Scrubbing That Pot Just Got Easier
Posted in Your Home on 22. Oct, 2009
Although I love crock pot meals, the one thing I don’t love is scrubbing the crock pot afterwards. Especially when I make chowder or chili, I feel like I’m always left with a dish that takes forever to scrub. It seems like even if I fill it with suds and let it sit overnight, I still have a nasty mess in the morning with caked on food particles. Yuck.
Lifehacker linked to this great idea from Parent Hacks, and I wanted to pass it along to you. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to using regular dishwashing soap to soak my crock pot (or other pots and pans!) again. I’m not sure why this never occurred to me before, but at least I know about it now!

After a Crock Pot meal, I just rinse the pot, place it in the sink, and fill it with hot water and dish soap. It soaks overnight. In the morning, I just give it a quick swipe and rinse with hot water. I have never scrubbed a Crock Pot.
