Slow Cook
The slow cook feature may be used to cook foods more slowly,
at lower oven temperatures, and is ideal for roasting beef, pork
and poultry. Slow cooking meats may result in the exterior of
meats becoming dark but not burnt. This is normal.
There are two settings available, high (Hi) or low (Lo). The low
setting is best for cooking foods from 8 to 9 hours or longer.
The high setting is best for cooking foods from 4 to 5 hours. The
maximum cook time for the slow cook feature is 12 hours unless
the oven control has been changed to the continuous bake
mode. This feature may be used with the additional settings of a
cook time or a delayed start.
Cooking and Preparation Tips for Slow Cook
•
Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking. When
using a single rack, place in position 2 or 3. Position multiple
racks to accommodate size of cooking utensils when
cooking multiple food items.
•
Do not open the oven door often or leave the door open
when checking foods. If the oven heat escapes often, the
cook time may need to extended.
•
Cover the foods to keep them moist or use a loose or vented
type cover to allow foods to turn crisp or brown. Cook times
will vary depending on the weight, fat content, bone and
the shape of the food. Use the recipe’s recommended food
temperature and a food thermometer to determine when
the food is done.
•
Preheating the oven will not be necessary when using the
slow cook feature. Add any cream or cheese sauces during
the last hour of cooking.
Food poisoning hazard. Do not let food sit for
more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result
in food poisoning or sickness.
