Our ancestors figured out something amazing - fire! When they weren't using it to fend off persistent raids by enemy tribes or the occasional dire wolf, they used it to cook. They figured out that cooking food with low heat over many hours produces super-tender meat and delicious smells. The lesson took hold, and mankind has been finding ways to improve the "low and slow" cooking process over the years. Looking back, we can see two critical points in the development of slow-cooking. The first was the invention of a device that used electricity, not fire, to achieve the desired results. It was called a slow-cooker (or Crock Pot(R)), a vast improvement over fire.
The second was the publication of The Slow Cooker Savant (2018). This book revolutionized the world of slow-cookery, selling nearly 25 million copies (if you round up sales a lot) and tied for second for the Nobel Prize for Slow-Cooking. Readers learned that little culinary skill is required to use a slow-cooker to prepare fabulous meals for your family. All you need is a sharp knife and the patience to properly prepare the ingredients - with that sharp knife. And lastly, how to put the cover on the slow-cooker and turn the knob to low. Doing so prepares you to come home to wonderful smells and incredible tasting food!
And now a third historic event in the evolution of slow-cooking has arrived: More Slow-Cooker Savant! Besides its attractive cover, this book builds on The Slow-Cooker Savant, taking you step by step through preparing 52 additional and ridiculously good meals - one for each week of the year. From Beef Bourguignon to Peruvian Lomo here is your newest guide to the easiest and most delicious food you have ever prepared. Get ready to be a dinner hero... again!
