A few years ago Rival marketed a crock pot that seemed to answer my
need -- one that had a flame resistant crock that you could start stove
top (brown that roast, chicken, whatever) then transfer to the heating
element to finish cooking slowly. By the time I tried to order it on
Amazon, it was no longer available. I haven't searched for it since
(and I did get a big white oval crock from Rival as a gift that year)
but I've never seen it in stores or advertised since then. To me, that
would make the crock pot something I would use for more than bringing
in a pot luck dish to work for lunch. Other than that, I've little use
for them.
