Crockpot Conversions

Here are some handy conversions for my fellow crockpot cooks that I originally shared with readers of my free Healthy Crockpot Recipes newsletter...

Crockpot Conversion Chart
If original recipe calls for 1/4 to 1/2 hour, cook on Low setting for 4 to 8 hours or cook on High setting for 1.5 to 2.5 hours.

If original recipe calls for 1/2 to 1 hour, cook on Low setting for 6 to 8 hours or on High setting for 3 to 4 hours

If original recipe calls for 1 to 3 hours, cook on Low setting for 8 to 16 hours or cook on High setting for 4 to 6 hours.

Depending on your crockpot the Low setting cooks at 180F to 200F degrees, whereas your High setting is around 300F degrees.
These cooking times aren't as specific as one could hope for, but they are the best general guidelines I'm aware of to transfer from non-crockpot cooking to crockpot cooking.

Oh, one more thing, if you have any crockpot cooking tips you'd like to share, use the "Comment" link below. :)
