# Some say that one may leave fully cooked food in a crock-pot which is on a timer (set from before [[Shabbat]]) to turn on [[Shabbat]] morning and off [[Shabbat]] afternoon, however, some question this. <ref>[http://www.ou.org/webcast_kosher Rabbi Hershel Schachter] (OU Kosher Webcast, min 13-16) says that even though the Shemirat Shabbat Kehilchata is lenient there is room to be strict because the Chazon Ish had a doubt about this. </ref> | # Some say that one may leave fully cooked food in a crock-pot which is on a timer (set from before [[Shabbat]]) to turn on [[Shabbat]] morning and off [[Shabbat]] afternoon, however, some question this. <ref>[http://www.ou.org/webcast_kosher Rabbi Hershel Schachter] (OU Kosher Webcast, min 13-16) says that even though the Shemirat Shabbat Kehilchata is lenient there is room to be strict because the Chazon Ish had a doubt about this. </ref> | ||
