Automatic Stirrer Crock Pot Feature {Is it Worth It?}

By

Have you ever seen the automatic stirrer crock pot feature and wondered if it is worth it? We have tested it out for months and have some insight for you.

Automatic Stirrer Crock Pot: Have you ever seen the automatic stirrer crock pot feature and wondered if it is worth it? We have tested it out for months and have some insight for you.

Cris here.

Mikey (the hubs) always tells people that my crock pot collection is like Iron Man’s workshop– I have slow cookers of all shapes and sizes and features. We have tried crock pots that stir themselves, brown meat ahead of time, have oven friendly crocks, promise not to burn food, cook on your stove top and more!

Given that we run a site about slow cooking (and my obsession with new features) — when I see a new feature on a crock pot, I have to try it. So, naturally when I saw that there were crock pots out there that could automatically stir themselves, I was sooo going to try that and try it I did! I have stirred up everything from our popular Crock Pot Taco Soup to the most ah-mazing hot chocolate ever.

Automatic Stirrer Crock Pot: Have you ever seen the automatic stirrer crock pot feature and wondered if it is worth it? We have tested it out for months and have some insight for you.

Automatic Stirrer Crock Pot Feature: Is it Worth It?

Do I like the feature?

Yes.

  • I love being able to set my soups up with this slow cooker and let it go on auto-pilot.
  • I love that it comes with two different paddles– depending on what you need to stir.
  • I love that you can remove the stirring unit completely if you don’t want it to stir.
  • I love that you can stir anytime without removing the lid by the push of a button– and that it automatically stirs every 2 hours.
  • I love that the plug lets you plug the stirring unit into the same plug so you only use one place on your outlet.
  • I love that it is a programmable slow cooker. (NOTE: Depending on model, some are completely programmable, while others just let you choose heat setting with fixed time)

Is there anything I didn’t like?

Yes.

  • I’m not in love with how the stirring lid fits on the top of the unit. My unit may have had a defective lid but the clips pop off all the time. This does not affect the ability to stir at all– nor does it affect any cooking performance, mainly it just bugs me. If there are clips, they should stay closed when they have been closed.
  • The stirring action does not scrape the sides. This isn’t a real huge issue, but I think it is something folks need to know before purchasing. It is great at stirring up flavors in most any recipe, but it will not be a solution for stubborn recipes that tend to burn on the sides if not tended to on a regular basis.
  • I don’t like that the time and heat settings are not independently programmable on some of the models. (This one IS independently programmable, if that is important to you.)

So, is it worth purchasing a new slow cooker?

Depends.

  • I would recommend the automatic stirrer crock pot feature to folks who need a new slow cooker and enjoy cooking a lot of soups or serving hot beverages for a crowd. If soups are your thing, this slow cooker was designed for you.
  • I do feel this slow cooker really enhances flavor combinations while slow cooking. So if you have a recipe that you’d love to be able to stir more throughout the day, THIS is the slow cooker for you.
  • Because this slow cooker also lets you remove stirring unit, it is a good option as a general programmable slow cooker as well.
  • I am not sure I would make this my primary slow cooker (because I have so many favorites), however, as a part of a collection it is definitely a nice option to have on the shelf.

  3. I would really love to try the Chile Verde soup – I have 2 family-sized mega slow cookers that I use ALL the time for my family of 6, so I might not wait until I have one that stirs itself to try this recipe out!

  6. I would like to try it with Broccoli chedder soup-one of my favorites. As it is a thick and creamy soup it needs to be stirred alot. Also, chili… so many to choose from where do you start? 🙂

  9. As a teacher who works all day and loves soup in the winter it would be great to have a stirrer crock pot for this.

  10. I want to try the Slow Cooker stuffed pepper soup,,,,,it looks so delicious in the picture !!!!!

  13. With a crockpot to STIR for me, I would have to still pick potato soup of any sort. That’s my favorite, but I would definitely start experimenting!

  16. I have developed a recipe for charro beans that I would love to try in the stirring Crock Pot. It would be great to have the flavors blended without having to do it manually.

