serve separately or add to the Slow Cooker during the final 30 minutes of
cooking.
• DO NOT use cooking pot to pop corn, caramelize sugar, or to make candy.
• Prepare ingredients according to recipe instructions. Place food into the
cooking pot. Do not fill the POT to the top with food.
• IMPORTANT! Your 10 Quart Slow Cooker can accommodate large roasts
and whole chickens; as long as the lid fits snugly onto the cooking pot.
• Trim fat and remove skin from poultry to avoid oily, greasy cooking liquid.
• Adjust alcohol volume in recipes. Because the Slow Cooker is sealed, the
alcohol in wine/liquor does not evaporate. A splash of alcohol goes a long
way.
• End with fresh herbs, a squeeze of citrus juice, fresh citrus zest, grated
Parmesan or other cheeses, or balsamic vinegar to heighten flavors.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Always make sure the slow-cooker is unplugged and powered off before storing
away or cleaning. Make sure the unit has cooled down completely before
cleaning.
1. Always unplug and allow to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Both the cooking pot and the tempered glass lid may be cleaned in the
dishwasher.
3. To clean by hand, wash the cooking pot and glass lid in warm, soapy water.
4. To remove stains and discoloration from the cooking pot, in a separate
large cooking pot, create a solution of 2 to 3 tablespoons cream of tartar,
lemon juice, or vinegar per 1 quart of water and bring to a boil. Using oven
mitts, carefully pour boiling solution into the cooking pot.
5. Soak cooking pot in the solution for 10 minutes. Use a soapy scouring pad
to gently remove the stains.
6. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
7. Wipe interior and exterior of the base unit with a soft, slightly damp cloth
or sponge.
Never use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads to clean
the base unit, as they may damage the surfaces.
