Slow Cook Guide
Guideline Tips
■ The slow cook program uses a complex series
of temperature cycling to obtain the best
results. For this reason, it is recommended
that the slow cook program be allowed to run
without cancelling or restarting. Restarting
the slow cook feature while it is in progress
may result in overcooked meat.
■ For juicy and tender meat, choose cuts
of meat such as chuck roast or a boneless
blade roast. Leaner cuts of meat, such
as top round, are drier and may need
additional liquid.
■ Use only glass and ceramic dishes.
Metal pots and pans tend to transfer
the heat into the foods too quickly.
■ Match the quantity of food to the size pan.
Fill the pan about 3/4 full for best results.
Too large a pot allows the steam to escape,
causing foods to dry out.
■ Always cover the pot with a lid
or aluminum foil.
■ A wide range of recipes may be used
in the slow cook feature. For best results
some adjustments may need to be made.
For smaller sized recipes, begin checking
at minimum time. For large recipes or when
doubling recipes, foods may be cooked
for longer periods of time.
■ When the slow cook feature completes,
the oven will automatically switch to “warm”
mode. If additional slow cook time is desired,
this warm mode may be used to obtain
the extra time.
FOOD POISON HAZARD: Bacteria may grow in food at temperatures below 140°F.
• Always start with hot food. Do not use warm settings to heat cold food.
• Do not warm food for more than 2 hours.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in foodborne illness.
