How to use the Crockpot
The Crockpot aka Slow Cooker is so simple to use and should be a staple in every home. There are usually only two settings you can use on a slow cooker. You can cook any recipe on low or high. If you are going to be away at work all day you should set it on low. Almost every recipe will require 8 hours to cook on low. If you are in more of a rush. Then you can cook your recipe on High for 4 hours. Every recipe might be slightly different but that’s the guide I use. If you do not know which crockpot to purchase.
