Take the guesswork out of cooking meat, chicken, pork and all your slow cooker recipes. The SCV1600BS feeds up to 6 people and lets you plan ahead with customizable cook times from 30 minutes to 20 hours, with an easy-to-read digital timer that counts down the minutes as your food cooks. When the cook time is done, the slow cooker automatically switches to keep warm mode to keep your meal at serving temperature. Clean up is easy too, with removable stoneware that doubles as a convenient serving dish. It features the Sauté function that enables you to use the stoneware cooking pot directly on the hob to brown meat or sauté vegetables.
