After my experience with the Black & Decker Multi Cooker I won at #Izeafest2015 from the awesome folks at the Pfister booth, I had to write a review. Although the Multi Cooker I received was a prize, I was so impressed with it, I just had to share. The Black & Decker MC1100S Multi Cooker is a 6.5 Quart, Stainless beauty that is super easy to use and clean. I got a ton of brownie points with my wife because she fell in love with it when she saw how easy it was to clean and convenient to use.
I decided to break it in with a 5lb Jennie-O turkey breast. After flipping on the switch, turning the knob to roast/bake and setting the temperature to 325, I was cooking like a boss. All I did was rinse the turkey and make a “rub” with 1 tsp. sage, 1 tsp. thyme, 1/4 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. garlic powder and 1/4 tsp. black pepper. I mixes it and melted it into a tablespoon of butter and brushed it on the breast. I visited every 30 minutes to baste the turkey with the butter and it was done before I knew it. It cooked faster than the package directed and in 2 hours it was ready.
After I snatched my juicy prize and plated it, I was in no mood for cleaning. Every strand of my DNA was calling out for turkey and gravy. Looking inside the empty cooking pot, I thought I was in for some serious scrubbing. I knew I wouldn’t be worth much after my meal so I decided to go in for the kill. Much to my surprise everything just slipped right off the nonstick surface! In just a matter of minutes I had my Black & Decker MC1100S Multi Cooker cleaned up and stowed away for the next time.
This product has a very durable look and feel. I have always been a fan of stainless steel so of course I think this Black & Decker is sexy. All of the parts are easy to clean and it doesn’t weigh all that much either. It’s definitely a lot lighter than the last roaster we had and a lot more compact too.
So, do you want some brownie points? Make your wife a roasted turkey in the Black & Decker MC1100S Multi Cooker!
Ha ha! Now I know what to add to my Christmas wish list this holiday season! Definitely that Black & Decker Multi Cooker! My old one is in need of replacement already! Thanks for sharing your experience with this. Very helpful!
Now, this is an item every house hold must have in their kitchens!!! I am a big fan of the leave it and go meals, and I know the multi-cooker would make my life so much easier. Also, be great with my budget since I can pre-plan meals for the week .
This would be a great kitchen appliance to score brownie points with the wife! I love trying new kitchen appliances I love anything that makes my life easier and I hate scrubbing dishes. This multicooker looks like it would be perfect in our kitchen.
Yay for scoring those brownie points! They are always a great thing to score!! =) I am in the middle of trying to figure out what cooker I want to purchase. I need to get something to make dinners much easier so I don’t always have to stand over the stove. It gets a bit annoying. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Now I can add another to my list of the possible maybes =D
My hubby is always looking for new ideas for cooking more quickly and tastier foods –
He looks for reviews and then he does the cooking for us with the newbies and we both clean up – When I cook, I do it the old fashioned way (since I was once a professional cook) – and we get a variety – I’ll share your Black & Decker Multi Cooker review with him. Thanks!
Serving up a roasted carcass wouldn’t win any brownie points with me… lol! Can this also be used as a slow cooker? Some homemade soup or a veggie chili would definitely earn hubby some brownie points with me : -)
Haha! Great post — this is definitely a great way to score brownie points with your wife 😉 My own partner on the other hand knows that anything that’s related to food instantly makes me happy.
OMGoodness i need one of these in my kitchen NOW!! This looks like it came out amazing and without too much prep or standing over a stove…
