Thank you! I just discovered your channel via You Tube as I was searching for instructions on how to boil eggs in my brand new 8 qt Crock Pot Express. This was my first time using it. I look forward also to trying your chicken and dumplings recipe and various other recipes you’ve shared. Thanks again!
Used this method for the first time about a month ago and never went back to the pot method. This is my preferred way for hard boiled eggs now. Thank you for sharing 😊
After setting the timer to 8 minutes, I became lost. What does she mean when she says "let it come to pressure?" .... Could you simply the steps in between please? I've haven't used my CPE yet, so I'm very new! Thanks! Lol
I am trying this right now. This was so helpful 😊
Made eggs with these steps tonight, and they were perfect! I can’t wait to try all your recipes. Thanks for sharing them :)
Sanders Slithering Ball Pythons thank you so much for the feedback and comment! It’s truly the easiest way to cook hard boiled eggs! Let me know what you make next! So glad you’re here!
Thanks for the recipe. Very nice video.
Thank you so much for the kind comment, Ernie! I appreciate you watching and hope you'll stick around! :)
Just made the eggs. Came out perfect! Gonna make the chili next! Thanks for the vids!
Dave R YAY! So glad they are helpful! Next up is Chipotle Barbacoa! Hope you enjoy my dad’s chili recipe! He worked hard to perfect it!
Tried and verified... A+++++
Milo 270 Awesome! Thank you so much for the review!!! I really appreciate it!
Love this!! Thank you so much for your video! Made them like you said and I got Perfect eggs and super easy to peel! Could you please do one on baked 🥔 ? I would love a vid on making baked potatoes in the crockpot Express. Thank you!! Happy holidays!
Nathalie Angulo thank you so much for your comment! Of course I can do that! I just did one for Mashed Potatoes and practiced with the skins on too! It may take a few weeks, because I have several other requests but I promise it’s coming soon! 💖 Thanks for watching and I hope you will stick around to see it! 😉
@@crockpotempire I sure will! New fan over here!! Thank you! And happy holidays ( even though late) :D
Thank you so much for the message of encouragement!!! And Merry Christmas and Happy 2019 to you, too!
Nathalie Angulo I just finished up a baked potatoes video and it should be up this week! They turned out great!!! Thanks for the request! 💖
Crockpot Empire Yay!!! So excited! I’ll be on the look out! Thx so much 😊
How to do you know when it comes to pressure? Doesn’t the “HEAT” stay on awhile? I have the same crockpot express.
I just got my Crock Pot Express this week and hard boiled eggs were the first thing made in it. I also used 8 minutes (manual mode, low pressure) and they came out perfect.
I did initially have a problem during the initial setup water test, as steam was escaping from all around the lid, even tho on lock position. It seemed the silicone gasket ring had 'stuck' to the lids inner ring over the time 'dry-locked' since manufacture. Loosened the silicone gasket with my fingers and voila! Perfect seal for the egg batch.
BTW, I just came from another UA-cam video showing a guy using a 3 minute setting for 'perfect' hard boiled eggs. No way will 3 min do it!
Thank you for the feedback and glad they came out perfect for you! I love this way to cook hard boiled eggs! So easy and exact every time!!!
I'm not clear on 'let it come to pressure, and then do an immediate release'. Do I release when 'HEAT' goes way? Or when the 8 minutes are up?
Hi mdesm2005 You turn the valve to let the steam out immediately after the 8 minutes are up and the timer has beeped. If this is your first time, I recommend using a spatula or kitchen towel just to get used to it.
@@crockpotempire thanks. I just made the eggs accordingly. They came out as expected.
mdesm2005 thanks for reporting back! I have been doing 6-8 minutes depending upon my mood! They turn out great both ways!
I cant wait to use mine for this alone this was a huge selling point i hated making the hard boiled eggs because mine are fresh eggs from my chickens and one reason eggs wont peel is if they are too fresh. So i had to keep eggs for 3 before they were good to boil and peel or just buy some from the store, the fact the store bought eggs peel better then 3 week old ones is the reason i dont like store bought eggs.
I have always wanted my own chickens...maybe one day! These make eggs that are super easy to peel!!!
When you say to let it come to pressure and quick release, it does mean to let it reach 8 minutes and then quick release correct? Just making sure! I have only done shredded chicken in my CPE so far, and my husband did potatoes and carrots.
Tamara Mink That’s correct! 😊 Easy Peasy!
@@crockpotempire I tried 12 eggs from a 2 tier egg insert in my CPE and did your directions, they came out perfect!
Tamara Mink this makes me SO happy! Thank you for reporting back so everyone can know! I worked hard to perfect it! You should join post this in my new Facebook Group called CPE Crock Express Community! 🤗
@@tamaramink1587 oh man, you've got to cook more stuff!! It gets pretty easy to make different things once you get a feeling for it. I was telling CPEmpire on another video that since I've brought the pot about a month ago, I literally have not cooked anything in anything else since! Good job you guys and keep up the hard work.
OH! And I'm looking to join that Facebook group asap ;)
Tamara Mink thanks for asking this! I get so frustrated with how many creators rush through the details that us newbies need! Lol
If I if I wanted to add small white potatoes so I could have boiled potatoes and eggs would the potatoes get cooked in that time?
Hey!!! Unfortunately, the potatoes will need double the time if not more depending upon their size. You could put them in and then add another 7 minutes after the eggs are done, as long as they are baby potatoes and you want them to be soft. If you don't mind a firmer texture, than 5 minutes will be good. If they are any bigger than baby, I would recommend keeping them in an extra 12 minutes! Let me know how it works combining the two! Thanks for asking me! 😉
My eggs weren’t quite done all the way through, should I add a couple of minutes? And wondering why you chose the rice button? They were easy and good though! Just prefer hard boiled completely done.