  18. I need a new slow cooker real bad. Great for us with my mom living with us while I work; easier for her.

    Taco soup yummmmmmmmmm!

  21. I really appreciate your thoughts and comments on the automatic stir feature on a crockpot. I will stick with the regular crockpot since I am now home most days. I love the recipes my file is full of them and the husband loves that I cook something different every day.

  25. First beef stew, then the taco soup and then broccoli cheese soup, loaded potato soup (yum Yum) and I will not forget the chili

  26. I would love to have a crockpot that stirs automatically. I make soups a lot but I also think it would be great for pinto beans or any Kind of beans. They are better when they’ve been stirred a lot, the broth thickens nicely

    • I love new kitchen gadgets! I would love to try this self stirring crock pot. The first soup I would try would be my Hamburger Soup – yum, yum!

  31. I would love to win it and the first thing I would try is split pea soup. it always burns some on the bottom. Maybe not with this little wonder.

  34. First thing I would make would be pinto beans and next would be my homemade tomato soup. Both of these recipes come out best over low heat for longer periods of time. Would to win and test it for myself.

  36. I would so love to win this crockpot! I would make your stuffed pepper soup. I make it all year long!

  37. So many choices – maybe Corn Chowder or Baked Potato to start. The stirring feature would be cool to experiment with. Appreciate the details of your experiences with it.

  49. Wow….I’m really excited about this contest. I have been wanting to get it ever since I first saw it. My family says I don’t need it because I have 2 slow cooker now. They’re so wrong since I continually prepare soups & every new soup recipe all fall/winter/spring long. I would try Curried Green Pea soup.

  54. This would be perfect for Crock Pot Chili soup and NE Clam Chowder soup. Thank you for all the super recipes.

  56. Creamy tomato soup and my husbands favorite….pea soup. Will be sharing with my friends on Facebook and Twitter

  62. I would definitely try chili,. I agree with another gal that said that beans need stirring and attention to turn out well. Chili makes my house smell good on a cold day too.

  65. I would like to try making my sister’s “famous” chili in this crock-pot. It needs stirring and this would be such a help!

  67. Just a funny, if that’s ok:) I can see it now, in the near future a crock pot museum. In your name. Vintage and everything else. People will travel for miles to see this one of a kind museum or just stumble on to it while on Vacation, just like world’s largest thermometer. Funny but it could happen 🙂

  68. I would love to have the stirring crockpot when I make split pea soup and tomato soup. Thank you.

  73. I love soups and need recipes for this winter! I love potato soup and tomato soup, so they would both get made a lot!

  75. I love the Gooseberry Patch Cookbooks! They have such great recipes. My daughter loves helping me in the kitchen, I think the first soup we would make is loaded baked potato soup.

  77. I would love to make broccoli cheddar soup. I am definitely sharing on my facebook now for all to see and join.

  80. I would love to try this crockpot! If I had it, I think the first soup I would try in it would be a yummy potato soup. Then next I would try a recipe for cheeseburger soup.

  81. Although soups are especially good on a cold winter or fall day, I can eat soup in any weather. My favorite soups are ‘hearty’ ones with meats and plenty of beans and herbs.

  84. Chilli is the first thing I would make then soups. Thanks for the contest I love both you n Gooseberry Patch.

  90. I had crock pots for years but never really used them till now. I love the fact the I can come home to a cooked meal. I love this website! So many great recipes!

  92. I love making soup and this would be a perfect addition to my kitchen. I do have a Crockpot p, but having a second one that is a bit different will help me in my cooking.

  99. My family eats a lot of Vegetable soup and Chicken and Rice soup, these are our staple.

  106. This would be a welcoming addition to the crock pots I already own. I love making everything in the crock pot. The soup I would try first of many would be Beef Stew

  111. i have a great recipe for taco bean soup that i would love to make in this pot

    i am also going to share this on facebook

  113. Love the crockpot I have, but this would be great addition, especially with winter coming! I’d love to try the Chicken Tortilla soup or Creamy Tomato.

