 Rice might be better cooked outdoors in a pot, in a pressure cooker, or [[food:cooking:cookware#thermos|in a thermos]].
+==== crock pots ====
+Crock pots (slow cookers) are functionally similar to rice cookers, but are used for low and slow cooking rather than rapid cooking.  For this reason the wattage is (or can be) lower:  75w-250w or so.
+A crock pot with removable pot may be easier to clean but is usually heavier and more expensive.
