Quotecrock pot is great for heating pulled pork

What model did you get LS? My slow cooker has seen better days and is in need of replacement.



Hi Manx, well originaly i got this one from Costco, and was very impressed with it, but about the third time i used it, it started acting up, (cutting out)
Got it exchanged, but the replacement did the same, so again replaced, and you've guessed it, still no good, so got a refund.
Maybe it was a duff batch?, but i gave up with it, Costco were doing them for £29.99, Amazon u.k. were also selling them, but haven't seen them in many shops?

Ok, so we decide to try the Morphy Richards, very similar to the Crockpot:

We now have two (his and hers) lol!

This is mine, plain and simple, His:

This is the posh version , Hers:

I must say Manx, both of these models have had a lot of use here, and i can recommend either, big capacity, and very reliable.
I've noticed with a lot of modern slow cookers, that the initial cook cycle has a higher temp than what has been set, this is a safeguard against bacteria in the early stages of cooking, so may take a bit of getting used to, compared to older models.

Anyway as i say, both these models are very good

Thanks LS, I was looking at the Morphy Richards ones earlier and that seems to be the way to go. Thanks for your help.
