Okay, folks.

One of the many things that didn't make it with us was our grand old crock pot. Therefore, we need to buy a new one. Do you lot have any particular recommendations?

We have this one, and we looooove it. The probe is key for the crock-potting of meats. The ceramic part comes out and it's easy to clean. You can set it by temperature as opposed to low/high which I find to be more precise and lowers the chances of burning or whatever. And you can just set it on a timer and split!

That looks like a good one.

That's what I have - I've only used it once, but it's great. The one bad part I found about using the probe is it cooked the roast perfectly, but then turned the pot to "warm" instead of "low", so the veggies were still like rocks. (Were on the bottom and everything, but still didn't cook well.)
