Is it possible to cook corned beef on the "keep warm" setting and what is the keep warm temperature?

I have done a lot of research on crock pots and watched many youtube video on how to make this and that. Every manufacturers temperature setting is a little different, but what you need is a food thermometer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykRnHXwoOic So many of the times on youtube are correct for cooking. It is trail and error.

I'd venture to guess the manufacturer would have the temperature number. As for cooking on the warm setting length of cooking would likely be extended and the temperature must reach a safe degree when cooking any meat. Be careful.

I doubt it, but honestly do not know. I am not sure of the temperature of that setting. Why not write down the number for Hamilton Beach customer Service and ask them?

Yes, at the end of the cooking time, the slow cooker will automatically switch to the warm setting.

I have used mine to roast turkeys and corned beef-using it like an oven. I have also used it to make huge amounts of potatoes for Thanksgiving, using it like a slow cooker or warmer, set on a lower degree.

I do not can, but the product is very reliable. You can cook with confidence that it will be the correct temp.

I don't see why you couldn't set it for 12 hours on low and then reset again and again. I have never cooked beyond 12 hours though. This is a great cooker for everything I have tried to cook which is mostly stews, chili, corned beef and chicken.

about 21/2 to 3 hrs.. Best bet is get an instant read thermometer. Beef is done at 170 degrees.

Your recipe will normally tell you which cure to use, corned beef will be #1 and you'll probably only ever use #1 unless you get into the more complicated recipes. This explains it well enough http://curedmeats.blogspot.ca/2009/04/critical-ingredient-cure-1-and-2.html

Yes you can, just like on a gas stove. I've been using corning amber cooking ware for over 30-years. I won't use any other kind of cooking utinsil.

yes you can set it to a different temperature. I think it just broils though ... used it for Thanksgiving to keep rolls warm.

I got hold of a cooking chart from another brand (Morning Ware). It shows cooking times for fresh and frozen foods. It sets cooking temperature at 400 deg F. Times are approximate as usual for different brands but it is a reasonable guide. I find that you still have to turn meats at least once to even the cooking. Hope this helps. wfc.

The temperature tops out at about 300 °F and would dry out or burn the food. I usually put the food in about a half hour before to warm it.

I find you REALLY have to git 'er done and get the cover closed to maintain heat. I have only used the highest setting so far, and even then the temp will drop if you dawdle just a little bit. However, the flavor is good when you surround the edge of the grate with some wood chips. If you're going to do steak, make sure it's thick. I've done amazing pork tenderloin, ribeyes, filet mignon, fish, chicken...but you have to be strategic with the temperature drop.

I can only tell you, I tried to set it on warm and sometime it would work. I melted the end of a spatula on warm. I returned it to the the mfr. and it was replaced with a same griddle with a black cooking surface that works fine. I am sure that the first one was defective and based on comments I have seen, it's not the only one!

There are 3 main temperature settings: Low, Medium, and High. They range from P1 (low) to P10 (high). Within that range, you can select more or less power (P3 is medium/low to defrost), so the settings are customizable. There are several "feature" settings that do the work for you. Quick minute button (obviously for 60 seconds and a quick heat), Keep warm (keeps food warm for up to 30 minutes after cooking), Popcorn (3 settings within this feature), and More/Less that adds in 10 second intervals. The Sensor features will figure out how long to reheat or cook an item for you. The defrost feature does the same thing after you enter the weight of the frozen item. I hope this was helpful.

I have not tried that as yet and I am not quite sure how long it would take to cook it. I use a microwave steamer to cook corn on the cob. That method takes only five minutes and the corn is perfect and delicious. Each ear takes only half a teaspoon of water and there is no loss of flavor or food value as happens when corn is boiled in a pot.

absolutely you can slow cook, they have medium low and high heats selections, i use medium for the all day slow cooking and when i come in I check it and turn it to low so it keeps but does not overcook.
