Sort of -- each liner is sort of single use, but that's for a single menu

Crock Pot liners are plastic bags that can handle the heat in a slow cooker.
You put the liner in, and that makes clean-up a snap, as no food comes in
contact with the crock. They don't affect cooking time or temperature to any
definable amount, so they're also neutral.
I also like them because I

I have been using slow cookers for a long time too. On my first one, the power

One recipe for round steak in the slow cooker that was on this list and
I consider tried and true had three ingredients. Round steaks, onions
peeled and halved, and left over brewed coffee for the liquid. Makes a
real tastey gravy and tenderizes the meat with the acid in the coffee.
