Do you have to put liquid in them? Bought a bit of beef the other day and I want to slow cook it but not braise it.

Depending what your cooking you can add beef stock or a tablespoon of olive oil

Need some liquid, but only a little, about a cm in the bottom, and keep lid on.x

Depends on how you want it to turn out, I always make a gravy stock and completely cover the meat turns it very tender, all the fat dissolves and meat falls apart (Mmmmmm) if u just add a sml amount to the bottom it will dry roast it keeping fat intact and meat stays together more, hope this helps

Probably once upon a time but I've had it years and only done stews in it up to now.

Seal the beef in a frying pan. Then cover in tin foil, adding some chopped shallots & put it in the slow cooker like that.

I often cook mine with a gravy & add carrots, shallots & swede.
