Question about slowcooker recipe logistics

[TwinFoxes]

hate to be a pain in the ass but could you provide a link? i just spent 10 minutes trying to google this as well as searching through a year of slow cooking web site. no luck!

has this been done with metal bake ware? souffle ramekins? doesnt the fact that only the bottom part is heated affect cooking? in the slow cooker arent the sides hot too?

im interested but id like to know some more info.... thanks if you can help me find the blog post link!

Me too, not because I don't believe you Nicci, it's just I'm completely clueless and don't want to do it wrong. Or if you've done it, can you just tell me what type of container you've used? I've got some white ceramic casserole dishes that are oven safe, I wonder if those would be ok. I'd hate to put them in and have them crack or something because they're sitting on the liner of the crockpot.

I cook steel cut oats in a bowl in the crock pot. I use a corningware round dish and do a water bath.
