Yes, it's called an oven.

nigga I don't have one

You don't want to literally boil stews and soups for long periods, doing that will make the finished product grainy and cause the ingredients to disintegrate. If you want to speed up cooking of such dishes, use a pressure cooker.

>The intent is to be able to make stews without burning the bottom.
That's literally what a crockpot is for.

Throw that shit in there and let it cook for 8-10 hours on Low or High for half the time.

And these have temperature control?
In any case it's pretty important to be able to let water out for the sauce to reduce.
I assume the electric variety do even heating

>>7400840
Then, buy a device called oven

The crock pot I have can reach boiling. Maybe because it's an older model?

I've had this one since I was a kid so it's probably 25+ years old.

I think newer slow cookers have some safety garbage that limits the amount of heat.

Go poke around a thrift shop or garage sale. Hell, eBay!

Same here; whenever I make a meal with a decent amount of liquid, it reaches boiling temps in the crockpot.

Maybe try looking into another model?

If you burn the bottom it's because your pot isnt heavy enough. Either get a simmer plate or a heavier pot.

Jesus christ, just use a fucking crock pot. That's what they're for.

A slow cooker is not meant to boil, but simmer the food.. if you are not trolling then you should take a cooking class(es)

At first I thought you wanted to cook something at a certain temperature for a long period of time.

Well anyways, I'm still going to suggest a sous vide machinei.

If you burn the bottom it means your using too much heat.

You never Boil a stew anyway, you only braise or simmer them.

Sous vide circulator. Check out Anova. Or use a slow cooker, or get an oven. There's only so many ways to apply heat to an object, so it's pretty hard to do this without an oven

I use a Slow Cooker as my Sous Vide machine by plugging it into my sous vide temp controller.

My temp controller gives the crock pot power only enough to control the temp as I set it. and you keep a thermometer in the water bath.

You can also use this controller with a smaller Rice Cooker or a larger cooler or water chest with a water heater inside.

>>7400827
once you reach initial boil, drop temp to simmer and let it go for 3+ hours. and stir your fucking stew you lazy cunt

>The intent is to be able to make stews without burning the bottom. Reason I'm asking is because I don't have an oven.

I want to make a dish, for which a crock pot would be the perfect appliance to cook it in. But I don't want to use a crock pot, because I'm (Insert your favorite derogatory descriptor here)
