Re: Slow cooker

They are safe to leave on, that is their design. You've reminded me, I have some pork to make a casserole with so better get on to it!

Re: Slow cooker

Yes, UJ, and it was blimming fabulous! Left it on all day today while I went out sightseeing. Got home about 5, and turned it off. the rest is now cooling for putting in the fridge.

Re: Slow cooker

UJ, I could smell it in the communal hallway, as soon as I got into the building! Hope my neighbours were envious.

Now there's a thought Jan darlin' - continually cooking food which smells powerfully might persuade your recalcitrant neighbours to 'move on'.

Re: Slow cooker

I love my slow cooker or crock pot. Whilst my kitchen was out of action I cooked a shoulder of lamb in it for almost 12 hours.... OMG it fell off the bone and tasted divine. Got a massive thumbs up from him indoors too

Also good for risotto too

Tuppy darlin' - as a 'newcomer' you won't be aware of this, but I have a very good butcher near me who can get 'safari' meat (Bison, Camel, Eland, Kangaroo, Kudu, Ostrich, Water buffalo, & Zebra). All these meats make truly delightful casseroles in my slow cooker.

Agreed they were designed to be left on all day while people were at work, so have to be safe. Never heard of a fire due to a slow cooker ever. Unless they boil dry in which case that's user error.
