath it

Remember clogged coils shorten a refrigerators life

I have that as well but as an upstanding freezer

Probably $2,000

It was retailing at 12–1800

Yeah I am getting a used beater for no more than $100.

 

I even have looked at upright freezers (because I can swap the thermostat with a fridge one to keep it at 34-36 degrees) but all the cheap ones used the cooling coils as the shelves, defeating the kegerator idea.

I didn't get that. If the crock-pot was kept on and hot, how did they get sick?

They kept cooking the pork long past any possible edibility. Even if it was kept warm, past a certain point that warmth would have only added to the decomposition going on. Pork is one of those meats you can't play with because it really likes it's diseases.

 

I would think the bigger issue with that episode is why Snot would be interested in eating pork products since he's Jewish.

I think we can all agree that the tbs episodes of American dad are turrible

That's how an uncle of mine died. His shorted out when he fell asleep/passed out drunk and started a fire. The fire didn't kill him, though. They got him out before then. He died due to the smoke inhalation. So, it's rare, but it is possible.

 

 

I love crock pots. Pressure cookers are pretty awesome, too.

  I find that a crock pot keeps more moisture in the meat for shredding. It makes saucing a lot easier. If I am doing a dry rub style BBQ I go for the oven.

[Chapinator_X]

I like putting the dope in the crock pot pot.

Actually, had a stew made from the slow cooker today.  It was amazing.

[Houdini Splicer]

No, pressure cookers are great. Oh, you mean my uncle. Yeah, it is, but so is breaking into your recently deceased father's house, twice, stealing everything of value, and selling it to fund your alcoholism. Karma's a bitch. Even so, he didn't need to go out like that.

of all the kitchen things that scare me...it's the broiler (or salamander) and pressure cookers...and hell I went to college to cook...there are just some things that unnerve me
