Can you put wine in a slow cooker?
Don’t add too much wine or liquor. Unlike cooking on the stovetop or oven, where the heat is much higher and food often simmers without a lid, wine and liquor don’t boil down and reduce in a slow cooker. Otherwise, use wine or liquor to deglaze the pan after browning meat, then add it to the slow cooker.

Should a slow cooker bubble on high?

Can I put the inside of my slow cooker in the oven?
CrockPot ceramic interiors are oven safe. Just be sure to remove the lid. As a general rule of thumb, crockpots/slow cookers that are made out of very durable “glazed earthenware,” which are made in kilns, can withstand the heat of an oven. These tend to be older models of Crock Pots/slow cookers.
