A Divided Crock Pot

 It seems weird that I'm this excited about a new crock pot. Did I NEED a new crock pot? No. But, I was thinking I wanted a smaller crock pot. I have two and there may be a third one in the garage, but they're the bigger 7 quart or 6.5 quart. They're heavy and if I leave it on the counter, which I would do if I was using it every day, they take up a lot of room. Otherwise, it sits on the shelf in the sun room and I have to keep getting it out and putting it back. I found one at Amazon that was 2.5 quart and for most things I cook, that would be fine. I had been looking at it and tonight, I saw this one:


The blurb at Amazon says "Cook multiple recipes at one time, with dual pot temperature and cook functions, including slow cook, sear/saute, bake, rice/steam and keep warm."

Today I needed rice for the butter rice. I could have used the rice cooker function. Often - real often - I'm steaming carrots or broccoli or cauliflower for our vegetable. I could do that in this one pot.

Each side is supposed to be 3.7 quarts. It's 12.25" wide, 18" long and 9.25" high so it's bigger than it looks.

It should be here Sunday. I should not be this excited about a crock pot!!

  3. It should arrive tomorrow and if it gets here early enough, I'll cook something and share my thoughts. If not, it will be probably Tuesday or Wednesday before I have a chance to use it.
