Product Description

Perfect for entertaining at home or taking on the road

Slow cookers are great for cooking chilis, soups and stews, but these "one-pot" meals are not the only things that slow cookers do well. They are also perfect for making side dishes and dessert, especially when your main oven is full, and they are great for foods that are not naturally tender, such as inexpensive but flavorful meat cuts. If you choose cuts such as chuck roast, pork butt, short ribs or chicken thighs, you won't be disappointed with the results of low and slow cooking. Like braising, slow cookers tenderize meat gradually as it cooks. Check out the recipes at HamiltonBeach.com that were developed and tested by the culinary experts in the Hamilton Beach Test Kitchen.

Clip-locks, secure lid and provide a tight seal for spill-resistant travel

The Stay or Go Slow Cooker offers thoughtful features that make traveling with your food to a potluck or holiday party a breeze. The clip-locked lid has a tight seal for spill-resistant travel. The full-grip handles make carrying your dish to and from the party very easy. Back home, the stoneware removes for easy cleanup in the dishwasher.

Product Feature Benefits:

Clip-tight sealed travel lid locks in place to help prevent messy spills
Bring 6 quarts of hot food to potlucks or parties anytime
Perfect size for 6 lb. chicken or 4 lb. roast
Removable stoneware and glass lid are dishwasher safe for easy cleanup

Great Crock Pot and Recipe!

Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2015

Color: MetallicSize: 6 quartsVerified Purchase

One of the best products to cook food with, and this Hamilton Beach does it very well. Try my favorite (and my kids) recipe.. so simple! Get a large 4-5lb Chuck Roast, three cans of Campb. Beefy Mushroom soup, and a large white onion from your local grocery. Heat up an iron skillet nice and hot! Sear both sides for about two minutes. Put two cans of the Beefy Mushroom soup in the bottom of your New Crock Pot. (NO WATER) Place the seared roast in, on top of the soup, quarter the onion an place them to the sides of the roast. Black ground pepper the roast (NO SALT). Place the last can of soup on top. This needs to start early and cook slow on Low, all day, about 10-11 hours. It's that simple! Do not add water.. the meat will contain water that will cook out. The soup ( having enough sodium/salt in it) makes a wonderful gravy! Just cook up a batch of Egg Noodles, or Rice to go with it! You will Love it. You can add Mushrooms and/or some Chipotle sauce to spice it up. I would not add carrots or potatoes to the crock pot, as it will distort the flavor of the roast. You can cook those on the side if wanted.

Busy people need one of these!

Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2016

Color: MetallicSize: 6 quartsVerified Purchase

I love this thing! I don't cook more than a couple times a week because of my schedule so I wanted to see if a slow cooker would allow me to eat a little better. This far exceeded my expectations. I love slow cooked, fall off the bone pork, chicken, beef etc. I used to cook meats in a convection oven at low temps fro several hours and got good results. The slow cooker in contrast is so nice because I can throw everything in there, put it on low and go to bed. At lunch time the next day, it is ready to eat. I like that cook time is not very critical once you meet the minimum. If I get tied up at work and come home an hour later, no problem, the slow cooker doesn't destroy the meal. What a perfect fit for a busy life style. I no longer have to sacrifice a good quality meal because I am too busy to cook it. Now I can chop and prep when I have the time, and toss it all in there and turn it on 8-10hours before I am ready to eat it. Simple!

I had one of these crock pots already and wanted another one, I tried to buy the exact same but the only difference is there is no light when it’s on and the handles aren’t as heavy duty as the last one. Other then that it works fine!

Nice slow cooker

Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2016

Color: MetallicSize: 6 quartsVerified Purchase

This is our second purchase of this model cooker. The first was a great slow cooker until we dropped the crock and broke it. A new crock costs about the same as a new cooker, so we just bought a new one. The lock down lid is a great feature and slightly improved over the old one in ease of use.

Update

The cooker is still working, but the light stopped working within the first year. I asked HB for a replacement under the warranty. They would honor it. All I had to do was cut off the plug, mail it in and pay return shipping. That all added up to about the cost of a new one so I decided to just keep using it without a light rather than be without one for a few weeks. Forget the warranty.

From beans to BarBQ, to hot dips, this one will do it all.

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2018

Color: MetallicSize: 6 quartsVerified Purchase

Works like a charm, high temp will almost boil, low is good, and keep warm keeps it at a good eating temp. The travel hooks for attaching the lid took some getting used to as they are almost but not quite in the way. On the bright side, I don't have to keep up with the giant o ring the older model came with for this purpose.

perfect for a spaghetti lover as me

Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2014

Color: CopperSize: 6 quartVerified Purchase

I have only used this cooker once for a boneless leg of lamb that came out perfectly, and with so much food in refrigerator and freezer I will not be needing it for quite a while. I do have over four dozen recipes I had copied out of the Taste of Home Slow Cooker Cookbook I gave to my sister, including recipes for my own spaghetti sauce, perfect for a spaghetti lover as me. I did find the color to be not quite a coppery as the picture made it look, but I decided that was inconsequential as the cooker itself was in perfect shape with an easy-to-use guidebook and I am sure this cooker and I will get along. If we don't, I will update this review.
