Sounds yummy:) I have a question about the cooking time which says six hours at the top, but in the instructions says three on high and six on low. Also, I have never heard of preheating a crock pot. Is that common or something that you have found to be helpful for certain recipes?
I would love to see the answer to these questions also.
