All about slow cookers

Slow cookers are available in a range of shapes and sizes with a variety of features. We tested these recipes using a 4.5-litre (18-cup) slow cooker. If you have a smaller or larger slow cooker, you will have to decrease or increase the quantity of food and almost certainly the liquid content for the recipes. The first step when using your slow cooker is to read the manufacturer’s instructions, as each cooker will differ depending on its features. If you want to speed up the cooking time, you can cook the recipes on High for half the time.
