Quick Tip

All-Clad 6.5-Quart Slow Cooker with Ceramic Insert
Because different slow-cooker models cook at different rates, the total time is presented as a range. Check for doneness at the low end of the range (but not before, or the escaping heat will slow the cooking). If the food is not done, continue cooking to the end of the suggested range.
