hey :wave:

so as it's getting cooler now, im wanting warm foods, and been looking at the slowcooker section and all the fab recipes there, i think i need to get me a slow cooker!

so, whats the best one to get? I dont want to spend over $100 but I want something that will last and not cr*p itself after a month or two of use!

TIA!!

I love mine (couldn't tell you what brand though)

The only thing i I'd get a bigger one next time.
It's only 3 litres and it's just not quite big enough sometimes. It's OK for curries and stews (though I tend to over fill it!) but for roasts and lamb shanks and ribs and whole chickens, it's just a bit small.

If I'm slow cooking I like to make heaps and freeze a few meals too.

I've got a Ronson as well and it's fab. I would also get a 5L or 6L so you can freeze extra portions.

We make a fantastic chicken curry in it and it's also good for roasts.

They make the house smell so delicious during the day too :chef:
