Some of you guys are going to HATE this. I was looking to see when it was invented and found that the crock pot was invented by a Jew to cook a traditional Jewish Sabbath meal.
Irving Nachumsohn An inventor named Irving Nachumsohn received the patent for the device that became the Crock-Pot on Jan. 23, 1940. Nachumsohn, who went by the surname Naxon, invented the slow cooker to cook cholent, a traditional stew eaten by Jews in eastern Europe on the Sabbath.
That said, we got ours probably in the late 70's. We still have the original one although I had to find a replacement lid. I'll bet it's served 6 Gorillian meals.

We have one that was my mothers. I'm guessing it's about 38 years old. Wife just stopped using it last year when she got an Instant Pot as a gift.

The one on the way is an oval. Wife says it'll fit roasts better i guess. The old one was round. Tried to talk her into an instapot, guys at work swear by them. But there's a lot to be said for an Off/Low/High switch lol. Just go out and buy one You'll be the hero in the long run. Intapot retired our crock pot.

Got a electric pressure cooker now. Crockpot is retired. Same here. InstaPot, the crockpot is obsolete. Roasts, Stews, Soups in a fraction of the time. Plus beans from start to finish in 40 mins or less.

I wanna say that the one I have (oval) was a gift to my first wife and I on our wedding day which would make it a little over 22 years old. I haven't used it a whole lot in the last 10 years but I've been making a bunch of stew in it the last few months.

Word of advice
Old ladies at church will steal your glass lids.
They either broke theirs over the years or have models with plastic lids.
I’ve lost one at a Wild Game pot luck and another at a business meeting.
BOLO, they come in with foil over their cookers, beware for they are a clever foe. Yepp... after losing two, I chained a old Buick rim to my lids. No more... "Sorry Honey... I took your lid by accident"
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Let's pray Gruff's toaster oven make it into January.
I'd hate for him to wind up on suicide watch. No toaster oven here you fugking fugk You’re prayers only reach the fallen one, he’ll not help you! Oh yeah? Well then explain how I’ve gotten out of all those DUI’s. I 'm sure your girlish figure and eagerness to suck cock played a big role.

Did the new crock pot arrive? It arrived indeed. Looks sharp too. Bigger and oval. With a high/low/warm switch. Switch feels pretty chincy, we’ll try it out this weekend. Thanks for asking amigo.

The Instapot relegated the old crock pot to the garage. It wasn’t vintage though. Maybe 5 years old.
Actually not even sure it’s in the garage. Mighta tossed the POS. lol.

Blackbart, Your obsession with other men's dicks stems from the fact that you haven't achieved an erection in two decades. LOL #miserableoldkghunt
