Yes, there are different sized crock pots. I seem to remember someone here mentioning a crock pot with several size options in the single pot, too.
And it is safe to leave it. I know of several recipes that take 7-9 hours to cook when set on low. They were designed for cooking while you were out at work, so working this long is in their design. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sisi Ben-Simon Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 7:04 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [CnD] about crockpots Hi all, I don't know much about slow cooking pots so this is probably a good place to ask. Is it true that they are quite big and meant for big portions of cooking? Is it possible to find smaller slow cooking pots? Is it safe to start the cooking early in the morning before I go to work and leave it unattended for about 7 hours until I get back home? I know I can time the cooking to 4-8 hours. I'm just not sure it is safe to leave the house while this thing is working. Thanks for any advice Sisi _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