  114. Your loaded baked potato soup! We actually bought a six quart vrockpot so we could fix it for a group. During the winter, we keep a sack of the dry ingredients ( including oyster crackers) in the pantry and a sack of the freezable ingredients in the freezer. That way, we can fix it at a moment’s notice!

  115. I would love to win this crockpot. My daughter-in-law got one and she loves it. I think I would like to try the Taco Soup recipe.
    Enjoy your website. Love the recipes.

  116. Baked Potato if you please..topped with cheese..green onion & sour cream..Dont forget the bacon! Can you smell the aroma & taste it! All I need now is the crockpot to stir! Yummers !!!

  130. I’m torn – I love to make Chicken Enchilada soup but I’ve been dying to try my hand at Lobster Bisque. I think this would work great either way. Also, I’ve shared this on Facebook – I have friends who love to cook and I think they would love this as well.

  132. Soup is one of my favorite foods. I can eat it every day. I would love to make taco soup in this self stirring crockpot.

  136. I believe the first soup I would try is homemade potato soup. I haven’t had that since I was a kid and I’ve been wanting to try my mother’s recipe out. .

  138. This would be great for my beef barley soup. Sometimes the barley sticks, and I hate messing with the heat to lift the lid and stir.

  148. I have to pick just one favorite soup? Really? I don’t think i’ve ever met a soup I didn’t like…lol I fix and eat soups all year round. Okay, here we go, my favorite soup would be potato. No, no, broccoli cheese. Wait, I do love a hearty vegetable beef. This is way too hard. Grandmother spoiled me. Every week she would make soup from leftovers in the fridge. Never the same, but always good. I’m greedy and don’t want to share, but I will…lol

    • Hi Sharon! Yes it does there are two different paddles to choose from depending on thickness or size of what you need to stir. Enjoy!

  156. I would love this crock pot for taco soup which we love! I’m gonna share this with Tammy Dowdy Davis!

  160. I’ve never had the Crock Pot Chile Verde Soup and it looks different and delish…I’d luv to try that recipe first.
    Thanks for the great giveaway!

  165. If I won the crockpot the soup I would really want to cook is a seafood bisque. I have never made it but would love to try to.

  168. I would love this slow cooker to try cream of potato! This looks sweet, would love it!

  170. Thank you for your review. I’ve actually considered getting a crockpot that stirs a couple of times but was never able to commit. The first thing I’d try in it is my kids’ favorite lasagna soup recipe.

  175. I would make lots of soups in it. The first one I would make would be Hamburger soup. It is a very hearty and flavorful soup. Perfect for those chilly evenings.

  176. I love to cook with my crockpot and make all kinds of soup cream potato is one of my favorites

  214. I would love to make a big pot of chili in this. First thing I crave when the weather starts to cool.

  216. Actually, I would like it not only for my chowders (potato, corn, etc.) but also for the dozens of jars of apple butter, peach butter, pear butter that we make every year. I think it would be fabulous.

  217. I have always wanted to make Loaded Baked Potato Soup… bet that would work well in this crock.

  222. I like soups of any kind, year round. I’m thinking this would be great for split pea soup. If you’ve ever made it, you know why, I would love to be able to leave a soup for a little while, rather than having to watch it so closely.

  226. I would start with oxtail soup and then italian wedding soup. It would be great for my red sauce too.

  229. Hard to think of soup in a hot Texas summer! But I always enjoy a good loaded baked potato soup. :0

  236. My favorite is Irish stew, but my better half likes pepper pot and ham and beans, so the pot would be busy all winter.

  237. There are so many good crockpot soup recipes, but Taco Soup is one of my family’s favorites.

  240. I would cook Beef Barley it is my favorite next to the “Dough” Soup my Mom used to make sounds like a great Slow Cooker.

  310. I would say either a loaded baked potato soup or a hearty bean soup. Those are my fav’s!!

  323. I’d make either a traditional Irish potato leek soup, or a dandy recipe I found recently for Tex-Mex tater soup.

  634. I want to make the Stuffed pepper Soup, it not only looks good I can almost taste it . and the chili ,and the chicken soup My husband loves chicken soup.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to read what I have wrote .

