We finally got a new Crock Pot! Our old pot had some how broke in half. So these past few years we have been Crock Pot-less. Cooking beans on the stove is a hassle and trial. I consistently burnt my beans. It was a rare and miraculous event when the beans didn't have burnt black bits all in it.
Today, I put some beans on in the Crock Pot for the first time in a long time. I almost forgot how easy it was to set up. I am beyond joyful that I don't have to worry so much about my beans and can focus on other things, like laundry.
Seriously, I don't know why it took us this long to replace our Crock Pot. Were we being lazy or or were we just distracted by the whirlwind we call life? Why?!?!! Burnt beans are a travesty. Yes, they have a smokey taste but it's not the good kind. Those black bits don't taste better over time. It messes with your mind to constantly burn something. You start to question whether you can actually cook, you know.
As you may be able to tell, this is a touchy subject for me. Anyway, feel free to leave a message below.
I remember my first crockpot it blew me away at how easy it made my life with 3 small children at the time.
