Rival Recipe Smart-Pot Crock Pot 4865-W

Date Published: 10/8/08

The Rival Recipe Smart-Pot 4865-W will revolutionize your slow cooking. This unit has been preprogrammed with more than 200 recipes into its memory. You'll never have to look up a recipe because everything you need--from ingredients to mixing instructions and cooking times--is available at the touch of a button.

Plus, the Smart-Pot lets you select the temperature (low, medium, or keep warm) and enter the exact cooking time for the job at hand. When the set time has elapsed, the cooker switches to the keep-warm setting to maintain an ideal serving temperature. The removable crock has a 5-1/2-quart capacity, suitable for family-size soups, stews, or one-dish meals.

The cooking pot has a unique sculpted cool-touch base with molded handles for safety. A smooth touchpad control panel is easy to use, with up and down arrows that let you scroll through the selections. A digital display shows the selected temperature and counts down the cooking time.

The Rival Recipe Smart-Pot Crock Pot 4865-W is a truly unique appliance is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen. The removable stoneware crock is dishwasher safe; however, the Rinse-Clean coating releases foods so easily you may find that warm, soapy water works just as well.
