Slow Cooker or Crock Pot

So What Is The Difference Between A Slow Cooker And A Crock Pot?

Generally, these terms two terms are used to describe the same cooking appliance. On this site we use both terms.

However, to be more technical:-

A Slow Cooker has the heating element on the bottom. This means you may need to stir occasionally to prevent sticking. It will usually have a thermostat allowing a range of cooking temperatures.

Where as the Crock Pot has the heating element around the sides of the container. It will generally have a crockery insert, where you place the food. This insert is removable – making cleaning so easy. The crock pot also usually only has two heat settings – low and high.

All our Crock Pot Recipes will work as Slow Cooker Recipes, you just might need to give some of them a stir :-)

We tend to interchange the words Crock Pot and Slow Cooker.

So just because it says slow cooker recipe does not mean you can’t use it in the Crock Pot and vice versa.
