An integrated spoon and steam rack are thrown in, too.</p><p>We put the functionality of this slow cooker to the test by cooking a <a href=\"/recipes/venison-madras\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">venison madras</a>, which was perfectly tender and packed with flavour after four and a half hours on 'high'.

Here are a few questions you might want to consider.</p><ul><li><strong>Design:</strong> Are you looking for a simple, budget-friendly option that just slow-cooks (but does it extremely well) or something more versatile that sous-vides, pressure cooks, bakes and roasts too? Do bear in mind that the more technological the slow cooker, the higher the price.</li><li><strong>Size:</strong> With sizes starting at 1-litre through to a whopping 6.5-litres, choosing the right size for you is imperative. The smallest sizes are suitable when cooking for one or two. 3-litres to 4.5-litres (one of the most popular sizes on the market) serve four, and the large 6-6.5-litre models are super for families and batch cooking. It's also worth bearing in mind that the capacity stated on the sales blurb is the size of the bowl, not the working capacity, which can sometimes be half that.</li><li><strong>Space:</strong> A slow cooker takes up space on the worktop and in the cupboard. There are two shapes, the round and tall, which has less of a footprint, and the oval, which takes up more room but can be more versatile.</li></ul><h2 id=\"how-to-use-a-slow-cooker-3404211d\"><a id=\"HOWTOUSE\"></a>How to use a slow cooker</h2><ul><li>No liquid escapes from a slow cooker, so when adapting a recipe not specifically written for a slow cooker, reduce any added liquid by a third.</li><li>Don't remove the lid too often to avoid heat loss.</li><li>The inner pot needs to be at room temperature before you start cooking. If you've kept a slow cooker dish in the fridge, you must wait for it to warm up before turning it on.</li><li>Slow cookers vary considerably, so follow your manufacturer's manual for guidelines on temperatures and cooking times.</li><li>Rice and pasta dishes work best cooked on high for the shortest time possible. Always use easy-cook rice, rinsed well first – the more starch you rinse from the rice, the better the finished result.</li><li>Take time to brown your meat really well. Slow cookers tend to leach meat of its colour, so it’s important for appearance and flavour that they are well browned to start with. Flavours won't become more concentrated because the liquid doesn't reduce, so try to pack in as much flavour as you can.</li></ul><h2 id=\"-eccbc87e\"></h2>"}},{"@id":"/v1/contents/87282676","@type":"Content","type":"image","data":{"url":"https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg","width":2121,"height":1414,"title":"Delicious Looking Dinner","alt":"Pot roast, in a crock pot, resting in front of fresh vegetables.

As the meat requires searing before cooking, if we were able to do this straight in the cooking pot, we did so. We looked for three key qualities in our final stews: tender and succulent meat, well cooked vegetables that retained some bite, and a flavoursome, slightly thickened sauce.</p><p>We also scored the slow cookers against the following criteria:</p><ul><li><strong>Capacity and size:</strong> the bowl capacity and the footprint for using and storing in the kitchen</li><li><strong>Heat retention:</strong> how the cooker holds heat for safety on the worktop and whether the food catches or burns</li><li><strong>Ease of use:</strong> how easy it is to assemble and use</li><li><strong>Functions:</strong> additional functions on the slow cooker including browning, reheating, reducing and whether it is hob or <a href=\"/review/best-ovens\">oven</a>-safe</li><li><strong>Versatility:</strong> does the cooker make a range of dishes?</li><li><strong>Quality of material:</strong> the material and the construction of the machines</li><li><strong>Design features:</strong> the type of lid, handles, automatic warming, countdown timer and indicator lights</li><li><strong>Finished results:</strong> the tenderness of the meat and vegetables, the consistency of the cooked sauce and the heat of the food when serving</li><li><strong>Manual:</strong> how helpful was the instruction book and did it include recipes?</li><li><strong>Sustainability:</strong> excessive use of plastic in packaging was scored negatively.

Here are a few questions you might want to consider.</p><ul><li><strong>Design:</strong> Are you looking for a simple, budget-friendly option that just slow-cooks (but does it extremely well) or something more versatile that sous-vides, pressure cooks, bakes and roasts too? Do bear in mind that the more technological the slow cooker, the higher the price.</li><li><strong>Size:</strong> With sizes starting at 1-litre through to a whopping 6.5-litres, choosing the right size for you is imperative. The smallest sizes are suitable when cooking for one or two. 3-litres to 4.5-litres (one of the most popular sizes on the market) serve four, and the large 6-6.5-litre models are super for families and batch cooking. It's also worth bearing in mind that the capacity stated on the sales blurb is the size of the bowl, not the working capacity, which can sometimes be half that.</li><li><strong>Space:</strong> A slow cooker takes up space on the worktop and in the cupboard. There are two shapes, the round and tall, which has less of a footprint, and the oval, which takes up more room but can be more versatile.</li></ul><div class="ad-placement" data-count="9554" data-paragraphs-left="7"></div><h2 id="how-to-use-a-slow-cooker-3404211d"><a id="HOWTOUSE"></a>How to use a slow cooker</h2><ul><li>No liquid escapes from a slow cooker, so when adapting a recipe not specifically written for a slow cooker, reduce any added liquid by a third.</li><li>Don't remove the lid too often to avoid heat loss.</li><li>The inner pot needs to be at room temperature before you start cooking. If you've kept a slow cooker dish in the fridge, you must wait for it to warm up before turning it on.</li><li>Slow cookers vary considerably, so follow your manufacturer's manual for guidelines on temperatures and cooking times.</li><li>Rice and pasta dishes work best cooked on high for the shortest time possible. Always use easy-cook rice, rinsed well first – the more starch you rinse from the rice, the better the finished result.</li><li>Take time to brown your meat really well. Slow cookers tend to leach meat of its colour, so it’s important for appearance and flavour that they are well browned to start with. Flavours won't become more concentrated because the liquid doesn't reduce, so try to pack in as much flavour as you can.</li></ul><h2 id="-eccbc87e"></h2><div class="image chromatic-ignore"><div class="image__container" style="max-width:700px"><picture class="image__picture" width="700" height="466.2903225806452"><source type="image/webp" sizes="(min-width: 992px) 940px,(min-width: 768px) 728px,(min-width: 544px) 556px,calc(100vw - 20px)" srcSet="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=325,216 325w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=375,250 375w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=650,433 650w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=750,500 750w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=975,649 975w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=1100,733 1100w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=1300,866 1300w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&webp=true&fit=2121,1413 2121w"/><source sizes="(min-width: 992px) 940px,(min-width: 768px) 728px,(min-width: 544px) 556px,calc(100vw - 20px)" srcSet="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&fit=325,216 325w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&fit=375,250 375w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&fit=650,433 650w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&fit=750,500 750w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&fit=975,649 975w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&fit=1100,733 1100w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&fit=1300,866 1300w,https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&fit=2121,1413 2121w"/><img class="image__img" src="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/30/2022/02/GettyImages-136263168-1-4fcdb70.jpg?quality=90&fit=700,466" alt="Pot roast, in a crock pot, resting in front of fresh vegetables.

The smallest sizes are suitable when cooking for one or two. 3-litres to 4.5-litres (one of the most popular sizes on the market) serve four, and the large 6-6.5-litre models are super for families and batch cooking. It's also worth bearing in mind that the capacity stated on the sales blurb is the size of the bowl, not the working capacity, which can sometimes be half that.\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpace:\u003c/strong\u003e A slow cooker takes up space on the worktop and in the cupboard.