D Jamerson only one more minute if you think they weren’t done enough, otherwise they will be overdone with gray rings. Yuck! You can also use the steam button... It doesn’t really matter, but they are the only two that let you decrease to that short of time! 😉
Does it ever countdown or just continue to say heating? First time doing this
It will always countdown! Enjoy your new Crock Express!
Mine doesn't? Just said heating? Any thoughts?
Is it the new Crockpot Express Multi Cooker? If so, it should always count down, so if it's not I would say it is most likely defective. Did you try adjusting the silicone gasket to make sure it is sealing properly? I would do a water test to not waste any food and if it still doesn't count down, I would return it or contact Crock-Pot for a new Crock Express. They have wonderful and very helpful customer service. You can call 1-800-323-9519. Good luck and I hope you get it resolved because it's such a great kitchen appliance! :)
Do you store them in the fridge with the shells on or off please?
I personally always keep the shells on and peel each one right before I eat it. I store them in an air tight plastic container or individual snack ziploc bags to grab quickly! You can keep them like this in the fridge for up to 7 days! If you choose to peel them ahead you must put a damp paper towel at the bottom of the container or cover them with water and change it daily! Too much work if you ask me!!! 😜 Hope that helps! Thanks for a great question and for watching! This is truly the easiest way to cook hard boiled eggs! 🥚
@@crockpotempire Thank you so much. I have only just purchased my Crockpot and am in the learning phase. I am in the UK and in a moment I will cook my eggs as you suggest. Tomorrow being Christmas Eve is a very busy day for me and many many others and anything that makes life easier is on my list. Bless you. Happy Christmas.
I am going to touch Rice /Risotto button for 8 mins. Is that correct.
Bernie C you can also press the Steam button for 8 minutes which I have been using a lot lately! It works really well, too! Either works! You just have to be able to get it to go down to only 8 minutes and most of the meat settings are set at 15 minimum! Merry Christmas and many blessings to you and your family! 🎄
@@crockpotempire Thank you so much. Eggs cooked , are in the ice water and hubby is pacing up and down waiting to try one.🎄
If you are cooking XL eggs do you cook longer?
Cindy Schulting Hi! Great question! I do the same time with all sizes and they always turn out great! Thanks for watching!
HIGH pressure is what the website says, yet it looks like you are using LOW pressure setting here? I'm confused, about to use mine for the first time, if you see this I would sure appreciate your help. =) *I will also cruise through comments to see if it's answered anywhere. Thank you so much~ Samantha in AZ
You can do both and they will turn out fine either way, but I like mine a little less done (because they are so hot they keep cooking) and this is the setting that I prefer!!!
Hi @rv-there-yet I experimented with both High and Low and found this to work best for how I like my boiled eggs! Feel free to use the package insert directions but I felt they were a bit overdone because I couldn’t get them in the water bath fast enough! 💖
Starts at 0:48
Im guessing you do the immediate release after the 8 minute alarm
Thx a lot. I put wiener sausages in it whit the eggs and they come both perfectly cooked out. Works great for me. Have a nice day.
Cooked eggs in crock pot express cook and they are impossible to peel
Used an egg carton and cooked them b4 and they turned out great but don't remember the recipe
Any one know what it is?
Didn't put the eggs in the ice bath. What if you don't have access to ice?
Theresa Morrissey I have also used the egg cartons, but found it made no difference in the cooking process. Just cut the carton in half if you have a dozen or just buy a half dozen to make it easy. Be sure they are not the plastic cartons that so many eggs come in these days! 😉 Put the trivet in, add a cup of water and cook for 5 min with no water bath. The water bath not only stops them from cooking but it helps them peel easier. If you don’t have ice put them in the coldest water you have! Hope that helps!
@@crockpotempire here's a magical tip that I HAVEN'T tested yet in the CP yet but have seen it done in a different device. Basically you put a Tiny little pin hole in the top of the egg, the smaller end, and stand the eggs up in the carton and cook like you would here. 📍 The steam separates the shell from the cooked egg and literally makes the entire shell slide right off after you cool em down enough to touch em. At least that's how it works in the little egg cooking device we have lol. I'm sure it would work the same in the cooker, worth a shot yea
Super cool! I'll definitely try this next time I cook them! Thanks for the tip!
First of all I can't stand the taste of the yellow yolk 🤢. After I tried this method, I love it! Takes the stress out of 'boiling' the eggs. Lol.
Hahahaha! Yeah you either love them or hate them!!! The easiest way to cook both the yolk and egg whites no matter how you like them! 🥚
@@crockpotempire very true! I sliced them up and put them on sausage patties for an 🥚 mc muffin.
@@AndromedatheFated what a wonderful idea! I am trying that this week with my favorite sausage patty and of course a slice of cheese! Thanks for the tip! 😍
@@crockpotempire my pleasure 💖.
Eggs were not completely hard-cooked at 8 minutes. I used large eggs.
Hi Sean! Did you use the Crock-Pot Express Multi-Cooker and how many eggs did you cook at a time? I’m wondering if that may be it? I tested this four or five times before I got the exact timing and 8 minutes was the sweet spot for me and I do this all the time with great results. Thanks for the comment and I would love to see if we can figure this out...there’s nothing I can’t stand more than going to make something that was recommended and it turning out awful! I worked really hard on figuring this timing out and want it to be perfect for everyone! 💖
The time will be affected by the temp of the eggs. If they come from a refrigerator directly the will need more time to cook
Bad idea to put the Crockpot Express on the cooktop !
