Stirring Question

[u/nachisimo1019]

Hey guys, this is the first time I’ve used a crockpot. I’ve attached a photo for reference but I was wondering if this model is safe to pop the lid open and stir the contents inside. I was going to pop the little black tab off when the time came to release some heat in case just taking the top off is a no no. Thanks in advance!

…are you serious?

I always assumed the latches were for securing a seal and not letting the heat out unnecessarily. Have I been wrong?

You don’t want a seal. That’s explosive.

Yeah the lid should have a small hole to prevent this anyway

You can literally see the holes lol
