Slow Cookers

[chrissysnow22]

Are such a great time and energy saving appliance.

How often do you use one?

I am starting to use mine more, I used to use it for making apple butter, but now I am using to make beans and alot of other things. I can drop something in in the morning and its done at dinner, so I can sew!

I use mine at least a couple times a week. Usually more in the fall, winter, and early spring. During late spring and summer we grill more.

 Thanks for the advice

Quoting ifbwife:

Spray it with cooking spray before you use it; that helps some.

 Quoting nmaxwell816:

I hate cleaning the slow cooker though.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

I just made beef stew in mine last wk. Chili will be on menu here shortly before winter is over. So I guess I use it at least twice a month.

Same.

I usually throw some porkchops in there with bbq sauce. Yum! I also do chicken with potatoes or roast & potatoes. I haven't tried making my own soup yet but I plan too soon.

Quoting AiW:

At least once a week. 

What is everyone's favorite use for it?  I usually do stew, chicken with marinara sauce or Italian dressing, occasionally chicken soup, a half turkey breast, or brisket.

I LOVE MY CROCK POT SLOW COOKER! I have used it a lot this month, sometimes I use it 3 days in a row.

been using it more.  Sometimes I put stuff in it after I pick my son up from school then I take him to activities and 3 1/2  hours later it's ready (small chicken breasts, things with cut up pieces of chicken and meat, etc.).  Some things I've made lately are:  stew, chicken chili, lasagna, chicken parmesan, meatballs
