CORD USE
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of
becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used
if care is exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used, the electrical
rating
of the cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop

OOKING
For best results, follow these guidelines when using your Slow Cooker:
•Slow Cooker should be at least half filled for optimum results.
• Since the Slow Cooker is designed to cook over a prolonged period of time,
cooking for an extra hour or so on the Low or Keep Warm setting will not be
detrimental to most recipes.
• Certain foods should not be cooked for a long time. Foods such as dairy
products, pastas and rice should be added to the Slow Cooker during the last
two hours of the cooking cycle.
• When cooking vegetables with meat, place vegetables on the bottom of the
Slow Cooker and place the meat on top.
• When cooking frozen foods, increase cooking time accordingly.
• When preparing meat, adding a small amount of water to the Slow Cooker
is recommended to keep the meat tender. The leaner the cut of meat,
the more water is recommended. When using the Low setting, less liquid
is needed since there is little evaporation.
•Large pieces of meat and vegetables will cook faster if cut into small pieces
prior to cooking.
• If the completed dish has too much liquid, remove the lid and set the
Slow Cooker on High until some liquid has evaporated.
• While browning meat prior to Slow Cooking is not necessary, it may improve
the color of the meat.
•When making a casserole with meat, lightly coating the meat in flour and
browning it before adding to the Slow Cooker may help to seal in the juices.
•To thicken a casserole set the Slow Cooker on High and mix in a thickening
agent, such as flour and water. Allow it to simmer until thickened.
• For optimum results, the last ingredients to be added to the Slow Cooker
should be liquids and sauces.
•Little or no stirring is required when using the Low or Keep Warm settings.
When using the High setting, stirring ensures even flavor distribution.

OAST
1 teaspoon chili powder
1-1/2 teaspoon sea salt*
1/2 teaspoon cumin seed
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander seed
1/2 teaspoon ground paprika
4-1/2 to 5-lb. beef rump roast
1-1/2 cups medium or mild heat salsa
1 tablespoon honey
3 medium sweet potatoes – peeled and cut into thirds
1 small whole peeled onion
4 carrots peeled and cut in halves
3 ears of corn,
(husks removed)
cut into quarter rounds
4 poblano peppers, seeded
1 serrano pepper, seeded**
1 cup of canned black beans – drained and rinsed
Mix the first five ingredients together in a small bowl to make the rub.
Rub the roast evenly with the spice mixture and place in the Slow Cooker.
Mix 1 cup of the salsa with the honey and pour over the roast; reserve the
other 1/2 cup of salsa. Add the next 6 vegetables. Set the Slow Cooker to
Roast and cook for 8 hours. Remove roast and vegetables from Slow Cooker
place in serving platter. Add the 1/2 cup of reserved salsa and black beans
to the sauce in the pot and stir. Slice the roast and pour the sauce over
the roast and vegetables.
*If using table salt, reduce salt to 1 teaspoon. You may omit the salt.
**
The seeds and membranes in chili peppers contain most of the capsaicin,
the compound that lends them their mouth-searing qualities. Use caution
when handling these chilies. Serranos are hot enough to easily irritate
the skin on the hands and it can be painful if their juice comes in contact
with the eyes. Wear thin disposable surgical gloves while working with
hot chilies, and don’t touch your face until the gloves are removed.
If you do not want a “hot” sauce omit the serrano pepper or use only
half a pepper for less heat.
