My favorite feature is that you can lock the lid down. This is awesome for when you need to take the crockpot somewhere.
I often use the slow cooker to take dishes to potluck events and this feature is amazing! There are several others on sale here.
Another favorite is this programmable crock pot for when I am am not at home all day. I love coming home to a nice meal ready and waiting!

Tammy – Usually I put the peppers in with the chicken but the peppers do get very soft. So if you prefer firmer peppers, I recommend adding the peppers in the last hour of the cook time.
I would love to try this recipe. But I am kinda confused. Do u put peppers in with the chicken or do u wait till the end?
