Slow Cooker
 

My big sis has just bought me a slow cooker for my birthday, i make a lot of stews and home cooked food anyway but i just usually use a casserole dish and slam it in the oven.

She bought it me to save on gas, it doesnt use much leccy either so its really economical

what i was wondering was.....other than stews and casseroles, what else can i cook in it?


:D

If you google ' crockpot recipes ' you will find hundreds of recipes
I recall a thread where TinMonkey asked just the same question

Lol, I'm just this minute going upstairs to box mine up for the charity shop, along with a foot spa.

Mine was a Christmas present when I was a student at Liverpool in 1984. It was very useful, and made good caseroles whilst I was busy with a Leg O'Mutton sleeve. Since then it's been on a trip to London, Glasgow, and now to Ossy, and has never been used.

After not using it for quarter of a century it might be time to part company.

Is it a little one?
Mine is too big for my needs


PS vibrating foot spas are great used dry for foot and leg cramps - mine is permenantly plugged in ready at bedside

Re: Slow Cooker
 

No, it's quite big, and the slow cooker lifts off and underneath is hot plate thingy you can griddle on. It's in good condition considering it's age. It anyone wants it, or the foot spa (used once), if you pm me before Tuesday your welcome to them.

Re: Slow Cooker
 

It sounds the same size as mine
....forgive for even thinking that you might have a small one;)

Re: Slow Cooker
 

Big or small, all I know is that I haven't used it since the mid eighties.:eek::D

There is a small one in B&M down town, just big enough for two: I am thinking of getting one:

Re: Slow Cooker
 

They had them at B&M in Morecambe during the summer.
Darwendosser got one - £10
When I went and asked, they had sold out.
It looks good too -shiny steel - I may come out of hibernation to get one

Re: Slow Cooker
 

I've got one of the big oval ones, it's just gone on now, with broth in it. Will have it for tea tomorrow and freeze the rest. :)
