Slow cooker for induction hob?

5 replies

I have just returned a faulty slow cooker to Lakeland and am looking for a replacement. Are there any slow cookers that can be used on an induction hob? Lakeland have discontinued theirs and I can't find any others. Crockpot also seem to have discontinued the one they did that was suitable for an induction hob. Can anyone help?

Is the point of a slow cooker not that you DON'T use your cooker?

I like to be able to brown the meat, onions etc first, handy option to be able to do that all in the same pot

A multicooker will be able to do this, like an Instant Pot or Ninja. You can saute first and then slow or pressure cook.

Thanks, I have been looking at these too. My old slow cooker was just right for what I wanted, shame it didn't last long

I think multi cookers seem to be taking over from hob safe insert slow cookers. Not as straightforward, but you can always use a frying pan, deglaze with stock etc and transfer to your slow cooker using a conventional slow cooker. It will certainly be a lot cheaper to buy than a multi cooker.
