The thing I use my slow cooker the most is yogurt. Works awesome.
How do you do that? Very interested.....

Mine gathers quite a bit of dust. I love cooking dried beans in the slow cooker but for most other things I prefer other methods.
Pot roasty things and stew generally taste better in a large pot where I can brown the meat first, then I add the rest of the ingredients and let it cook in a slow oven. The oven isn't as energy efficient as the slow cooker but in the end the food tastes better because of the searing.
I take 10 minutes or so to sear in a frying pan first, then put it in the cooker.

I don't use my slow cooker a ton, but I'd never be without one. Pot roast, pulled pork, long cook stews etc..
I also love to use it to make Dolce de leche, by pouring sweetened condensed milk into 1/2 pint jars, screw on tops cover with water in the slow cooker and let is go all day on low. The jars come out sealed and ready for storage.
Next, I'm going to try apple butter!
I make dulce de leche in the unopened can the SCM comes in. Good idea using the Mason jars.
