ANSWERS: 1

Yes, the slow cooker, a countertop appliance, cooks foods slowly at a low temperature -- generally between 170° and 280 °F. The low heat helps less expensive, leaner cuts of meat become tender and shrink less. The direct heat from the pot, lengthy cooking and steam created within the tightly-covered container combine to destroy bacteria and make the slow cooker a safe process for cooking foods.
