6. Stick the whole thing in the microwave
That should offset the slow cooking and your meal will wind up being done in the time it would have taken to cook it in a conventional oven.

7. Put the crock pot inside the pressure cooker.
Edited on Wed Jan-16-08 10:24 PM by mcscajun
Yeah, that oughta do it. :silly:

There'll be no House left, but the food will cook faster; you might find a meal's worth in the rubble after the blast. :evilgrin:

But seriously a crock pot is for all day cooking...for fast cooking, you want a pressure cooker. Stews and soups and such, Fast. :hi:

17. What part of "Slow Cooker" don't you get?
Next, you'll want to know how to get your microwave to make an "all day stew!"

19. Not when you're starvin'
