Sous Chef
as it is pretty lame and a bit disgusting.
Now that I have your attention. Probably a year back I cooked a pork roast in my favorite slow cooker. When we were done, it got set in the pantry until I could dump the left overs and clean it. Well, it got covered, buried and forgotten. Today I wanted to do something slow cooked with blackberries and pork, only to realize it had been sitting buried for a long, long time.
Well, you know what happened. All sorts of nasty. Flies, now long dead, and lots of colorful goo.
Now that I braved, or my wife braved the muck, and got the crock clean, we have a problem with the metal ring around the lid. I hate those for just this reason.
So, if you can please not think I am a disgusting slob, is there any way we can salvage it. It is more of an experiment at this point. We cleaned it as best we could, then ran the crock pot a couple hours on high, which pulled more dead critters out of the ring.
Any hope, or should I just turn it into a antique hinge/paint stripper cooker.
If it helps, let's pretend this is all hypothetical. :^ )
