Customer Review: Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Hamilton Beach Set 'n Forget 6 Quart Programmable Slow Cooker is wonderful! I have used old crock pots for years but wanted one that kept food warm without overcooking my food. This slow cooker is that and so much more! I have used the probe for a whole chicken and I put the probe into the deep thigh and cooked it to 180 degrees. I seasoned the chicken with some paprika and a little pepper all over and let it cook. The probe setting will cook it to your desired temp. and then switch over to warm, so it won't overcook. I got the most delicious, moist chicken I have ever tasted and my family loved it! The meat was off the bone, mouth-watering good.
I have cooked 1 lb of pinto beans in it. I soaked the beans overnight in a large bowl of water, drained the water into the sink and put the beans in the cooker. I then added fresh water to about 3/4 of the way up to the top, added two pieces of turkey bacon, (pork bacon if you use that), about a tablespoon of red chili powder and dashes of salt and pepper to taste and let them cook of high for 10 hours. I live at high altitude so lower altitudes need less cooking time for beans, but anyway, the beans were fabulous.
I also have cooked stew so many times and my family keeps wanting more of it. I just dump about a lb. of stew meat into the cooker, add water, again about 3/4 the way up and add a sliced up large onion, a small bag of baby carrots, (not cut up), about four large celery stalks, sliced into about 1/2 to 1 inch pieces, add about a half cup of ketchup, more if you like the tomato taste. I peel 4 medium to 5 medium size potatoes and then cut them into about one and a half inch cubes, not too small or they will cook too much and dissolve, or too big as they won't be cooked, but roughly one and one half inch cubes. It doesn't have to be precise, just use the rule: Too small-mush, too big-raw. Dump the potatoes into the cooker and add salt and pepper to taste. Everyone has different tastes on that so just use more if you like it, less if you don't. Cook on low for 8 hours. I just leave it alone and come back at the end of the 8 hours and it so good! We love the juice, to break up crackers in it. So easy! I love this thing!
I like that you can seal the pot up for travel and not worry about it spilling over. I like the digital feature but it took me awhile to push the right buttons. It wants it done a certain way or you've got to start over. I do make sure it is cooking right before I go, as I have read some reviews about it not being turned on when they come home, so I make sure it is on and cooking before I leave. I like that it will keep your food warm and not overcook it. It won't let your food get cold either, so that is a huge benefit for me. I do understand people's gripe about the handles having the the metal holders (that seal the lid) get in the way. I have learned to deal with it and it isn't a bother anymore. I am just glad it has handles so I don't have to touch a hot pot and the lid has a handle which I can pick up and it not burn me. A big plus from those old pots.
It is very easy to clean and I think the cooker is so nice looking, I just keep it out on my counter. It is silver and black and looks great. It isn't one of those things you have to be ashamed of owning but you will want to show it off! The silver does show prints sometimes but are pretty easy to keep wiped off.
I do wish it had a bigger probe. It isn't big enough to reach down to any small pieces of meat like a chicken breast, through the hole in the lid, so I put the probe into the meat via under the lid. It works for me, but I don't know if you can do this or not, since the directions are so brief. I just know I do it and it works, but a longer probe would be a wonderful thing. In all, one great cooker!
