Slow Cooking tips! • Less tender, less expensive cuts of meat are better suited to slow cooking than expensive cuts. Remove excess fat from meat when possible before slow cooking. It is usually better to remove skin from poultry. If you prefer to brown meat or poultry first then this should be done under a conventional grill or in a conventional oven but do not brown the meat whilst it is in the crock pot. • Raw vegetables typically take longer to cook than meats as the liquid simmers rather than boils.
