Probably dependes on the crockpot for sure as to the setting. I just bought a new one over the weekend that is a little larger and it has 4 settings all by times. I tried the 10 hr setting (which is the longest and I suppose lowest) and it turned out great. I think the neck, for me anyway, has been my favorite cut of meat from the deer since I started cooking it like this. I put it on before I head to work and its done when I get home... Can't beat that lol
