I forgot to say:
I'm lucky in that I have a dishwasher and can be sure that my utensils are nicely cleaned - but my slow cooker pot can't be put in there so I do my very best to make sure it's completely spotless inside and out.
Even with clean hands I still try to avoid touching food at all if it's going to stand for any length of time.Hi, I'm a Board Guide on the Old Style and the Consumer Rights boards which means I'm a volunteer to help the boards run smoothly and can move and merge posts there.

Later I checked the Instruction Book for my slow cooker and it says:-
"Never put frozen meat or poultry in your slow cooker"
Does everybody's book say that?Hi, I'm a Board Guide on the Old Style and the Consumer Rights boards which means I'm a volunteer to help the boards run smoothly and can move and merge posts there.

Yes, and it's sage advice ... however, I'm still here, just ... wiser

it's *my* chicken, *my* slow cooker and *my* risk ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yes please! And could make me some sandwiches for my takeway using home made Cinnamon and Sultana Bread too?
On topic bit:
Another thing I do when handling meat at any time, not just for the slow cooker, is use metal or plastic utensils and boards and not wood. Good as my dishwasher is I wouldn't feel happy about it getting soaked in blood out of a wooden spoon.Hi, I'm a Board Guide on the Old Style and the Consumer Rights boards which means I'm a volunteer to help the boards run smoothly and can move and merge posts there.
