What are the rules about cheese/milk/dairy products in a slow cooker?
Some recipes call for cheese, etc. at the beginning of cooking time.
Wouldn't it curdle or go bad from cooking for 7 hours?
Please someone tell me the best time to add cheese/dairy in a slow cooker recipe.

Just trust your recipes. And no it won't curdle. I've often made cheese dip in mine.

I would add dairy products towards the end. Possibly with the exception of milk if that is a cooking liquid. But I am sure it must be safe otherwise so many recipes would not have been written! Instead of cream, I use creme fraiche which will not split.
Hope this is of some help.

When it comes to slow cookers i.e. crock pot there are really no rules. Since it cooks slow you really cant burn or scorch milk products. I've done cheese dips with milk over night (8+hrs) Never had any problems
