Stupid question about reheating slow cooked food

[mcxuk1]

Showing my stupidity here but if I made something in the slow cooker and then chucked it some if it in a Tupperware container to give to a relative to eat the next night what would be the best way for them to reheat it? The same goes for chilli and spag bol kind of meals?

Microwave.

BBQ - put the whole thing straight on, indirect heat for 2 hours, then smoke for an hour.

Jesus Christ.....


Microwave until piping hot as per the usual instructions.
Or re-heat in a saucepan on the hob.
Or in the oven.

I made a spag bol for the kids a day early, reheated it on the day on the hob and then again a couple of days later in the microwave for myself..


I am now a zombie though.

Why is the initial preparation method relevant in the slightest?

Haha I knew it was a stupid qustion.

The initial method of cooking was just in case there was a better way to reheat in order to keep flavours etc.

Ah, flavours, OK. not so stupid then...on the hob probably best.

Microwave 9/10 would be best in this sort of situation. Cover it with clingfilm esp if it's a bit saucy... oooh errr.
