Karen, I have a crockpot cookbook that suggests things like, 6 chicken breasts in the crockpot, on high for 6 hours. Now, my slow cooker is actually pretty big, a good sized oval, I could fit a whole chicken in there if I wanted, but I don't eat most the chicken so I buy parts.
This is going to read like one of those word math questions or something.... if I wanted to cook 16 (they come in pkgs of 8 here) boneless skinless breasts of chicken in the crockpot, at once, would I
(a) double the time?
(b) some other standard %?
(c) doesn't matter, wouldn't change it (?!)
(d) take it down to low and then cook twice as long?
I have no idea how to "adjust" cooking times in a slow cooker when I change recipe quantity.
I realize you are a world class professional chef and not a crock pot mom :-) but I thought you might know the answer.
Regards,
PJ
