What Should I Look For in a Slow Cooker?
The best way to decide which Slow Cooker or Crock Pot will work best, is to purchase one sized for your needs.
- 2 quart Slow Cookers work great for making Crockpot Dip Recipes.
- 4 quart Slow Cookers are ideal if you are just preparing meals for 2…. or you want to make hot drinks.
- If you plan to prepare meals for a family of 4 or 5, consider a 5.5 – 6 quart Slow Cooker.
- If you love to make pork ribs, go big and get a 7 – 8 quart Slow Cooker.
What Can You Use a Crockpot For?
You’ve probably already guessed that Crockpots are a really convenient and easy way to prepare Chicken, Pork and Beef. Well guess what, Crockpots are also the perfect small appliance to use when making pasta, vegetables and desserts, too! You won’t believe how many incredible dishes you can make with just 5 ingredients!
Are Cheap Slow Cookers Any Good?
Yes, they sure are! Over the years, I’ve collected name brand and off brand slow cookers, and have never noticed a difference. Slow Cookers are generally very inexpensive, unless you decide to pay more for premium features like a searing function, timer, warming function or WiFi connectivity.
As a Frugal Girl, I LOVE owning such a useful, inexpensive kitchen appliance!
