Comments (46)I LOVE my slow cooker! It's an old Rival, probably from the eighties, given the floral motif in country blue. It has a heavy, ribbed, earthenware insert that holds the heat well, and clean-up is SO easy, no matter what has been in it or for how long (don't need those new inserts!). It just has the two settings, low and high, and has a plastic lid. I can't even remember where I got it. I think maybe my mom found it in a thrift shop, and I think she gave it to me because she thought it was too big just for her. Anyway, I work long hours, and having a hot cooked meal waiting for me when I get home is a godsend. (Has anyone read Barbara Kingsolver's book, Animal Vegetable, Miracle? Her family has named their crock pot, "Betty Crocker," because she stays home and cooks all day for them! Tee hee.) One of my favorite things to make in it are pork roasts (either with teriyaki and pineapple for an Asian flair or with applesauce and onions for a Germanic twist--always browned on the stove first before adding to the crock pot). But recently, I made the BEST chuck roast ever--a Polish recipe with chopped dill pickles in it! Sounds weird, but it was HEAVENLY! Here's a link to the recipe and a picture (from my cooking blog): http://lindseysluscious.blogspot.com/2008/08/big-o.html And finally, the very best thing I make in my crock pot is a pasta sauce with braised short ribs that must be tasted to be believed! It is just FAN-tastic! Here's the link to that one: http://lindseysluscious.blogspot.com/2006/10/short-ribs-long-on-flavor.html I think slow cookers are going to become sexy again. ;-) Enjoy yours--Gina...See Morecrock pot,is that what this is?
Comments (40)Hi Sandy, Yes I am interested in what parts you have of the Dazey Chef Pot. I've had mine for 20 + years and it's great. I only use it for crock pot cooker. My crock portion just cracked. I have a suspicion that a family member plunked something down hard on it the last time it was soaking in the sink. Funny, I've been researching getting a new one and for every slow cooker you find, somebody has a problem. I came here to get some advice and found one of my old posts right here! It would be great to be able to just replace what I need or the whole thing. I have it set that you should be able to contact me, I think through the member page or something. Let me know. Thanks, Nicole...See MoreWhat small kitchen appliances do you have?
Comments (26)This is a neat thread -- I'm a gadget freak, but mostly the are hand-powered type. But electric... On the counter and used daily: Small microwave Can opener that actually opens tall cans [I have arthritis and manual openers are a literal pain to use.] DH's 2-cup coffee maker 2-slice toaster; why don't they make 3-slice toasters? Small toaster oven which I *never* use but DH does -rarely-I keep trying to get it off the counter and that reminds him he wants to use it. In a convenient cabinet and used at least weekly: 3 qt crockpot, the standard deep type. I'd love an oval shape that would be easier to use for lasagna or roasts. Bread machine, the one that makes regular-shaped loaves. I wore out 2 and killed one before this darlin'. Electric knife. Heavy-duty handheld KitchenAid mixer. I killed seven and severely injured another 5 in between my original Sunbeam (which worked well for almost 30 years) and getting this one. A mini-chopper. Location, location, location. Right now it's in a bad neighborhood-when it's on the counter it's used daily. Waffle iron -- this should go into the seasonal storage. In storage but used seasonally or often enough to be worth the space: 5 qt crockpot, another 3-qt would be more useful; 2-qt would be wonderful but are apparently non-existent. 1 qt crockpot, actually used fairly often but not enough to rate good storage space. Immersible blender- it lives in a worse neighborhood than the minichopper. Large KitchenAid food processor... if I had more counterspace, it would be out. Probably put it where that toaster oven is. Deep fryer [some day it will go into the yard sale box] Vittoria tomato saucer - I'd give up the food processor before I let go of this! Deli-style meat slicer; it was great for meats and cheeses, but now the littluns have grown up, it should go to the yard sale. A pot-stirrer. Naturally, after I got it, I discovered the crockpots are great for making jam and fruit butters without stirring. Vacuum packer for freezer bags -- not really satisfactory. This is the only appliance that I'm totally sorry I bought. Vacuum breadkeeper: a bad purchase because the seals quickly wore out. Not really worth the effort of fixing. Electric frying pan. I used it daily when I had an electric stove, but now I've got a gas stove and this pan should be in the go-box. Mini-frying pan, same as above. Dehydrator. Yes, it's used. Rice steamer. Takes 40 minutes; family can't tell the difference from 20-minute boiled rice, but this thing never burns the rice. I use it more when the microwave is dead - it's okay for re-heating vegs. Blender, used it when I had it; don't miss it now it's gone. Yoghurt maker, ditto above. I have wanted for years and can't find: the machine that vacuum seals cans. Hmmm, maybe I should look into those mason jars......See Moresandy_nan