  637. I would love to try homemade Vegetable & beef or deer soup. Love this soup as the weather turns cooler.
    I am sharing this with my family on facebook.

  641. I would love to have the crockpot that stirs itself. I could make all kinds of good recipes. I think I “need” this. Lol

  653. My favorite is all beef vegetable soup. I usually whip it up twice a month with cornbread on the side. Great for those cool days.

  655. The first recipe I would try is definitely your stuffed pepper soup–I love this soup!

  657. I would like to try Taco Soup & Broccoli Cheese. Actually I have dozens of soups I would like to try. I do dialysis 3 times a week so this would be nice to cook hot soups to be ready to eat when I get home…..would be a very nice thing to have instead of those awful canned soups 🙂

  659. I THINK I WOULD LIKE TO TRY THE CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP. THE STIR FEATURE WOULD COME IN HANDY WITH THAT DISH. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

  660. I’d like to try French onion soup in a crock pot?
    Usually it’s a pretty fast “prep to boil” process in my line of work,but at home I’m sure “slow and easy” would yield a richer broth…

  661. My family loves loaded baked potato soup. This would be what I would try first. Thank you.

  664. I have found a recipe for Asparagus Soup -would
    love to try it in the crock pot if I win. I
    have 2 crock pots but I look forward to using my
    new crock pot that stirs itself if I win.

  670. I think I would like to try taco soup, chicken tortilla soup, potato soup for starters.

  677. There are so many great soups it’s hard to choose just one. I think I might start with Potato, though.

  681. I love Beef Barley and also Taco Soups. Would love to know how to make them in a Crock Pot.

  685. Beef, barley, vegetable soup. Then a yummy potato with sausage soup. I think the stirring would enhance the flavor!

  694. I have been looking at the recipe for Stuffed Pepper Soup on this site and that’s is what I want to make next. Hopefully in my new crockpot I win.

  695. I would love to make lasagna soup in my new crock pot. I have never tried it before so what better way to try it than with a new crock pot.

  701. Personally I would try the Taco Soup first; but more than that, I would like to fix my Mom’s salmon/potato soup in a crock pot!

  714. I am loving all the new recipes…..so not sure what I would try first. Sooooo many, but that Peanut Butter Cake looks like something my husband and I would love.

  730. Taco soup!!! It’s my favorite. But I would also like to try pinto beans in it 🙂 I never have luck with pinto beans in a crockpot. Idk if stirring would help or not. I work, so I just turn them on and leave. They are either not done, or too watery lol.

  750. Today chicken and wild rice soup sounds good. A self stirring pot would mean I could leave it.

  751. MMMMMMMMMM, I LOVE soups anytime. I guess I would first try my mom’s recipe for mushroom barley than maybe turkey and wild rice oh and there is also taco soup to try. Oh and I make a mean chicken soup. My list is endless.

  769. I’ve been planning on trying a chicken corn chowder once it starts feeling more like Fall. This sounds like a great way to make it. Thanks for the giveaway.

  776. I would make chicken pot pie soup in this new crock pot and leave off adding baked pie crust sticks so it wouldn’t get soggy.Constant automatic stirring would keep it from burning.

  778. I really like the Taco Soup recipe. But I think the Chicken Tortilla Soup is running a quick second.

  798. Loaded potato soup would be my very first thing…followed by ham and pea soup…then chili…then homemade vegetable beef soup…then spaghetti sauce…then…

  799. Well I would have said Split Pea or Many Bean Soup but looking it over the Crock Pot Taco Soup sounds rather good!

  819. I believe pork green chile with potatoes. Then serve garnished with shredded cheese, sliced scallions and jalapenos,diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, cilantro sliced avocado and a dollop of sour cream.

  857. I would love to try a spud, kale and sausage soup and calm chowder. The 20th is my birthday so here’s good luck to me. I love all your recipes.
