Question by : What’s a “slow cooker”? Is it specific to a plug-in crock pot? Or, can i use a big, thick, deep iron pot on a stove top? It’s for a Paula Deen recipe beef stew.
crock pot. same thing. Slow cookers are usually big. Great for clow cooking food in the morning and doen when u get home, on low. I always cooked but learned to like crock pots for convenience. throw it all in and sit back. u can also set to high and warm. stews are good cooked on high 2 hrs or low, 4-6 hrs.
Its a crock pot. You can slow cook on your stove, but you have to watch it carefully.
A slow cooker is specific. You can convert it though to stove top.

You can use a pot with a cover on the stove, cook on the lowest heat.
