To make an easier and less wasteful project, use crock pot liners to freeze them in. Shep them with plastic bowls, seal with Twisties tie and them place several inside two gallon freezer bags. Just remove and stick it straight into the crock. For small cracks, spl
it the liner and you have 2 liners to use.
Thank you so much for sharing. Wonderful ideas.
God bless you.
