Crock-Pot Cook & Carry Owner's Manual page 10

• Cut meat into smaller pieces when cooking with precooked foods such
as beans or fruit, or light vegetables such as mushrooms, diced onion,
eggplant, or finely minced vegetables. This enables all food to cook at
the same rate.
• When cooking frozen meats, at least 1 cup of warm liquid must first be
added. The liquid will act as a "cushion" to prevent sudden
temperature changes. An additional 4 hours on LOW or 2 hours on
HIGH is typically required. For larger cuts of frozen meat, it may take
much longer to defrost and tenderize.
FISH
• Fish cooks quickly and should be added at the end of the cooking cycle
during last fifteen minutes to hour of cooking.
LIQUID
• For best results and to prevent food from drying or burning, always
ensure an adequate amount of liquid is used in the recipe.
• Ensure the stoneware is always filled a minimum of ½ full and a
maximum of ¾ full, and conform to recommended cook times.
