Helpful Tips
Whether you are a seasoned slow cooker chef or new to using one, I have gathered a few tips that are helpful to everyone! Cooking slow cooker recipes can save so much time and energy on cooking meals! Use these tips and make it super easy on yourself!
- More than one slow cooker: If you have more than one slow cooker, you can not only cook your main entree but you could have you sides cooking in them too! Then the only thing that you have to do is pull them all out of the slow cookers and eat up! No extra cooking in the kitchen!
- Different sizes: There are a lot of different sized slow cookers out there. The most common size is between 5 and 6 quarts. I like to have some mini slow cookers for dips and appetizers. Then, use a 6 quart slow cooker for my entrees and sides. You can even get an 8 quart one if you are feeding a large family or group!
- Slow cooker liner: If you want to make your life really easy when cooking slow cooker recipes then buy some slow cooker liners. These will make it so that you can just take them out after cooking and quickly just wipe your slow cooker clean. No more soaking or scrubbing afterwards! I’m all about easy clean up!

loved the receipies and they are so simple to make.
If you had to pick one favorite, which would it be? I’ve been invited to a Pumpkin Carving/Crock Pot Cook-off Party next week and don’t know what to make. I haven’t used mine for anything much more than pulled pork and beef roasts. Your post has definitely inspired me to pull it out of the closet, dust if off, and try something new. Thanks!
