what temp is the low setting on a slow cooker
Older Crockpots used lower tenperatures that kept them below the boiling point for at least the low setting. For best results using the great body of slow cooker recipes, you should use the warm setting, which has a terminal temperature of 165F, and is a perfect temperature for most slow cooking.
Cooking meats in your Crock-PotÂ® slow cooker is perfectly safe. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, bacteria in food is killed at a temperature of 165Â°F. Meats cooked in the Crock-PotÂ® slow cooker reach an internal temperature of 170Â° in beef and as high as 190Â°F in poultry.
