I cook pot roast and corn beef for 12 hours on low and you can cut the meat with a plate. I remove the meat. The water and slow cooker I place in the refrigerator or in the garage with the lid on in the winter.ust as the the liquid doesn't reduce it also doesn't thicken. You can roll meat in a small amount of seasoned flour before adding it to the slow cooker or use a little cornflour at the end. If you want to do the latter, take a teaspoon or two of cornflour, mix it to a paste with a little cold water.
