• If you are cooking frozen meats (such as roasts or chickens), you must
first add at least 1 cup of warm liquid. The liquid will act as a “cushion”
to prevent sudden temperature changes. For most recipes containing
cubed frozen meat, cook meats an additional 4 hours on LOW or 2 hours
on HIGH. For large cuts of frozen meat, it may take much longer to
defrost and tenderize.
FISH
• Fish cooks quickly and should be added at the end of the cooking cycle,
during last fifteen minutes to hour of cooking.
SPECIALTY DISHES
• Specialty dishes, such as stuffed chops or steak rolls, stuffed cabbage
leaves, stuffed peppers, or baked apples can be arranged in a single layer
so they cook easily and serve attractively.
