In the 70s, you could afford the 10 dollar risk.I think the Instant Pot should have the tag line, "It could be great or it could be a disaster. You won't know until you open the lid."

I believe it has to do with the old fashion pressure cooker using on stove, whereas the instant pot is electric. Factors in play can be heat/ pressure, etc.What' the diff between an Instant Pot and a normal pressure cooker that I've used for 30 years??????
So, the usual. Everything happens for a reason and physics is usually the reason. Every once in awhile, you catch a Devine intervention. I'm gonna have to stick with cast iron. Lots and lots of it. I'm more worried about "them" coming for it than I am "them" coming for anything else.I believe it has to do with the old fashion pressure cooker using on stove, whereas the instant pot is electric.

It's all about "slow and steady release".My mom told me my great grandmother used a pressure cooker and it was loud and scary. My grandmother would say, "everybody out, I'm going to take off the lid."
Hopefully, our Instant Pots are a little safer.

The instant pot also works as a rice cooker, slow cooker, and yogurt maker.
It's great for making chicken and vegetable stock too
One costs a lot more!What' the diff between an Instant Pot and a normal pressure cooker that I've used for 30 years??????
I have a pressure cooker that we bought a couple of years ago - they don't have that little rocking thing on top any more, plus you can release the pressure easier without burning yourself.My mom told me my great grandmother used a pressure cooker and it was loud and scary.

(But then again maybe it is worth it - my old pressure cooker works fine but you have to be careful with the heat so the food does not stick or get burnt).
Yeah. You do not want to skimp on liquid. I sear in another skillet and put the trivet in as well. I'm way more concerned about some administration coming for my cast iron than anything else.My first attempt at stew resulted in BURN. Seriously....it lit the word up.
When you sear food before cooking you have to make sure you scrape all the bits up. I think I did that. But, I was actually using a recipe I use in the slow cooker and I should have added a lot more liquid. In a slow cooker the veggies release liquid....not in the pressure cooker.
Me too but they are a bit expensive - maybe 80 bucks up here (I think?)I am wanting to get an instant pot this weekend.
