[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They all taste exactly the same. Gross. No matter what I try - it has that "slow cooker" taste. UGH[/quote] Are you doing "dump" meals? The kind where you pack a bunch of raw ingredients into the slow cooker? If this is what you do, then yeah, you will end up with that weird metallic boiled onion taste to everything. You need to first brown/saute your ingredients before putting them in. You also need to cook for the correct amount of time. Very few types of foods need more than 4-6 hours on low. Crock pots are marketed as dump it in and forget it devices, but they really aren't. They are a great device when you want to take advantage of a moist, low-temperature environment to cook tough cuts of meat or dried beans.[/quote]
