I'm guessing it is about 16 y.old at least....no way new...it has a fryer thing that the crock sits in....so you can deep fat fry or use as a crock. Haven't used the darn thing in a L O N G time....and the directions...well what box could that be in???? :rolleyes: Guess I should of set it pretty high to bubble then turned it back down...I may be eating at 2am or tomorrow for breakfast.

yay! thank you guys! i love my crock pot too! saves time and keeps my kitchen cooler in the summer! add to crock 2 cans of cambells beef consomme, then 2 cans of water. beef bullion cubes- for each cube add 1 soup can of water. add enough to make as much soup as you want. then add bite size chunks of beef. low for a few hours. we always ate it with spaghetti noodles in our bowls. anyhow that's all i can think of off the top of my head. i'll think of more later i'm sure.... LOL

Boy!!! are there ever some great recipes for the Crock Pot, Soon I'll be retiring to part time, and I'm going to try some of these out, they all look so delicious, I haven't been around much, have been very busy, but I do stop in ever so often.
I was wondering if I could use some of these recipes on another forum, and put your name, and where it came from next to the recipes. I have a website, that's still under construction, and want to add a cook book there, and add some of your recipes there also. I already have a link to the 'Gardener's Forun' on there.

Thanks for all of the delicious sounding recipes for the crock pot. The "crock" and I are old friends as I did 90% of the cooking when my sons were growing up and my ex-wife was off going to school or working or whatever. Someone asked about the temperatures of the crock pot: they differ from brand to brand and type to type. I have three crocks and they all cook at different temps. "Low" on a newer one is like "High" on my old Rival. Personally, I prefer the ones which cook slower. If I want something cooked faster (such as meat), I just brown it first. Now that summer is here, the crock is great for using up lots of garden veggies that otherwise might go to waste. If the counter is getting full of onions, peppers, summer squash, zuchini, tomatoes, sweetcorn, potatoes, etc., just chop/slice and throw into the crock with some of your favorite seasonings and a little water (or wine, red wine vinegar, soy sauce, chicken broth, beer?) and forget it for 6-8 hours. You may need to boil the taters for a while to soften them or slice very thin so they get done. Same with the carrots. Or shred them. I can't grow them in my garden but I like to add mushrooms. Be brave and experiment. You will not be disappointed.

I sadly put my old crock pot to rest and bought a new one a few days ago.....the old one had a non stick interior and it was all peeling off  ....so the new one is a stoneware insert that you can remove, and it's really nice--6 qt, stainless steel and black......I used it tonight for my sisters BD party for meatballs.....buy a bag of meatballs, or make some and then mix equal parts of grape jelly and ketchup together.....OMG, I HATE grape jelly and thought it would be disgusting, but this is the second year I've made them now and everyone loves them including me
