Assistant Cook
It seems that whenever I use my slow cooker to make soup or stew, at the end of the recommended cook times the meat is tender and falling apart but the vegetables are still al dente.
Is this just the way it is, or is my crockpot not working properly?
I've attempted to make baked beans from soaked overnight, dried beans and even with almost doubling the cook time, the beans are still a bit chewy.
