Crock Pot Cleaning

We have a very special guest post today from Crock Pot Recipe Exchange! Ginger is here today to let us know how to easily clean our crock pots without causing any damage to them…..because that would cause anyone major trauma.

The ease of using the crock pot to cook your meals in is undebatable. Sometimes the cleaning  of the crock pot is not so simply answered.The first thing you want to insure you do to make cleaning your crockery easier is to empty any remaining food out as soon as possible. The sooner you get the food out the sooner you can fill the crockery up with dish soap and water.

The only thing I warn against is to make sure your crockery has cooled completely. Drastic changes in temperature of the water to the crockery can cause it to break, and no one wants that to happen.

If you do find that you have stuck on food inside your crockery don’t use anything abrasive including cleaners and scouring pads. If you use these abrasive methods for cleaning your crockery it’s going to scratch it. Which in return is going to A) allow bacteria to grow and B) make weak points which will cause the crockery to crack and eventually break.What you can do if you find some stubborn stuck on food inside our crockery is fill it ⅔’s  full of water and  ¾’s  of a cup of distilled white vinegar. Just make sure you cover the stubborn stuck on food completely.  Then put the lid on and turn it to high. Let the water and vinegar  “cook off” the stuck on foods for at least a couple of hours. If the food was REALLY stuck on you may have to wipe out what has been released and do this a couple of times.

You also don’t want to forget to wipe out the inside of your base each time you use your crock pot. Keeping it clean will insure continued even cooking.Utilizing these simple cleaning methods each time you use your crock pot will guarantee ease of use from beginning to end and will give you and your crock pot many years of happy cooking.

Keep on cROCKin’ y’all!

    Can you totally clean cat urine from a crock pot? A girl in my office is asking this question. While I was aware of using vinegar to remove smells, I’ve never had a cat! 🙂
    Her cat is now an OUTSIDE cat!!!!

    Any thoughts??? Can she use Clorox without compromising the crock pot?

    Thank you!

      Well, I’ve never been asked that before…but the OUTSIDE comment made me LOL. 🙂
      I know that vinegar is effective in cleaning pee messes…so I might soak it with some of that and then give it a good scrubbing with baking soda and water…after the vinegar is rinsed out – otherwise foam city! 🙂

If you hate it, just scroll on by. 🤍 But it was helpful to us. 🥰⠀
⠀
Often, I have a hard time getting my kids to remember things I’ve taught them, like how to properly clean a toilet or clean mirrors. “I forgot.”⠀
⠀
You know what they don’t forget? Stuff they watch on You Tube. 🤪🤪⠀
⠀
So I went to You Tube and sourced kid videos about cleaning the bathroom. The kids all watched them. ⠀
⠀
Now they’re all cleaning their own bathrooms. Boom. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Worked for us. ⠀
⠀
** Just search on YT for “kid cleaning videos” and see what you find. Different parents have different parameters for what they allow. Barry and I screened videos first but each person can find their own. ❤️🤍

Hard times can make us or break us.

Our family experienced some big changes and shocks and pruning (removing) in 2021. Some days I didn’t want to get out of my house or my bed.⠀
⠀
But already we are coming out of darkness into His wonderful light and I can see - I can see the benefits of hard times. ⠀
⠀
New beautiful growth and hope. ❤️⠀
⠀
What is one benefit YOU have experienced from hard times?
This culture has nothing to offer our family.⠀
⠀
I lived for too long believing that hustle was to the benefit of this family. ⠀
⠀
God’s call upon our life isn’t to hustle and grind our days away while we prove our worth and see our success. ⠀
⠀
No, friends. It’s God’s desire that when people look at you and me, they don’t see US or what WE accomplished but instead say:⠀
⠀
Wow, only God did that. ⠀
⠀
The Myers aren’t building an empire. We are building our family, day by day. Tiny moment by tiny moment. 🤍
