Need Suggestions - Need cooker w/ "Ceramic insert"

RinaRina · ‎03-13-2010

I found one on AMZN - a Proctor Silex described as having "removable stoneware".

Stoneware is the same as "ceramic", correct?

Anyone have a cooker they like with a ceramic inner pot?

Suggestions/Ideas appreciated.

Thanks.

Stoneware and Ceramic are the same as far as I know.... I've always had a stoneware insert because it's thick, well glazed and cooks evenly. It also washes up well.....

I didn't have a clue, so I looked it up on Google. You might find this interesting, I did. Has to do with amount of firings. (Always wondered why they called it "bone china", too!)

This is my favorite slow cooker. The picture doesn't show it but there are 3 different size bowls - 2, 4, and 6 qt bowls.The different size bowls make it very versatile.

I love slow cooking and still have my favorite book I was given when I got married! I forget the name of it but it's done by a lady named Mabel and there's a recipe in there for Chicken Ole that is just wonderful .....

Thanks for showing that versatile cooker... I have the Ninja (which I love) but with just DH and myself now I'll have to learn to cut the recipes or we'll be eating that one dish for a week... So I was thinking of downsizing.....

I've had a few crock pots and my current one is my fave. It's the Crock Pot brand and it has the ceramic liner that can go in the dishwasher. Not all of them can. This is a must on my list now that I have this one. Make sure your liner is glazed and removable. I find that the liner sometimes needs replaced before the unit itself.
