How to Clean the Heating Element in a Crock-Pot

Crock-Pots are kitchen appliances typically used for cooking meals slowly or keeping foods, like soups and hot dips, warm. While the basin of a Crock-Pot, which is typically made of porcelain or ceramic, is usually the part that gets the dirtiest, the heating element can become dirty as well. Take care when you clean your Crock-Pot heating element so you do not damage it.
