Is a sauce pan on a low light as god as a slow cooker.

Please

[ummmm]

I don't think so as the heat comes from the bottom only. With a slow cooker the whole things heats up.

I would say no. A casserole in the oven for a few hours is more like a slow cooker.

It's hard IMO to get the light low enough, so the liquid evaporates and you have to keep an eye on it. I wouldn't go out and leave a pan on the stove but would go out and leave mt slow cooker going. It is more like casseroling in an oven but cheaper to run.

Computer says NO, and God says NO. Try again micmak! (ps made me laugh!).

i would casserole with tin foil over the pot and then the lid - with the oven on s or 1/4

i used to leave pot in oven on low all day before i got slow cooker.

i would do what crisgal would do only I would put my casserole with foil over the top of it andput the lid on in the oven for half an hour on the 200deg C then turn it down to the s setting, this way you can leave it safely for up to 6/8 hours
