A slow cooker (or crockpot) is a fantastic way to easily make delicious tasting items that work best when cooked over low heat for long time periods. Usually crockpots are quite generously sized averaging about 5 quarts. But sometimes you just don’t need a whole big crock of uhmm stuff. That’s where something like the Rival 32041C 16-Ounce Little Dipper Chrome can be extraordinarily useful in your kitchen.

This mini-slow cooker is ideal for making dips, appetizers, side dishes and small servings. It’s football season now and you NEED munchables when you watch the games. Looking to make chili con queso? Just throw in the ingredients per the recipe and let it slowly simmer up. Oatmeal for breakfast? Check. Spinach artichoke dip? You got it. This crockpot is small enough that you can bring it right onto the table and serve your appetizers hot. It’s the right size kitchen tool for small jobs.

This thing is a crock! It’s RoadPro 12 Volt Slow Cooker Crock Pot- a crock pot you can use in your car, truck or bus. No need to pre-cook your meal for the next potluck dinner- just throw all your ingredients into the crock pot, plug it into your car’s cigarette lighter and get on the road. It will cook as you drive! Join the slow cooking movement and make the tender cuts of meat and slowly simmering tasty vegetables all without getting out of your car. And it’s dishwasher safe, in case you happen to have a 12 volt portable dishwasher in your trunk too.
