How much does your slow cooker hold? The capacity of your slow cooker refers to the amount the crock can hold if it is filled to the rim. However, we DO NOT recommend filling to the rim. As a rule, you should select recipes that yield 1 quart less than the capacity of your crock. For example, if your Slow Cooker is 6-quarts, your best results will be achieved using recipes that yield 5 quarts or less. Maple Boneless Pork Roast 5 OR 6 QUART SLOW COOKER Place 4-5 lb. (2-2.2 kg) boneless pork roast in slow cooker. Season with salt and pepper. Pour 1/2 cup (125 ml) of good quality maple syrup over pork. Spread top of pork roast with 3 teaspoons (15 ml) of Dijon mustard. Top with 3 tablespoons (45 ml) brown sugar. Cover, insert probe, and cook according to Cooking Guide. Chicken Pieces with Lemon and Fresh Rosemary 5 OR 6 QUART SLOW COOKER Rinse and pat dry 4 lb. (2 kg) chicken pieces. Place pieces evenly in bottom of slow cooker.
