Cooking With a Crockpot - How to Convert Recipes to the Crockpot
How many times have you been planning meals and came up disappointed when you discovered you didn't have time to make the meal you wanted? Most people will not even think of putting a recipe in the crockpot unless it is written expressly for the crockpot. Did you know that many standard recipes could be converted to crockpot recipes?
The low setting of most crockpots is around 200 degrees Fahrenheit. The high setting is about 300 degrees Fahrenheit. An hour of cooking on the high setting is about the same as 2 to 2.5 hours of cooling on the low setting. You will find that most recipes for crockpots recommend cooking the food for around 8 to 10 hours on low.
Advice for Converting Recipes to Use in a Crockpot
When you convert a recipe to the crockpot, there are a few tips you will want to keep in mind. You will want to reduce the amount of liquid the recipe calls for. In the crockpot, liquid does not evaporate. You normally wind up with quite a bit of liquid at the end of cooking time. Reduce the amount of liquid you add to the dish by half, unless you are also using rice or pasta.
The spices you use may need to be adjusted. Ground spices may lose some flavor over many hours of cooking, so do not add them until the last hour of cooking. Whole spices will have their flavors intensified by long cooking times, so you may want to reduce them by half.
If you plan to make chicken soup or other liquid-based meals, only add enough liquid to cover the other ingredients. You can add more liquid towards the end of cooking time if needed. If you are making a cream soup, do not add the dairy products until close to the end to prevent curdling and separating.
You can make dried beans in the crockpot. Cook them overnight on low instead of spending the time soaking them. Add your beans and then cover them with water. Add a teaspoon of baking soda. In the morning, drain the beans before combining them with your other ingredients. Bean soup, chili, and other tasty meals can then proceed in the crockpot as usual.
Not All Foods Love Crockpots
Be aware that some foods do not fare well when cooking for 8 to 10 hours. Rice, pasta, seafood, some vegetables, and dairy products are all too delicate for such long cooking times. When making a dish that contains these ingredients, do not add them until the last couple of hours before serving when your pot is set on low. If you are cooking on high, hold off until the last hour before adding these delicate ingredients. If you really must have milk added to a recipe early on, try evaporated milk.
Browning your meat can be done before adding it to the crockpot to add that lovely coloring. Browning may also reduce the fat content a little bit on some kinds of meat. Browning is optional, however. Roasts can turn out very flavorful in the crockpot with or without it

Honey Baked Ham - Cooking Ham Instructions
Cooking holiday honey baked ham is so easy with these cooking ham instructions! Your guests will be clamoring for seconds and your Mother-in-Law will sit at the table in awestruck silence.
You won't need any leftover ham recipes because with this ham glaze recipe and ham baking technique there won't be any leftovers.
Harry Hoenselaar invented the spiral slicing machines for ham. He tried to sell his patent to every ham producer he could but had no takers. So in 1957 he started the honey baked ham company and we've been in love with honey glazed ham ever since.
But you don't have to lineup at one of his stores for your holiday ham because this recipe produces an almost identical product and a whole lot cheaper.
Cooking Ham Instructions
The first step in these cooking ham instructions is selecting the best ham for baking. The best ham is the one the processors have altered the least!
That leaves out canned ham, boneless ham and especially "ham - water added" and "ham and water product". Check the labels and be sure!
I do like spiral sliced for ease in serving though. That is processing but it doesn't affect the flavor like adding water or deboning.
Hams come in three different cuts. First there's a whole ham, which is good if you've got a larger crowd to serve. However whole hams have a tricky bone structure that might make carving more difficult even if it is spiral sliced.
Then there are half hams, which are suitable for fewer people. Halves are either the butt portion, which is the top half or the shank portion, which is the lower half.
The butt portion has a greater ratio of meat to bone but it's also where that tricky bone structure is. The shank portion has only one bone to navigate during carving and actually tastes better to me.
Choose whichever portion you like but be sure the label says, "Ham in Natural Juices". My personal preference is a fully cooked, spiral cut shank portion.
Ham Glaze - Honey Baked Ham Recipe
This is really a simple glaze but the results are outstanding. It's just 1/4 cup of dark corn syrup, 2 cups of honey and 2/3 cup of butter. Heat up the ingredients and stir to combine and it's ready to go.
Since we're dealing with a fully cooked product we're only going to bring the ham to serving temperature as gently as possible.
The beginning of that process is a hot water soak! This will raise the temperature without the ham ever going in the oven. Then we'll use an oven bag for the oven time.
Be sure the packaging has no holes. Place it in a container or your sink and cover with hot tap water. Let it sit in the hot water for about 45 minutes and then drain. Cover with hot tap water again and let it soak another 45 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 250 degrees.
Remove the ham from the packaging and place it in the oven bag. Gather the top of the bag and use the tie provided to tie it. Cut any excess bag off from the top.
Place the package in a roasting pan and punch four or five holes in the top for steam to escape. Put the pan in the preheated oven.
The ham should reach an internal temperature of 100 degrees in an hour to an hour and a half depending on its weight. Cooking time is about 10 minutes per pound. The only way to be sure is with a meat thermometer or instant read thermometer.
Remove it from the oven and cut the bag open and peel it down from the sides. Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees.
Brush the ham generously with 1/3 of the honey glaze and place it back into the oven for 15 minutes. The internal temperature should now be approaching 115 degrees.
Remove it from the oven and brush again with another 1/3 of the honey glaze. Place it on a cutting board and tent it with foil. Residual cooking will bring the temperature to 125 or 130 degrees. Perfect for serving!
Add enough of the ham juices from the oven bag to the remaining glaze to make a nice sauce.
Carve the ham and serve it up with the honey glaze sauce.
Leftover Ham Recipes
In the event you do have leftovers you're a lucky individual. Leftover ham is so useful.
If your family is overstuffed with ham right now you can even freeze leftovers to use at a latter date.
Personally I like just a plain ham and cheese sandwich with leftovers but there are worlds of recipes for creating entirely new dishes from leftovers.
