Crock Pot Hook Up Connectable Entertaining System Review
This Crock Pot Makes an Amazing Gift for Anyone That Loves to Entertain or has a Large Family!
It’s not surprising that many home cooks consider a slow cooker a “must-have” kitchen appliance. They make it so easy to prepare delicious home-cooked meals with minimal effort.
They’re ideal for today’s busy, on-the-go families because they don’t require constant supervision as they go about their business of slowly cooking fabulous, fuss-free meals. As an added bonus, they keep your dishes nice and warm until you’re ready to sit down and enjoy them.
For these reasons, slow cookers are also perfect for larger gatherings of family and friends. Once you’ve assembled all your ingredients and turned the unit on, you’re free to focus on getting ready and spending time with your guests.
The main challenge with a traditional slow cooker in this setting is they only allow you to prepare one dish at a time, however. This means you will either need to drastically limit your food choices – or use several individual slow cookers to pull off a more diverse menu.
If you don’t like either of these options, you may want to take a look at the extremely versatile and highly practical [easyazon_link identifier=”B00WGZF85O” locale=”US” tag=”dinnerd06-20″]Crock-Pot Hook Up Connectable Entertaining System.[/easyazon_link]
This flexible system allows you to pick and choose from several size crocks in a variety of stylish and attractive colors to fit your decor. Current options include a 1-quart double oval container, plus 2-quart, 3.5-quart, and 5-quart round units. A convenient warming tray component and travel carrying cases are also available.

The real beauty of this system is that it is not one-size-fits-all. Instead, it allows you to pick and choose which size crocks will be most effective for your gatherings. For example, you can use the smaller 1-quart double oval unit to serve your famous spinach dip and jalapeno nacho sauce at your next Super Bowl party or you can use both containers to keep your holiday gravy warm and ready to serve. The larger crocks are perfect for just about any soup, side dish or main dish you desire.
What’s more, each of these units can be conveniently daisy-chained together in a space-saving configuration that requires only one electrical outlet. This is perfect if you are tight on space or short on power sources. When you’re finished using them, the units clean up easily and can be stacked to save valuable cabinet space.

It’s worth noting that Crock Pot is the manufacturer of this system. As the original slow cooker brand, they have earned a solid reputation for quality products and excellent customer service. You may pay a bit more for their products than for some other brands, but they definitely deliver when it comes to overall value.
To illustrate, take a look at verified customer reviews on Amazon.com for the Crock-Pot Hook Up Connectable Entertaining System. As of this writing, this system has earned a very respectable 4.6 (out of 5.0 possible) stars based on 375 reviews. In fact, 88% of reviewers gave this system either a 4.0 or a full 5.0 star review. Reading through a few of these reviews will also give you insight into how other people use their purchase, plus useful tips,such as how to stack the units for best results. (Hint: Start with the smallest unit first!)
Of course, no product is perfect for everyone and the Crock-Pot Hook Up Connectable Entertaining System is no exception. One common issue reported is that the exterior of the units can get very warm or hot to the touch when compared to traditional slow cookers. Another issue reported by some users is that they function better at keeping cooked foods warm than at cooking foods all the way. Not everyone reported this result, but it is definitely something to keep in mind before making a decision.
Bottom Line: The Crock-Pot Hook Up Connectable Entertaining System is a great choice for large and small gatherings, because it allows you to easily serve multiple dishes at once. If, however, you’d prefer a single multi-crock unit at a lower price point, you may also want to check out the Elite Platinum EWMST-325 Maxi-Matic Triple Slow Cooker Buffet. This three-crock model works well for entertaining and larger family meals. If you don’t mind having all three cooking units attached permanently, this may be a great alternative for you.
