What is a Crock Pot?
A rival crock pot is simply a slow cooker (the trademark Crock-Pot that is often used generically in the US and Canada). They are countertop electrical cooking appliances that are 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 roasts, stews, and other suitable dishes.
Crock Pot History
The Naxon Beanery All-Purpose Cooker was the first crock-pot and was developed by the Naxon Utilities Corporation of Chicago. The Rival Company bought Naxon in 1970 and reintroduced the product under the Rival Crock-Pot name in 1971. In 1974, Rival introduced removable stoneware inserts, causing the popularity to soar. The brand now belongs to Sunbeam Products, a subsidiary of Jarden Corporation.
