The slow cooker has remained a popular appliance for a reason. It is the best for keeping food warm, helps ease the congestion on the stove and oven when big meals are being cooked, and is a superb tool for preparing meals in advance.

Converting Recipes from High to Low

Not sure how to convert recipes from high to low or vice versa?  A helpful hint is to have the pot finished cooking just around the time it is going to be served and always make sure that the ingredients are thawed before cooking.

For timing it just right here is a handy conversion chart:

• High (4-6 hours) - Low (1-2 hours)
• High (5-7) - Low (2-3)
• High (6-8) - Low (3-4)
• High (8-10) - Low (4-5)
• High (12) - Low (6)
