Handy Share Reasons To Get A Slow Cooker

Introduction

At Handy, we know that slow cookers have two seasons that they flourish in. One is the dead of winter and the other is the dog days of summer. The reason for both varies slightly. In the winter, you want to come home to a nice hot meal since the days seem shorter because the sun goes down so early. In the summer, no one wants to fire up the oven because it is just too darn hot. These are both very good and valid reasons to use a slow cook (or crockpot if you prefer), but they are not the only reasons.

Simply Slow Cooking

As we said above, there are some very good reasons to own a slow cooker and use them regularly. We also mentioned that summer and winter are great excuses to drag out the crockpot. But what if we told you that we have reasons for you to use the slow cooker all twelve months of the year? Well, we do, and we are prepared to share those reasons with you.

  • Fail-proof – If you are unfamiliar with how to use a slow cooker, the method could not be any easier. You simply dump all of your ingredients into the crockpot and set the desired heat level. That’s it! On a side note, the low, medium, and high settings have more to do with the amount of time it will take them to get to the proper temperature, not the level of heat that the unit will produce.
  • Easy nights – You woke up and it was dark. You went to work all day. Now you are off and it is dark. The only thing you want to do when you come home is to sit down in front of the television and watch your favorite shows. You have no intentions on standing over the stove for 2 hours to make dinner. You also don’t want to go out to eat because you are trying to lose weight. Enter the slow cooker. If you have the right amount of ingredients in the crockpot, you will be able to set the cooker on when you leave, and it will be ready for you when you get home. Some more sophisticated models now come with a delayed start or can connect to your Wi-Fi.

  • Abundance of recipes – No matter what you are trying to make, we can all but guarantee that you will be able to find a recipe for it on the internet. It can be anything your heart desires. Just type it into a Google search and in seconds you will be rewarded with a recipe. Then all that is left to do is to drop the ingredients into the slow cooker and you are off to the races.
