Inspired by the air fryer thread.

I bought two months ago. I so wish I had done it before. It's fabulous. I did a slow roast beef the other day. Yum!

Use mine for so much. Couldn’t be without it! At least 4 out of the 7 meals a week go in it.

Joints of meat, curries, stews, chilli, lasagne, gammon, pulled pork

Rice pudding is lovely. You don't get the nice crispy skin though unfortunately

Slow cooked lasagne is unbelievable.

Also use fillet steak and cook it in gravy and serve it for a Sunday roast.

Genuine question, how do you do lasagne in the slow cooker?

"Genuine question, how do you do lasagne in the slow cooker?"

Just how you would normally make it but layer it in the slow cooker and out on for about 4-5 hours.

The slow cooker was a great purchase. I use it a good few times a week. I cooked a Turkey leg in it today

I actually tried cooking a whole chicken in mine last week, just put some chopped veg in the bottom so it doesn’t stick, add a little oil and herbs/seasoning and leave for about 4 hours, it was really good

Beef shin. Bought initially because it was literally the only meat at the supermarket, it tasted superb, so nice that I then bought a more expensive cut and did a similar stew. Big mistake, beef shin just tasted so much better. Ok, need took a long time, bit taste is superb.

Ok, I won't tell you how I made Nutella & Ferrero Rocher cheesecake, and Lotus Biscoff fudge in my slow cooker, but I 'could' send you pics of them

Slow cooked Bolognese is sublime. Just cook spaghetti when your ready. Theres actually a slow cooker recipe website, even the bbc goodfood site, or Tesco realfood has a section devoted to slowcookers.

Also, probably not environmentally friendly, but the slow cooker liners are really good. We started buying them because our pot had a crack in it and it seemed a shame to throw it away because it still worked, a liner means we can still use it and has the bonus of not having to scrub it clean after

The slow cooker I have has a metal pot which can be used for browning meet on the hob.

I've got some short ribs in the freezer. Perhaps I'll turn them into a stew.
