Today's video is the first in a series of Salt Lake City authors filmed at the offices of Gibbs Smith, Publisher, during our 2006 Summer Tour. Gibbs Smith is a leading publisher of lifestyle books.

Janet Eyring is a slow cooker enthusiast. She’s the co-author of a cookbook called 101 Things To Do With A Slow Cooker that includes instructions for entrees, as well as atypical recipes such as appetizers and desserts.

Eyring is the mother of a toddler, so she understands the time crunch that many families face when trying to fix a good meal. She believes that we’re in the middle of a slow cooker revival.

In this 2-minute video, Eyring briefly describes one of her favorite recipes in the cookbook, something you probably wouldn’t think you could prepare in a crockpot!
