Tips for Slow Cooking

• The crock should be at least half-filled for best results. If only half-
filled, check for doneness 1 to 2 hours earlier than recipe states.
• Stirring is not necessary when slow cooking. Removing lid results
in major heat loss and the cooking time may need to be extended.
However, if cooking on HIGH, you may want to stir occasionally.
• Many recipes call for cooking all day. If your morning schedule
doesn't allow time to prepare a recipe, do it the night before.
Place all ingredients in crock, cover with lid, and refrigerate
overnight. In the morning, simply place the crock in the slow
cooker.
• When choosing recipes for this slow cooker, look for recipes
that call for cooking on HIGH 4 to 5 hours or LOW 6 to 8
hours. Recipes calling for less cooking time should be checked
periodically for doneness.

Food Safety Tips

• Do not use frozen, uncooked meat in the slow cooker. Thaw any
meat or poultry before slow cooking.
• To store leftovers after cooking, do NOT place the entire crock in the
refrigerator since contents will take too long to cool. Instead, divide
leftovers into smaller containers and place into refrigerator.

• Some foods are not suited for extended cooking in a slow cooker.
Pasta, seafood, milk, cream, or sour cream should be added 2
hours before serving. Evaporated milk or condensed soups are
perfect for slow cooking.
• The higher the fat content of meat, the less liquid is needed. If
cooking meat with a high fat content, place thick onion slices
underneath so meat will not sit on (and cook in) fat.
• Slow cookers allow for very little evaporation. If making your
favorite soup, stew, or sauce, reduce liquid called for in original
recipe. If too thick, liquid can be added later.
• If cooking a vegetable-type casserole, there will need to be liquid
in the recipe to prevent scorching on the sides of the crock.
• If cooking soups or stews, leave a 2-inch (5.1-cm) space between
the top of the crock and the food so that the recipe can come to a
simmer.
• Never allow undercooked or raw meat to sit at room temperature
in the slow cooker. Once meat is placed into the crock, it should be
cooked immediately (unless prepping slow cooker the night before,
where crock should be placed into the refrigerator).
• Visit www.foodsafety.gov for more information on safe internal
cooking temperatures.
