Question:
What size slow cooker should I purchase?

Answer:
This will depend partially on the number of people you are cooking for and partially on the type of cooking you are doing. For singles a 1 - 1 1/2 quart is ideal. For a couple a 2 1/2- 3 1/2 quart is perfect. For a family of 3 - 4 choose a 3 1/2 - 4 1/2 quart. For families of 4 - 5 choose a 4 1/2 - 5 quart unit. For feeding 6 or more people a 6 quart is the best option. Of course a larger size is a great choice if you want to have leftovers to freeze and serve later. Most roasts also fit better in a 5 quart or larger unit.
