C'mon, Definitly aint worth having the cholent taste like plastic in order to save some elbow grease. An easy way to clean it, is to bubble it up with water for an hour, and all the stuff stuck to the side will come off.
Any ideas of cockpits that don't stick ?
@helpme do you know what chulent is?
I find 777s are better than 737s.
My wife sprays the crockpot with Pam or something like that before she adds anything and the cholent almost always comes right off
How about one of these?
never tasted plasicIts also healthier
I know my pot. It is the same size top and bottom.
the balls help for hatmana (insulating)- but not for chazara (returning the pot after taking from it on shabbos)- a good thick lining with thick aluminum foil will take care of both. There is also shehiya issues- if it was not fully cooked before shabbos that you would also need the complete lining. (there are poskim that allow just the balls but R'SZA and others do not like it.
I need a good crock pot for chulent. I bought a new one and even on a low setting it burns. Any suggestions?
I use the chulent bags and have no problem with plastic melting in my chulent. I actually think that the bags can help with the burning also as you are supposed to put a cup of water in between the bag and the crock pot.
