Crock pot ceramic oven safe.
I tried an experiment.
For example crock pot the brand name that inspired a host of similar ceramic slow cookers now generically known as crockpots tells callers in an automated message that it uses no lead additive.
The black ceramic looking pot smells i mean really stinks.

The glazed earthenware crock that usually comes in a slow cooker the first real brand of slow cooker was crock pot and the name has stuck for some people was fired in a kiln so it s fine with most heat.

Generally a crock pot is made of ceramic and surrounded with a metal casing which houses the controls and has a heating element on the inside bottom part.
Older slow cookers usually just heat from the bottom which can make them less reliable for cooking frozen foods.

You can use it on very high heat in the oven because it is a ceramic pot.
All crock pot slow cooker removable crockery inserts without lid may be used safely in the microwave and the oven set up to 400 f.

For most crock pots the ceramic inner can go into an oven and withstand temperatures of up to 400 degrees fahrenheit.
It was a life saver and worked perfectly.
