Customer Cooker Slow Reviews
Excellent for empty nester …. or a student!,
This little cooker slow has everything you need: programmable crock pot, longer cord, three (*3*) heat settings, glass metal-rimmed lid, small footprint. As far as I can tell, it doesn’t overheat, even on high. I just made a wonderful roast in it: about 1.5-Quart Cooker Slow chuck roast (trimmed), 1 medium Walla Walla sweet onion, 2/3 can low-sodium beef broth, 2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce, and 1 Tbsp no-salt garlic/herb seasoning blend; brown the roast in a little oil, put in crock pot with other ingredients; cook on high for 4.5 hrs or on low for 8 hrs should do the trick; thicken the juice with a little cornstarch for gravy to serve over mashed potatoes — HEAVEN!!!
It’s the perfect size for 2-3 chicken breast halves, a small pork roast or a pork tenderloin or two, a nice small pot of soup, etc. You should get enough for a meal today plus leftovers for a couple of additional meals. Clean up is a breeze with the removable crock, and the exterior of the unit cleans just fine with a damp cloth. The small footprint allows for out-of-the-way placement on the countertop for cooking, and easier storage. I’m an older adult grad student, and this little cooker is going to get a lot of use this winter while I’m working on my thesis. Highly recommended!
Isn’t this just the cutest little cooker Slow?,
I needed a 1.5-Quart Cooker Slow for dips, and this unit has proved to be the perfect choice. Well made, inexpensive, and versitile temp control. It will fit in nicely with my two larger cookers. BUT, I’ve got to question all the reviewers that said it’s perfect for small families. How small are we talkin’ here? Like Barbie doll size? This is a tiny cooker. It will hold 3-4 chicken breasts, or one very small chicken. It would cook just about the right amount of oatmeal for two adults, but beyond that it’s suited for two adult sized entree at best unless you pack it with food and sit on the top.
Here’s a good small sized recipe:
Brown 1.5# of cubed pork chunks(shoulder or butt) and add to cooker with one medium sliced onion, 1 chopped jalapeno pepper with seeds, 1 tbsp salt, 1 tbsp minced garlic(or 4 whole cloves) and one can crushed tomatillos. Cook overnight on low. Fill tortillas and add chopped onion, sour cream, and cheese if you like. Enjoy.
