Performance and Usage

The Andrew James Sizzle to Simmer Slow Cooker is so versatile because it can be used on the hob first to brown off meat or fry off onions and other vegetables before you add stock or a sauce. The removable crockpot can be used on an electric or gas hob before being placed into the slow cooker for the remainder of the cooking time.

The toughened glass lid allows you to see your delicious meals as they cook without lifting the lid and losing heat. Safety is the priority here too, with the toughened glass designed to reduce breakages.

The Andrew James Sizzle to Simmer Slow Cooker also comes complete with a programmable timer delay and 3 heat settings. The timer delay allows you to decide when you want your slow cooker to turn on – allowing you to time it so that your meal is ready just as you walk in at the end of a full day at work. The timer can be programmed to turn off the cooker after 2 to 20 hours, and the three heat settings allow you to control the cooking process.

Adaptable Slow Cooker

The standout feature of the Andrew James Sizzle to Simmer Slow Cooker is that is can be used in so many different ways. Having the ability to sear or saute first means that there are very few recipes that can’t be easily adapted to be cooked in this slow cooker.
