As an avid cooker and lover of excellent food I have found that my best friend in the kitchen is my slow cooker. The most amazing thing about today’s crock pots is how easy they are to use for beginner cookers. You would be amazed at how fantastic tasting simple dishes such as spaghetti and macaroni and cheese taste when prepared in a crockpot instead of the traditional pot and pan method. Even though they are simple to use, it is still important to understand a few basic facts when it comes to how crock pots work.
Before you decide to purchase a crockpot you should already have an idea of how you will be using it. Since most slow cookers function better when they are filled between halfway to two-thirds of the way full it is vitally important that you know the portion sizes you plan to serve from the recipes you will be making using your cooker.
Smaller size crockpots in the 2 and 4 quart range work well for serving a single person or a couple. Larger crock pots are better suited to serving bigger meals such as large family meals. I have a family of four and we routinely use a 6 quart slow cooker to make our mouth-watering recipes with no problems.
Other features to consider when trying to decide which cooker to purchase include the heating element, the liner and the shape and design. For example, an oval-shaped cooker is better suited to chickens, turkeys and larger sized pot roasts. I personally prefer a heating core that is on the sides of the cooker and the bottom. This allows for a more evenly and properly cooked meal which results in that special taste and tenderness that only a slow cooker can provide.
