Crock Pot Meals

Here is her review:

I bought my Hamilton Beach Slow Cooker last year and I have cooked many meals in it.  I love the look of the attractive stainless steel outside and that it goes with my other kitchen appliances. You can get it in white too if you like.  It has a removable stoneware crock like most other crock pots but this one is very easy to clean and will go in the dishwasher.

This crock pot is much better than others I have had but it is a bit heavier. I can still carry around it though when its full but I would not like to have to carry it a long distance.  It is a large crock pot, six quart in size, and is great for our large family as it cooks for us easily. It would also be good for parties and family gatherings because of the size. The oval shape is perfect for the type of cooking we like, especially roasts like whole chicken.

It has three settings that are pretty much what they say.  The  seal is a big improvement to the usual lid on other crock pots and helps prevent dripping especially when I take it to family gatherings and the handle comes in handy too then.  It cleans very easily and doesn't take up much space on my counter and that is where it stays.

On a negative I did find though was that I did have to adjust the cooking times a little bit as it cooks a little faster than the last one I had so just take that into account and check your cooking a bit earlier than the recipe says.  Overall I am very pleased with the Hamilton Beach Stay or Go Slow Cooker and it's a big improvement on my old one.

If you have a Hamilton Beach Stay or Go Slow Cooker whether it is the 6qt or the a smaller one please leave a comment on how you like or dislike about it and what you have been cooking in it as well.
