Slow cookers...will i burn the house down

[nappybrain]

being the sort of person who is completely paranoid about switvhing everything off when i go out i am feeling a bit nervous.....just got one for christmas is it really ok left on all day when we are out?

No you won't burn the house down. Yes it's safe.

When I first got mine I tried it out on days when I was staying in

I've had one for over a year, I've not used if because I worry about this. How bad are we!!

If you leave your boiler on while you go out and feel ok about that then you should feel ok about leaving the slow cooker on. It is the same concept behind both.

I think slow cookers are the best invention ever. It means you can make dinner in the morning when you have more energy. And you can use cheap cuts of meat because they become really tender after being slow-cooked all day.

Good luck with it!
