Product may vary slightly from illustration
iNTrOduCTiON TO PrOgrAmmABLE SLOW COOKiNg
At last! A Slow Cooker pretty enough to cook and serve in…with a convenient place to keep
the mixing/serving spoon! This Programmable Slow Cooker can operate at LOW all day
or night, up to 20 hours... with an easy-to-read digital count-down timer to turn the appliance
OFF automatically. No more over-cooked slow cooked meals! The front and back locked lid
seals tight for spill-proof travel.
NOTE: When slow cooking on HIGH setting, it is very much like a covered pot on the stove top.
Foods will cook on HIGH in about half the time required for LOW cooking. Additional liquid may
be required as foods do boil on HIGH.

When the meat is tender, remove potatoes using a slotted spoon.
Mash half of the potatoes and return them to the stoneware liner.
