HOW TO USE YOUR SMART-SET™
SLOW COOKER
BEFORE YOU USE YOUR SMART-SET™
SLOW COOKER
1. Prepare your ingredients according to the recipe and place them into
the stoneware.
Before you use your slow cooker, wash the lid, stoneware, temperature
probe, and temperature probe housing in WARM, soapy water and dry
thoroughly.
2. Plug the heating base into a standard outlet.
NEVER immerse the heating base in water or any other liquid.
Note: Display will blink until you program your cooking mode. If more
than 10 seconds pass between button presses, the display will clear and
you must start again.
ASSEMBLY
1. Place stoneware into the heating base.
3. Select the cooking mode you wish to use from the 4 options below.
Note: Plug the temperature probe into the temperature probe jack

Important Information About the Temperature Probe
•
Temperature probe is ONLY for use with Auto Cook Mode. Make sure
it is inserted fully into the probe jack or Auto Cook Mode will not
function correctly.
1. Plug the temperature probe cord into the temperature probe jack on
the heating base.
2. Insert the temperature probe into the thickest piece of meat or center
of dish without touching any bone or fat.
•
•
Remove probe before cooking with other modes (they will not work
with probe plugged in).
• The notch in the stoneware allows the lid to close when temperature
probe is plugged in.
Do not remove probe from temperature probe jack while cooking or
Auto Cook Mode will not function properly. Leave the temperature
probe in the food throughout the cooking cycle.
NOTE: If the probe is removed from the temperature probe jack during
programming or cooking, the Auto Cook Mode must be reset. The slow
cooker will beep and display PROB OUT until the temperature probe
cord is plugged back into the temperature probe jack.
•
CAUTION: Use oven mitts to remove the temperature probe from the
food as it is HOT!
3. Press the AUTO button to cycle through and select pre-set meat
options from BEEF, POUL (poultry), PRK1 (bone-in pork), PRK2 (boneless
pork), CHIL (chili), or STEW.
4. Press the TEMP button to select LOW or HIGH.
• WARM is ONLY for keeping already cooked food at the perfect serving
temperature . DO NOT cook on the WARM setting.
5. Press the START/STOP button to start cooking.
• The upper display shows the pre-set meat selection, the lower
display shows the internal temperature of the food, and the
corresponding temperature selection illuminates.
• When the internal temperature of the meat reaches the safe
temperature, the slow cooker beeps once, the upper display shows
“SIMR,” and the lower display counts down additional cooking time
until the food reaches its optimal taste.
• When the cook time expires, the slow cooker beeps twice, and the
temperature shifts to WARM. The upper display shows WARM and
the lower display is off.

SOUPS
COOKING HINTS AND TIPS
•
Some soup recipes call for large amounts of water. Add other soup
ingredients to the slow cooker first then add water only to cover. If
thinner soup is desired, add more liquid at serving time.
MEATS
PASTA AND RICE
•
For best rice results, use long grain converted rice or a specialty rice
as the recipe suggests. If the rice is not cooked completely after the

suggested time, add an extra 1 to 1 / cups of liquid per cup of cooked

Trim fat, rinse well, and pat meat dry with paper towels.
rice and continue cooking for 20 to 30 minutes.
•
Browning meat in a separate skillet or broiler allows fat to be drained
off before slow cooking and also adds greater depth of flavor.
Meat should be positioned so that it rests in the stoneware without
touching the lid.
•
For best pasta results, first partially cook the pasta in a pot of boiling
water until just tender. Add the pasta to the Smart-Set™ slow cooker
during the last 30 minutes of cook time.

•
For smaller or larger cuts of meat, alter the amount of vegetables or

potatoes so that the stoneware is always / to / full.
Beans must be softened completely before combining with sugar and/
The size of the meat and the recommended cook times are just
estimates and can vary depending upon the specific cut, type, and
bone structure. Lean meats such as chicken or pork tenderloin tend to
cook faster than meats with more connective tissue and fat such as
beef chuck or pork shoulder. Cooking meat on the bone versus boneless
will increase required cook times.
or acidic foods. Sugar and acid have a hardening effect on beans and
will prevent softening.
•
•
Dried beans, especially red kidney beans, should be boiled before
adding to a recipe.
Fully cooked canned beans may be used as a substitute for dried beans.
VEGETABLES
•
•
Cut meat into smaller pieces when cooking with precooked foods such
as beans or fruit, or light vegetables such as mushrooms, diced onion,
eggplant, or finely minced vegetables. This enables all food to cook at
the same rate.
•
•
•
Many vegetables benefit from slow cooking and are able to develop
their full flavor. They tend not to overcook in your slow cooker as they
might in your oven or on your stovetop.
When cooking frozen meats, at least 1 cup of warm liquid must first be
added. The liquid will act as a “cushion” to prevent sudden temperature
changes. An additional 4 hours on LOW or 2 hours on HIGH is typically
required. For larger cuts of frozen meat, it may take much longer to
defrost and tenderize.
When cooking recipes with vegetables and meat, place vegetables in
slow cooker before meat. Vegetables usually cook slower than meat in
the slow cooker.
Place vegetables near the sides or bottom of the stoneware to facilitate
cooking.
FISH
•
HERBS AND SPICES
Fish cooks quickly and should be added at the end of the cooking cycle
•
•
•
Fresh herbs add flavor and color, but should be added at the end of the
cooking cycle as the flavor will dissipate over long cook times.
Ground and/or dried herbs and spices work well in slow cooking and
may be added at the beginning.
during last fifteen minutes to hour of cooking.
LIQUID
•
For best results and to prevent food from drying or burning, always
ensure an adequate amount of liquid is used in the recipe.
The flavor power of all herbs and spices can vary greatly depending on
their particular strength and shelf life. Use herbs sparingly, taste at
end of cook cycle and adjust seasonings just before serving.
