A slow cooker, also known as a Crock-Pot, (a trademark that may sometimes be used generically in the US-Canada and Australia), is a countertop electrical cooking appliance that is used for simmering, which requires maintaining a relatively low temperature compared to other cooking methods (such as baking, boiling, and frying) for many hours, allowing unattended cooking of pot roast, stews, soups, "boiled" dinners and other suitable dishes.
